Azealia Banks is throwing away her "barb card."

Does Azealia Banks actually like anybody? It appears that she's only making headlines when she's dissing someone new or going after one of her usual targets. After canceling her upcoming album from the backlash of her Wild 'n Out appearance, Azealia is back on her hating grind by going after Nicki Minaj and 6ix9ine. While she usually finds a way to diss Cardi B, she left the new mother alone to focus her attention on the "FEFE" co-stars. Many of the posts have since been deleted but XXL found some screenshots and let me tell you, Azealia is not happy.

Banks was taken aback after hearing that the "Chun-Li" artist had collaborated with 6ix9ine, who has admitted to his involvement in a sex crime against a minor. While he is working hard to reshape his image, he has not gotten on Azealia's good side at all. The female emcee tweeted, "Too much for me. I’m deleting my barb card membership. She is officially over. Pedophilia is absolutely gross and evil. Anyone who supports that shit is a lunatic. I'm sorry. Dude gets convicted and you’re still trying to help him out of it? That is very dark."

While Nicki's feature does not mean that she "supports pedophilia" at all, we do see Banks' point. However, she is possibly overreacting when she compares the act to working with David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. "I’m convinced some rappers would collab with David Duke if they felt it would chart. Despicable," wrote the rapper.

All of the Instagram stories have been deleted but the majority of her tweets remain on her page. Do you agree with Azealia?
