Azealia Banks has been known to use language most people might find objectionable, having been banned from festivals for her words and saying some racially insensitive things about Zayn Malik. Now it appears that Banks is ready to put that behind her, as she issued an apology on Facebook, which she opened by writing, “Ok, i’m never saying the word F****T ever again.”
“The amount of people that get hurt when i use the word vs. the amount of people i’ve said it to are just not worth it,” she continued. “Honestly… This isn’t a cop out, its just me realizing that words hurt. and while i may be immune to every word and be thicker skinned than most, it doesn’t mean that i get to go around treating people with the same toughness that made my skin so thick.”
She concluded her message by apologizing to and thanking her fans: “To end this note i want to SINCERELY apologize to my fans for having let so many of you down over the years. I know that you all want nothing else for me but to see me win, and i thank the many of you who saw the beauty in me and have stuck around this far.”
As of now, Banks’ Twitter account remains suspended following her unsavory words about Zayn.
