Azealia Amanda Banks was born on May 31, 1991, in New York City’s Manhattan borough; she was the youngest of three.[5][6] Her single mother raised her and her two siblings in Harlem, after their father died of pancreatic cancer when she was two years old.[7] Following her father’s death, Banks says that her mother “became really abusive—physically and verbally. Like she would hit me and my sisters with baseball bats, bang our heads up against walls, and she would always tell me I was ugly. I remember once she threw out all the food in the fridge, just so we wouldn’t have anything to eat.” Due to escalating violence, Banks moved out of her mother’s home at age 14 to live with her older sister.[8]
At a young age, Banks became interested in musical theater, dancing, acting, and singing. At 16, she starred in a production of the comedy-noir musical City of Angels, where she was found by an agent who sent her to auditions for TBS, Nickelodeon, and Law & Order, all without success.[9] At this point Banks decided to end her pursuit of an acting career, citing the stiff competition and overall sense of nonfulfillment.[10] Because of this lack of fulfillment, she began writing rap and R&B songs as a creative outlet. She never finished high school, instead choosing to embark on a career as a recording artist.[5]
Ok, so she got her start fucking her way into roles and doesn’t want to admit that it was wrong. This is where a lot of those Epstein Island kids end up. That’s why you don’t hear as many testimonials as you think you should. They got gaslighted into thinking it was normal.
If she was having sex with people to get roles at 15 or 16, that makes her a victim with a vulnerable background exploited by people with power and opportunities.
You’re acting like a teenager with no real world experience made a plan to climb the career ladder using sex is more likely than a child without stable future job prospects was groomed by pedophile entertainment industry producers, exploited, and happened to be one of the lucky ones that had a career at the end of it.
“she started fucking her way into roles” doesn’t sound like you’re talking about a child. This framing comes across as she was intentional an conniving instead of a victim.
You’re free to interpret it that way. I’m stating it that way because that’s what I would tell her to her face after sticking up for Donald Trump. If she wants to believe she had agency at that age, I’ll call her out as if she did.
If there isn’t actual evidence that someone used sexual favors to get where they are, that’s honestly a pretty sexist assumption to make about a person, since it’s an assumption only ever made of those who were AFAB
Don’t feel bad, I’m bad about skimming without really realizing I’m doing it and that was like the one sentence I auto piloted over first time reading it. I was like “yeah that’s a weird thing to say but, that’s a stretch to say this means that.” Then I reread and was like “oh. Oh my.”

She absolutely was a victim when she was a child, but now she’s an adult advocating for continuing the cycle of abuse.

Literal fatherless behavior. It’s sad.
