Everyone has an opinion on the Michael Brown case and whether or not police are abusing their power in African American and Hispanic communities in the U.S.
In a cover story for Billboard, Kendrick Lamar offered his take.
"I wish somebody would look in our neighborhood knowing that it's already a situation, mentally, where it's fucked up," the Compton, California native said. "What happened to [Michael Brown] should've never happened. Never. But when we don't have respect for ourselves, how do we expect them to respect us? It starts from within. Don't start with just a rally, don't start from looting -- it starts from within."
Those comments didn't sit well with outspoken Harlem, New York rapper Azealia Banks. She took aim at Kendrick in a long Twitter rant.
**UPDATE** January 11
Welp, all hell has broken loose on Twitter. Lupe Fiasco sent out a tweet in support of Kendrick Lamar. Azealia Banks saw it and responded starting a verbal sparring session.
Rather than outright insult Banks, Lupe responded to everything she said with a series of hilarious pictures with captions reminding her that she was once a fan of his and copied his style.
Let's get started, shall we?
Then out of nowhere Kid Cudi jumped into the battle sparking a war of words with Lupe.
Well, damn!!
