Harlem, New York rapper Azealia Banks melted down while on board a Delta flight from New York to Los Angeles on Monday, September 21.
According to TMZ, the 24-year old, known best for her many Twitter beefs and the song "212," became angry while exiting the plane. She attempted to pass a French couple who were in front of her and the man put up his hand.
Banks allegedly responded by spitting in his face, punching him in the face and clawing at his shirt.
Someone begins to film after the first incident as Banks demands that a flight attendant let go of her luggage.
Give me my bag fucking faggot," she says.
The rapper insists that the French passenger sparked the entire thing by putting his hands on her first. She defended herself via Twitter against the homophobic slur.
Witnesses on the plane dispute Banks' version of events. Police spoke with the French couple, but they declined to press charges because they are on vacation and didn't want any more trouble.

One of the UFC's most exciting fighters, Nick Diaz, was recently suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission for 5 years following a 3rd positive test for marijuana. He was also fined $165,000.
Fellow athletes and fans have overwhelmingly shown their support for Diaz, calling the suspension way too harsh for a non performance enhancing drug.
“If one person tests for steroids, that could actually really hurt a person, and the other person smokes a plant that makes him happy, and he gets suspended for five years! Whereas a guy who could hurt someone so much that he could’ve died in there [and] he gets a slap on the wrist! It’s not fair. It’s not fair at all," said Ronda Rousey.
Diaz is now getting support from retired boxing championFloyd Mayweather Jr., who was incredulous when told the news.
“Man, let that man smoke weed and enjoy his life,” Mayweather said.

It hasn't even been a month since Ohio rapper Slim Jesus has garnered the attention of just about everyone in the hip-hop industry, and already he's attracted haters and comparisons to legends. When asked how he feels about being compared to Eminem, the "Buck Buck" emcee says they only have one thing in common. "The Eminem comparison is literally just 'cause we're White. We don't make the same kind of music [and] I don't rap the same," he expresses. "People stay talking about, 'Yo, has Eminem tweeted you yet?' No, and that s*** probably won't happen 'cause we're on completely different, like, bars...I'm not lyrical, I'm ignorant."
Slim Jesus also addresses the fake pages that have instigated beefs between him and other drill artists. "Oh that Lil Mister s***, let me clear that up real quick," he begins, referring to the Chicago rapper who was allegedly sent a message by Slim. "That's fake pages, man...All I have is a Twitter, @TheSlimJesus, that's it. That's all - anything else is stupid."
You can also find out what you should do if you're attempting to sign him. "Everybody's gonna call me offering a check, but it's about what you can do for my musical side," Slim Jesus advises.

A Los Angeles woman has named Rick Ross in a lawsuit alleging she was raped even though she acknowledges the rapper didn't take part in it.
According to TMZ, the assault took place during Grammy weekend earlier this year.
The woman, identified as Jane Doe, says she met Rick and several members of his entourage at the W. Hotel. She accepted an invite to the Cannibus Cup and got into a van with the MMG boss, a man named Thaddeus "Black" James, a DJ, 3 security guards and the driver.
After drinking an alcoholic beverage the victim reportedly passed out. When she woke up 2 hours later she was alone in the van with Black.
She went back to Black's hotel room where she passed out again. At 8 a.m. she woke up and realized she had been sexually assaulted.
Doe accuses Black of raping her. She also names Ross because the van belonged to him and Black is his agent and should have been supervised.

Though Meek Mill got on stage in Camden, New Jersey and called out fellow Philly rapper Ar- Ab, him and his OBH affiliate Dark Lo didn't take it too much to heart despite firing back with a diss track. "Everybody that he talk to know my direct phone number," Ar-Ab tells us. "If it was any type of problem, any situation, you could've just called my phone and said 'Yo, it's a problem,' like a man. And then we could figure it out from there - however we gotta figure it out."
Ar-Ab - who has been given quite the look since Drake shouted him out on "Back To Back" - says these days, beefs end up a lot different compared to the way he usually goes about them. "You gotta worry about people screenshotting your text messages...I don't do stuff like that," he states. "I got killers, they don't do stuff like that." Him and Dark Lo also feel Meek's diss actually benefited them in the long run. "When he got on stage and said that, I wasn't really bent out of shape or surprised by it. But you know as far as rap go, I had to say my little s*** back. But it was nothing," Dark Lo tells us during this clip.
