Harlem, New York rapper Azealia Banks has a problem with the amount of media coverage the now squashed beef between Snoop Dogg and Iggy Azalea received.
Banks has been beefing with T.I. and Iggy since 2012. As we reported at the time, Banks threw shots at Iggy and the Grand Hustle CEO came to her defense.
The beef escalated in June 2014 when out of nowhere Banks started dissing T.I. and his wife Tiny over Tip's song "No Mediocre."
“U want no mediocre but … Have you seen your wife?” she wrote at the time. "The n*gga shouting bad b*tches this bad b*tches that, is almost always at home with some busted bumpkin. rap is not real. These n*ggas are all fronters. But your wife has meth face. And your wife can't read."
Banks continued throwing darts until T.I. finally responded via his Instagram account.
"U musty-mouthed-thot-bot-bad-body-syphilis-lipped-r*ctum-vomit-unimportant-ugggggly-monstrosity-of-a-maggot-a$$ BIIIIIIIITCCHHHH!!!!!! If u speak ill of my family again..... I WILL END YOU!!!!!!," Tip wrote. #OnPHIL #OnDOE#NoBuuulllshit people fall down stairs daily.... U better watch yo step,u ungly-a$$ Gremlin-baby#nerveofdisCretin #fuckouttahea."
On Wednesday, October, 15, Banks referenced T.I.'s reply and wondered why there wasn't a media outcry for what she perceived as a threat against her.
"Where was the white media when T.I threatened to push me down the stairs though?" she asked.
She later threw another shot at the rapper.
Do you believe there is a double standard in the way the media has covered both beefs?

Bobby Shmurda's meteoric rise has gained him lot's of exposure and popularity. His recent network television debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon raised his profile even more.
However, a big problem for the 20-year old Brooklyn, New York rapper is that he may not have had time to build a solid business team to help him look after the money that is pouring in.
“Nah idgaf I’m doing all theses show not getting ma money dey got me doing shit every fucking day so its hard to keep up Witt dis shit den I ain’t got nobody to trust ain’t no help in dis bitch I’m ready to go back to da trap be4 jail #RNS dats how I feel foh," he vented on Instagram, before deleting the post.
No matter how quickly a message, video or photo is deleted from social media somebody will always catch it. As was the case with the message above.
Bobby's debut EP entitled Shmurda She Wrote arrives on November 10. Hopefully he can get the business side of things worked out by then.
Props to Kollege Kidd

The Snoop Dogg vs. Iggy Azalea beef is over, thankfully. T.I. spoke with Snoop Wednesday, October 15, and the two reached an agreement to put an end to the dispute.
T.I. has a very close relationship with Iggy and considers her to be part of his Grand Hustle family. Snoop is a boss in his own right and has earned legendary status in the game. Glad things worked out positively.
Iggy tweeted that it was time to move past all the back and forth insults
Now that things are back where they should be, can we get a Snoop/Tip collaboration?

From their humble beginnings as hip hop's underdogs, to taking over the rap game, world tours, platinum selling albums, feuds with other crews, taking time away from each other then reuniting on the 2014 Summer Jam stage, G-Unit has seen it all.
Kidd Kidd, Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks recently sat down with Jason Bisnoff of HipHopDX to discuss G-Unit's past, present and future.
HipHopDX: On this new album we hear you guys singing over beats and hooks like "0 to 100" and"Grindin' My Whole Life." How would you compare it to 2003, when you were quick to take beats like "Right Thurr" and "Play No Games?"
Kidd Kidd: That was just songs that we just freestyled over. It wasn't on the album. I can't speak for the run in '03, but I can speak for 2014, and man we grindin'.
Lloyd Banks: It does have it's similarities as far as the rate that we're working, ‘cause in the very beginning we used to just go in the studio. That's probably why I record that way to this day. I got songs I just write down and prep myself before I go in there. I don't like to waste money in the studio. That is kind of like how we've been. We went back in there and did "0 to 100" the freestyle, we did the Jeremih joint, we did Chris Brown, and we did "Grindin' My Whole Life" remix. They all were connected and I think people were reminiscent of the days and the rate we were putting out music in the very beginning, before the record deal. We were able to basically hit current events that way because if something happens – like if the Knicks were to win a game – you could be like, "Something, something something like the New York Knicks." And it would be effective because you don't have a time limit on when to put it out. You don't have to wait eight months like you do on a major. I think that is the main part it reminds me of, the grind and the way we were putting so many records together at that time.
How G-Unit Benefits From Southern Rap Fans & Reuniting At Summer Jam
DX: A lot of New York rappers are trying to integrate the Southern sound in major part due to the South's prominence in between your run in '03 and now. How does it help to have Buck and now Kidd Kidd bringing in an authentic Southern sound?
Tony Yayo: The way I look at Hip-Hop is it always transitions. From the beginning of time, you had a point where it was East Coast, and then it was West Coast. Then you had Paul Wall and them in Texas, and it was going towards the Texas Rap, then St. Louis, Nelly and everybody. I just think it goes from different places and places around the world. It just goes from New York to L.A. I think Hip Hop really transitions, and I just think having those two guys here, one from Tennessee, one from N.O., I always liked Southern records anyway. We don't have nothing against the South. We played in the markets. I remember when we first came out they thought 50 sounded like he was a Southern rapper. You understand what I'm saying? It was cool. We were going to Atlanta, New Orleans, and all these places and performing ‘cause I felt like G-Unit is one of the biggest groups worldwide. We broke worldwide, and it wasn't like we were just playing in this one market. The records that we were making, people loved from everywhere, even when we go out of the country.
Kidd Kidd: Coming from the South, to me they never sounded like Southern artists. We respected their music ‘cause it was real and authentic. When you listen to G-Unit music, all their music is G-Unit music. There is no other kind of sound like that. Even today, in this game there is no other sound like that.
DX: Kidd Kidd, how much did getting on "Irregular Heartbeat" with 50 Cent and Jadakiss prepare you for getting in the studio for the EP?
Kidd Kidd: For me, this is my dream. This is something that I woke up three-years-old watching TV and saying this is what I wanted to be. So I just work hard on it and do what I have to do. I already know that I can bring it to the table though I know I gotta work twice as hard for it because I'm among legends. I'm among legends right now, so every time I'm in the studio I'm just thinking I gotta be ready. I gotta spit some ill shit.
DX: What did the reunion at Summer Jam and working on the EP feel like?
Kidd Kidd: Real talk, it wasn't like me seeing them for the first time, I always ran into Banks in clubs and stuff like that, Yay was around when I came around. Just to have my name mentioned in the same breath as G-Unit, and to be a part of the whole situation, think about that. I'm on stage with legends. We got Nas in back of us. I had so many paused moments on the stage where I had to stop and really just look around like, “I'm really right here.” Think about it: this is me from ninth ward, from nothing, and I'm like, “You got Banks right here, and you got 50 Cent. You got Yay right there, and you got Young Buck.” I grew up on their music. Just to bring it back to the question of what it felt like, Yay is like my mentor, and he tells me everything like, "You know we about to do this kid, be ready boy."
Tony Yayo: To me, it felt like magic again. When we came out there to that crowd, like Banks always says, "It's bigger than us." I can be mad at Banks, Banks could be mad at me, and 50 could be mad at us or whatever it may be. But the fans will hit your page and kill you like, "Yo, you gotta get back together...I know y'all coming out for Summer Jam." Music, man, has so much power to it. You can be in a whole other country, mothafucka don't even know English, but they know your song. That shit amazes me.
Lloyd Banks: Summer Jam is always crazy. Your legs are not gonna feel normal. Since the first time I did that, that crowd is ridiculous, and under the circumstances, the performance was crazy. Ten years is a long time for one, and us not recording together in 10 or 11 years was crazy. I hate to be selfish, but I kind of embraced that as our moment. I had to take that in because you don't even touch that stage just minus anything. There are artists who come and still won't be able to touch that stage, and if they do it's like daytime.
Tony Yayo: I told him when we did the Funkmaster Flex freestyle he was like, "This is on my Rap bucket list." I'm like, "Motherfuckers we gotta go up there and teach 'em what Hip Hop is about." It's one thing people don't know about G-Unit. Me, Banks and Kidd Kidd is fuckin' Hip Hop. [Kidd Kidd] is from New Orleans. I forgot what song came in, I think it was the Nas song where he talked about being a gun [“I Gave You Power”], and this mothafucka goes in like, "I'm seven inches, four pounds, I been through so many towns / Ohio to Little Rock to Canarsie, living harshly." It is Hip-Hop!
We was in Belgium, and we saw KRS-one. People think just cause we are G-Unit and we sold all these fuckin' records that we are gonna have fuckin' egos. [Banks] had Rakim on his fuckin' album. You know how big that was for him? You know what I did when I saw KRS-one? [I said], "Yo big homie! You the only guy that dissed Queens and made it look good, and I'm from Queens." He started laughing, and 50 is the same way and running down on 'em. It's big for us. It's Hip-Hop man. When Biggie and 'Pac was going at it, it was a bad thing cause they both died but, man, when 'Pac spit at that camera man and when Biggie came out with "Who Shot Ya?" I got chills in my body listening to that in the car, like, "What the fuck!" It's Hip Hop man. Talk about when Banks saw Tupac, how old was you?
Lloyd Banks: I saw 'Pac perform when I was like 11-years-old. It's funny because my story started with 'Pac, like that was the first performer I saw. And then Nassau Coliseum in 1996, the day he died, I was on my way to that concert in Long Island with Nas, The Fugees, The Firm, AZ and Foxy.Bone Thugs was there, Keith Sweat was there, and he got booed a few times. That's Hip-Hop for you, though. I never forget when Ed Lover came to the stage and Nas took like five minutes out his set to give a rest in peace salute to Tupac. I'll never forget the whole building just dropped. It literally felt like it sunk in, and from that day I was like my first show in New York stadium wise was the same Nassau Coliseum, and I put my mother in the same section we sat in. I told her I was gonna be up there the night that Tupac passed. It was crazy how I was able to complete that story.
Tony Yayo Says The Internet Helped Improve New York Hip Hop
DX: You guys talked about the fans pushing for this reunion. How much did the split up and reuniting work as a positive?
Lloyd Banks: I think even if it wasn't a split, like I'm excited for Bad Boys III, they working on that now, and I don't even know when Bad Boys II came out. I just know it was damn near 10 years ago. I just feel like that excitement would have been there regardless, and, truth be told, we spoiled our fans. Nowadays you'd be lucky if you get an LP from your favorite artist every two years. We was giving so much material out. Our mixtape catalog is probably 20 mixtapes or more. I think they just go so used to hearing us flood the gates, and the way things have changed, the way to make money with things is to be a little bit more strategic. Being independent is what's enabled us to go out there and kind of attack the way we did before. When Interscope and all the big machines got involved they told us, "Don't do mixtapes. Don't do this. Don't do that." We get a chance to, not rewrite it, but continue the page.
DX: How is this a good time to bring back the aggressive, gritty sound you guys helped pioneer with Auto-tune and love songs being so prevalent?
Tony Yayo: I feel like the whole game changed. Me and Banks come from an era where going to the Hit Factory was big for us. Going to these studios like the Quad... Once I saw the Hit Factory shut down and started seeing the record stores shut down... We used to do signings and people actually buy the CD, and it was just a different feeling when someone came in to buy your CD. It could be a mothafucka from suburban Long Island or a mothafucka from the corner in Brooklyn. They were reading the credits, and there was more of an excitement. Now everything is just more digital. You got groups like Odd Future, and I was on Odd Future years ago. They're one of the groups where these guys don't get any radio play, but these guys got GRAMMYs, money and go on tour. There are so many people who are going the independent route like, "I don't even need a label." Mac Miller and these guys are making millions on their own. This digital shit is a gift and a curse, like I say all the time. It's definitely a good thing at times, and it can definitely be a bad thing. But I think there is not timing with the Internet. You can drop whenever you want to drop. You can drop a record tomorrow saying, "New Lloyd Banks" and this shit is in Paris and Germany. There are times when we go overseas [and they shout], “Play Cold Corner.” I wouldn't think that shit got as far as it did, but shit man the power of the Internet is amazing.
DX: What do you think about the state of New York Hip Hop right now?
Tony Yayo: I think it's great. I think it's coming back to that New York sound. People love the South music, and there are people who love that New York sound. I think after the Trinidad James thing, it was like a smack in the face to New York City deejays. Saying, "New York is irrelevant,” and he's on a New York label. He's on Def Jam. I wouldn't even have the balls to go to New Orleans, Chicago, or Atlanta and be in the markets and say or do nothing like that. It didn't make sense to me. But after that, Trinidad James kind of changed the whole New York Hip Hop scene. Then deejays were like, "We gonna start supporting our artists more." People were getting at the radio stations more saying, “We wanna support our artists.” I really think it comes from the deejay, the record plays and the spins. There are so many New York artists that have been hot for years that you would never know about because they not getting played on radio. Now mothafuckas are going on the Internet, Thisis50.com and all these fucking websites and getting themselves out there. I feel like the state of Hip Hop for New York is better now because of the Internet. We never would have knew who Joey Bada$$ is or Flatbush Zombies are if I didn't see them online, ‘cause they don't get too much radio play. But they have a fan base, they are selling merch, they are doing shows, tours and making money.
