The artist, who is very outspoken on Twitter over the challenges facing not only black artists but black women in general, began a Twitter tirade on Monday criticizing Beyonce's new visual album Lemonade that dropped over the weekend and has been roundly celebrated by for its black female empowerment messaging. (The track "Don't Hurt Yourself," for example, features a quote by Malcolm X that "the most disrespected person in America is the black woman.") Banks posted on Twitter that Beyoncé was a "thief" who "poaches art from other black women." She added that the "heartbroken female narrative" in Beyoncé's album "was an antithesis of feminism." Coming from the perfect role model for black females of course ~ Is there any truth in her comments is this one of (many) off the wall rants from a quite clearly ~deranged~ internet lunatic.

But also she was praising Beyoncé only a few months ago for "embracing her blackness" when 'Formation' came and some critics were going for it. I do not understand her lmao.
