Multiple reports say rapper Azealia Banks is facing public backlash after posting or making comments described as “sick” about people connected to the Belfast attack, including a victim and a “hero.” The Irish Independent and Belfast Telegraph both report that members of the public criticized Banks for the nature of her remarks and for the way they were perceived to relate to the incident. In the reactions cited by both outlets, critics question Banks’ conduct and express anger at the content. One commentator calls her a “complete embarrassment,” while another asks, “What is wrong with you?”
Both sources describe the controversy as centering on the tone and appropriateness of the rapper’s comments rather than providing details of specific factual claims she made about the attack. The reporting focuses on the scale of online or public condemnation and the negative responses to her statements about individuals linked to the event. The outlets do not indicate any resolution at the time of publication, and the criticism continues to be framed around the comments themselves.
