Hackers Group Anonymous Threatens to Release Iggy Azalea’s Sex Tape Unless She Says Sorry to Azealia Banks

Cyber vigilante group Anonymous is threatening to release Iggy Azalea’s sex tape unless she apologises to Azealia Banks. The Australian rapper is being accused of “misappropriating black culture, insulting peaceful protesters and making light of Eric Garner’s death.”

It seems Anonymous, or at least an offshoot of the infamous group, has taken sides in the Azalea v Banks Twitter war. A string of messages from @TheAnonMessage has been posted on Twitter, and the intention is clear: The group wants Azalea to say sorry to Banks if she wants her sex tape to remain private.

Azalea and Banks have been exchanging insults for weeks, apparently ever since the American hip-hop artist called out Azalea for not speaking up on the injustices against black people but claiming to be part of black culture. More recently, Banks took a shot at Azalea once again in an interview in “Ebro in the Morning” on Hot 97 radio, saying Azalea, who is white, isn’t better than any black girl who raps; hence, Azalea should be included in the Pop category of the Grammy Awards, not in the Rap.

Banks also had an issue with the country focusing on the rape allegations against Bill Cosby when there are injustices that are happening against black people. She claimed that it was “timely” the Cosby controversy was brought out when there are other issues about black culture out there that need attention.

Apart from Azalea, Banks has a problem with rapper T.I., Azalea’s mentor. “You out here trying to promote this white b----. They got your wife on VH1 and that bitch can’t f------ read.”

Azalea then replied to her tormentor in a “special msg,” saying that while many black artists succeed in all genres, Banks remains a failure because of her “piss poor attitude.”

“You’re poisonous and I feel genuinely sorry for you because it’s obvious at this point you are a miserable angry human being. Regards!” she wrote on Twitter, urging him to rant more and make her complaints seem racial and political.

TheAnonMessage hackers weren’t pleased with Azalea’s response to Banks, and therefore made it their mission to give her a “one-way ticket to a life of suffering.” They called Azalea a “trashy b----” and racist, claiming when they release things about her on public, her scandal would be bigger than Cosby’s.

TheAnonMessage claims their threat to discredit Azalea goes beyond just exposing her sex tape, but also destroying her reputation. However, it also cleared that it won’t release the actual sex tape, but only snapshots of it with her face to confirm it’s really her.

T.I., meanwhile, compared Banks to a drowning person in the middle of the ocean. “They’re screaming, yelling, kicking, with no real strategy. Eventually, they just drown," he said to MTV in an interview.
