Azealia Banks is always full of surprises and wild comments, which is why her latest move doesn’t come as much of a shock.
The controversial rapper announced that she will be voting for Kamala Harris in the presidential election, despite her initial reservations about the Democratic candidate. She made this revelation while launching a new attack on Tesla CEO and X/Twitter owner Elon Musk.
Last year, Banks had stated that she would be voting for Harris’s Republican rival, Donald Trump. However, she took to X on the eve of Election Day to warn her followers: “I really think keeping Elon Musk away from any type of political power in the USA is tantamount to any issue on the table here.” She went on to criticize Musk, the Trump-supporting tech billionaire, “You have to be a complete idiot to think that dirtbag cares about anyone or anything other than himself. He’s already been given way too much taxpayer money – Allowing him to ascend to any position of political authority is very f***ing dangerous. One does not become the richest man in the world because of honesty and good character lol, you must be an expert liar, thief, and cheater to become that.” From there, Banks made her endorsement clear: “I will be Voting For Kamala Harris tomorrow because Elon Musk… belongs nowhere near American Politics. The End,” she concluded.
So I'm thinking about this……. for as stupid and incoherent Kamala Harris is and as trash as Walz is, and despite the fact that Kamala Harris is the only Democratic Nominee to not have actively campainged in a Primary (the most undemocratic shit ever, and really says alot…

Interestingly, Banks previously told The Standard that she would be voting for Trump in the 2024 election simply because “he’s f***ing funny…”

Banks isn’t the only one who quickly switched her stance before voting. Model Alexis Sky also recently revealed she was initially voting for Donald Trump until social media helped her see things differently.
“The interview I did regarding voting was done prior to Trump’s statement on the Department of Education. Initially, I wanted to vote for Trump for my own personal reasons. After familiarizing myself with both candidates, I will no longer be voting for him.” She added, “Nov. 4th,” seemingly encouraging her fans to go out and vote, although she meant November 5th. Whew!
