The RZA and Ridley Scott too! Such an odd group.

Didn't they work together on American Gangster?
I think that's where the connection lies.

Jesus. Why can't this chick just stay in a bunker and focus on making music? Shit is tragic.

Some hard proof like a video from either side would be helpful cuz Crowe isn't exactly a teddy bear, more of a sleepy grizzly, but Banks is the girl who cried wolf.
Cannot count how many times she has started shit with people at the drop of a hat because she thinks she's keeping it real. It really sucks because I've loved a lot of her music, she's just nuts, it's absurd though that like 30-40% of the time I see her pop up it's because of shit like this and not something related to her art.
What makes it even more grating is she's been on a roll about how she's trying to change and actually focus on her music instead of stirring shit up and then this happens lol.

I'm going in knowing only the facts of the couple of accounts posted, but...
Basically she lies a lot. She contacts RZA, asking for financial help and also to help get her a deal. He helps her out. She brags about it before the deal's in place. He pays for a plane ticket and a hotel for her to stay in LA. They go to a Russell Crowe party, and she attacks the room and grabs a bottle after threatening to cut people. Crowe ejects her, and she calls racism. RZA comes out and sets things right. She then spits on his hospitality after all he's done for her.
Am I getting all this?
Haha, what a nightmare.
My main surprise out of all of this is that Banks managed to sign with RZA at all with all the bridges she's burned. Guess this is just another one on the list. Eventually you have to wonder who will put up with her even if they see some talent. Girl has genuine issues. RZA put his neck out there for you and this is how you repay him? Shame.

Wow at that response and how she shit on RZA's label in the comments section. If anyone works with her after this they deserve all the shit they will get.
Long as she's attractive she'll keep getting chances.
Thats why RZA invited her there anyway. Paid for her ticket out to LA and everything. Thought he was going to be able to run some "Im so famous Im partying with Russel Crowe " game on her before running through her during the night. She freaked out, and now he embarrassed for being associated with trying to put his dick in crazy.
Sad all around, but even then if you invited her there you got to at least leave with her when she is thrown out. He broke a guy code by leaving her hanging.

"Gaslighting" is a real thing that slowly is becoming a word people use to delegitimize others when they call you out on erratic, assholish behavior.
..he took her home. I thought.

yeah, this letter is one thing, then you get Banks' comments on what she really thinks of RZA, how she claims his boy's label is still working with her & shit...like, even better than the opportunities he wasted on her was his advice: put down your phone. you could've had a career, possibly a few times now, but you're just that dumb
she put out a decent album a while back, no idea what career she has to speak of these days though

Her version of the story, is like from a tv-show where the asshole retells the story as him being a fluffy saint.
Even if Crowe did all of that, aint no way her retelling fits her.

she should have kept that allure and just kept putting out dope music. thats when she was "cool"
This is true, but there's also a finite amount of people to get chances from in the music industry and she's burning bridges at an alarmingly fast rate. This is why her "comebacks," or attempts at one, have become increasingly more spread out and harder to come by.
Rest
All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
This is a very good point.
Oh my sister told me he left her.
Fair play for leaving with her though. The rest still stands though. RZA was definitely trying to sleep with her.

You don't think he would've been able to sleep with her when directing her in his movie?

AB be at the computer like:
Well, Azalea is fucking crazy, Crowe is fucking crazy, so it probably went down exactly like both of them claim. They're fucking nuts.
I mean, it's not cool what happened, but I would not be even remotely surprised if either of their versions of the story are true. Hollywood parties can be weird and crazy. I speak from limited experience, but experience nonetheless.

Reality TV is calling her name
It's surprising tmz isn't following her everywhere. She's up their alley.

Well it's like the difference between reporting a drone strike in USA, and reporting a drone strike in Syria.
He Could have, but that is neither here nor there of him flying her out to LA for that party that night. Listening to those events unfold the way it did as told by Sway on sirius xm we all know what he wanted by doing that.
I'm not clowning him either because she is a very pretty lady, but he knew what was trying to go down with this. He's only acting brand new now because she embarrassed him in front of his big friends.
She's the Thanos of the hip hop community. Just keep dropping that Infinity Cube Azealia.
For hiring her for a movie and considering to help her get a new record deal? Yes, he exhibited poor judgment.
For flying her out to LA(paying for her ticket too) to hang around his big influential friends in order to bed her.
He KNEW she was crazy, and he looks worse by association even if she's making everything up, which I am not sure she is looking at the video.
