Azealia Banks has sparked concern among fans, after the rapper shared a series of worrying messages on her Instagram over the weekend.
The 29-year-old took to her social media to write cryptic messages which caused concern for her well-being, where she stated she was finding life “hard”.
“Yea. I think I’m done here,” she wrote on Saturday, “This pandemic, extreme lack of social interaction, no intimacy, combined with constant public ridicule is making life harder than its worth.”
“I’m not begging for attention or asking for sympathy/empathy,” she continued, “I’m just ready to go.”
“Peacefully of course. I will document my last times and release a film for you all to finally understand me, from my perspective… My soul is tired. I’m ready to go.”
After the posts, Azealia updated her followers that a friend had done a welfare check on her: “I’m fine. I promise you I’m fine. I’m not scared,” she said.
“My decision is made. I’m just gonna really try to push through these next couple of months.”
The rapper said that she no longer wanted to be someone that “people continue to make fun of”.
On Sunday, the rapper updated her fans again – sharing that she needed “time and some space” to “try to get whatever is inside out and shake that s*** off.”
Fans expressed their concern for the star on Twitter, with one user writing: “Idc if you don’t like Azealia Banks or disagree with anything she’s said or done before. She’s a human being who is at her lowest point rn and needs mental help.”

I really hope that Azealia Banks is covered/protected in this moment. Black women with mental illness genuinely do not get the same grace/empathy as others do. She deserves a healthy life where she doesn’t feel this pain.

I pray for Azealia Banks. She’s never been given the same grace and that can become exhausting for anyone.
