Was the Periscope thing really bad? I haven't seen it and I'm lowkey scared to.

It was so weird. She was babbling on about a conspiracy with 1D kicking Zayn out of the band and she was calling Skai a "little black bitch" and calling Zayn a "sand ******" and all kinds of stuff. She was yelling at some parts and it sounded like she was about to break down and cry any moment lol. Then you have Matt and Jovon in the background acting silly like everything is perfectly normal.It was a mess.
Her weave was cute though.

I don't see her staying signed to Charli's label.
Charli's mum is Asian I think so she'll probably come to her senses and drop Azealia.
Hope AB gets help.

She'd be forced to re-evaluate.

I agree, she needs to hit rock bottom. It's obvious by now she needs professional help for her various mental illnesses. The whole situation is just so sad. A young girl started off with a really promising future, literally the whole world was rooting for her to be a star and here she is sitting on Periscope dragging 14 year old girls, spouting racist sh*t and doing lines of coke for the world to see.
The fact her family encourage her is disgusting. Sounds dramatic but at this point I think she needs rehab and to undergo treatment for her Bipolar because this can't continue. It's like watching Amanda Bynes all over again. Regardless of what I think of her now, I really hope she gets the help she needs. I don't think anyone will be booking her for a long time.

The Twitter stans need to stop with the "Yas Queen!" type **** on all her rants too. She doesn't need to be seeing that **** when she's having a meltdown. Can't believe they think that's okay.

I'm kinda over it already. She done something like this a few years ago when she deleted all her tweets and unfollowed everyone.

I don't know, Charli XCX and Azealia Banks are very good friends, I think they did a collab for Charli's upcoming album, but I am not sure if Charli will keep her because of the racist and homophobic comments alone on her record label

She's never been signed to Charli's label, that was something made up by an ATRL'er. They share the same manager.

Ok, like where to start?..I am still sorting out and...bottom line is, I don't care how and by who but she needs help. She can not deal with these things all by herself anymore.
And this not some "yeah, I pity her and I am so sorry and ugh, she so vile- type of post", this is really a bunch of things that need to be sorted out.
The problem is, Azealia has no chance to get to her senses when she is surrounded by people who are very close to her, like her family.
In situations when you are in sort of mental pain, you usually need your family. In her case, it's toxic.
The problem is also that she doesn't let any sort of criticism to her, she blocks everything out.
I saw this coming for a while now. All this over-the-top- craziness she has displayed during the last couple of months was a build up and it got fueld by the reactions it caused.
She is not even in a place where her drags are witty and funny like they used to be, they are straight up vile because she can only respond with cruelty.
I stay out of the discussions going on in her threads now cause they all miss the point completly.
For now, all I can say is that I support her. Not her actions, but I believe in her and that she has a lot to offer as an artist and I hope for her that she finds ways to deal with her illness. To get better, because I am sure that when all of these drags are over, she ain't happy. Nobody can convince me that she is happy when she goes to bed.

Also, does anyone know what happened to Azealia's family? I know her father passed away, but what happened to her mother? Whenever I see Azealia on Periscope, she's always with those black/latino guys (these people are TRASH, why don't they do anything about Azealia?) and I never see her family. I'm sure her family would've helped her if she was close with them, right?

Her mom is around. Her sister Latwan is on Twitter and she seems really sweet and level-headed. Seems like she just wants to stay out of all of this.

Huh? I actually don't think that her family would be (or actually is) helpful at all.
I think her family has given her mental neglect on many levels.

I hope one of her family members help send her to rehab or something. Azealia's behavior last night was completely unacceptable.

Lol, the thing about Azealia is that I never take her tweets seriously. Whenever she tweet racist/homophobic slurs, I think she's doing it to troll or because she's drunk/high. It wasn't until the Periscope where I saw that she really meant those nasty slurs, her eyes were twitching and she sounded like she was about to burst into tears  I really hope she gets the help she needs.

But seriously though, I can't stan for her anymore. I'll never say I don't give a **** about her anymore because I still wanna see her be great and get the help she needs but I can't stan anymore.

I ain't giving up on her. Maybe because everybody else does and maybe too many on here want that to happen, but I refuse.
But things need to change. A permanent change
