AceShowbiz - Azealia Banks has shockingly compared herself to Madonna. While criticizing Madonna's song "Vogue", the "Anna Wintour" artist claimed that she is a "much better singer" than the Queen of Pop.
On Monday, October 14, the 33-year-old hip-hop artist made use of her X, formerly known as Twitter, account to share her opinions on the 66-year-old legendary singer's track that was launched back in 1990. In a tweet, she called the song "trash."
Azealia wrote, " 'Vogue' by Madonna is such a trash record just based on Madonna's seriously limited vocal capabilities." She went on to argue, "Martha Wash really should have sang Vogue. She would have actually done it justice."
Feeling confident with her singing skills, Azealia stated, "I could even cover Vogue and give it it's just due in the place of the Gay Musical Lexicon." In a follow-up tweet, she penned, "I'm a much better singer than Madonna."
In a third tweet, Azealia explained the reason why she thinks that Madonna's "Vogue" is "trash." She elaborated, "That song should not be sung by such a mid-vocalist... it's like cheese that doesn't melt."
The "Chasing Time" artist's remarks about the "Material Girl" hitmaker were later screenshotted and uploaded via Instagram. It did not take long for the post to be flooded with online responses from Instagram users. In the comments section, one in particular blasted the young singer, "She really is the most miserable person on the planet. The definition of someone who never made it, so she hates on everyone else instead."
Another wrote, "Yet She Remembers The Songs Meanwhile I Couldn't Name An Azelia Song If My Life Depended On It." A third added, "Say it with me, J e a l o u s y.. whew!! She's a tough critic and got opinion about everyone and their careers... Meanwhile!!!"
"Vogue" is written and produced by Madonna and Shep Pettibone. The track was inspired by voguing, "a dance which was part of the underground gay scene in New York City." Aside from its good performance on various song charts, the track has been covered and sampled by several artists, including Beyonce Knowles, Rihanna and Ariana Grande.
