SURVEY: Was Azealia Banks wrong to say 'faggot'?
She's been criticised for using the word as a negative slur...
Azealia Banks came under media scrutiny earlier this week, after calling Brooklyn producer Baauer a 'faggot' on Twitter.
The rapper remained defiant, later saying; "Everyone's always acting like it's fucking 1905 in this bitch. Faggot means coward, liar, backstabber....... Energy stealer, blood sucker.... As if I would be a fucking homophobe..."
In our forthcoming issue, we ponder the power of language, and ask is it now okay to use 'the other F-word', speaking to some Irish artists, as well as GCN editor, Brian Finnegan. In the meantime, we'd love to know what you think. Click below to let us know if you reckon Azealia was wrong to use the much-contested word.
