Azealia Banks would like black media outlets to please stop covering her.

On Sunday, Banks posted a picture to Twitter of herself in Ebony magazine in an article discussing the much-publicized dispute between Banks and Australian rapper Iggy Azalea over cultural appropriation.

In the tweet, which has since been taken down, Banks said, “The only time I made it 2 ebony magazine was in a discussion of another white woman. Black media is counter productive.”

But the “212” rapper wasn’t done. In a series of tweets about black media, she went on, “I beg black media publications to stop covering Azealia Banks. You have done the MOST to damage my brand. I don’t fall in line with your self righteous black Christian social beliefs and I never will. So please stop covering me. Ni**asneverlovedmeishouldreallystoplovingthem. I need to just leave the kneegrows in the fields and enjoy my time in the big house!! Seems like that’s what people want me to do anyway.”
