Azealia Banks poses naked for Playboy: "I hate fat white Americans"

Azealia Banks has posed fully naked and revealed that she hates everything about the US in a controversial new interview.

The 23-year-old rapper stripped for the latest issue of Playboy magazine and shared an image - taken by fashion photographer Ellen Von Unwerth - from the provocative shoot on Twitter.

It features the star pouring milk over her body, along with the caption: "Ha!"

When asked by interviewer Rob Tannenbaum if she wants to leave the US, Banks said: "Yes! I hate everything about this country.

"Like, I hate fat white Americans. All the people who are crunched into the middle of America, the real fat and meat of America, are these racist conservative white people who live on their farms.

"Those little teenage girls who work at Kmart and have a racist grandma - that's really America."
The musician insisted that schools should introduce a new curriculum to ensure "the survival of a young black soul".

"Young black kids should have their own special curriculum that doesn't start from the boat ride over from Africa," she insisted.

"All you know as a black kid is we came over here on a boat, we didn't have anything, and we still don't have anything. But what was happening in Africa?

"What culture were we pulled away from? That information is vital to the survival of a young black soul."
The singer also revealed that her longest relationship was when she was just 17 and her then-boyfriend was 43.

She went on: "Four years. It started when I was 17. He was 43. There's something very wrong with a man that age who wants to date a 17-year-old girl. I didn't know how to shave my bush and s**t like that."

She claimed that the relationship turned violent, adding: "My career started to happen, he became jealous.

"He choked me and beat me up, and of course you should not be ******ing with a man who puts his hands on you, but I was stupid and young."
She went on to criticise Pharrell Williams and Kendrick Lamar for "playing that non-threatening black man s**t" to win over white fans, but praised Jay Z for not doing the same.

"In American society, the game is to be a non-threatening black person," she professed. "That's why you have Pharrell or Kendrick Lamar saying, 'How can we expect people to respect us if we don't respect ourselves?'

"He's playing that non-threatening black man s**t, and that gets all the white soccer mums going, 'We love him'. Even Kanye West plays a little bit of that game - 'Please accept me, white world'. Jay Z hasn't played any of those games, and that's what I like."

The April 2015 copy of Playboy is available on newsstands on Friday, March 20.
