Azealia Banks pulled out of a London festival and alleged that “the promoters” pressured her to support Palestine.
The 34-year-old singer slammed festival promoters in a lengthy post shared June 24 on X.
“So guys, I am cancelling Boomtown and Maiden Voyage, the promoters have been stressing me out for weeks trying to force me to say free Palestine and threatening to cut me from the bill because I won’t say free Palestine and I’m not dealing with the threats and I’m not putting on a fucking hijab,” she wrote.
Banks was slated to perform at Burgess Park, London’s Maiden Voyage festival and at Boomtown, Hampshire, in August, according to The Standard.
