Damn! Those are DEFINITELY some fighting words!
Earlier today, the nominations for the 2015 BET Awards were revealed, and to pretty much nobody’s surprise Nicki Minaj led the way with a total of SIX nominations!

However, some people were NOT thrilled about Nicki’s noms, and by “some people,” we mean Azealia Banks!
Shocking, right??
Azealia took to Twitter to share her thoughts, saying:
I really hate getting nominated for @bet awards. They’re so bogus.

The female rap award at the bet awards goes to nicki every year, it’s not even a real award anymore lol it’s a bit of a running joke.

They should just nominate nicki five times with five different wigs on and pick the best picture lol
