The ongoing fued between Azealia Banks and Angel Haze ? which then became a row with Perez Hilton ? over the weekend has sparked a sales surge for Banks.
According to Billboard, Banks' '1991' EP saw a sales increase of 18 per cent over the last week, which equates to around 1000 copies sold in the US. Sales of her single '212' rose by 3 per cent to 3,000 downloads.
Earlier this week, The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation group critisised Banks for calling Hilton a "messy faggot" during the escalating online spat, which began when he took the side of Angel Haze during last week's feud between the two up-and-coming rappers, which saw them both savage each other via diss tracks.
The 'BBD' rapper went on to call Hilton "dickbreath" and told him to "gobble a dick". Banks later defended what she said by tweeting: "A faggot is not a homosexual male. A faggot is any male who acts like a female. There's a BIG difference."
However, GLAAD has hit out at Banks' use of the word "faggot" and said it is a term "almost universally used by bullies, often used as part of a larger verbal or physical assault".
