Remy Ma is savage. Anyone who wants to fight her had better be ready. The rapper has exposed old text messages her colleague and rival Azaelia Banks sent to a friend. In the messages, Azealia talked about getting labioplasty to make her vagina look presentable because, according to her, hers looks tough and rough. In the message, Azealia also dissed Nicki Minaj and said everyone stopped taking her serious when she slept with Meek Mill. She said Nicki will have to get the scent of that dirty Philly dick (Meek Mill) off her before anyone will take her seriously. Remy Ma followed the screenshots with a very savage caption and she made sure to tag Azealia in the post. She said: “When I came home it was nothing.
