'212' singer Azealia Banks recently took to Twitter to rant about Dolce and Gabbana's newest collection, claiming it was racist and that she would not be wearing it.

The American singer has previously shocked music fans in her racy song lyrics for last year's smash '212' and isn't afraid to air her opinions.

She tweeted: "Definitely boycotting Dolce & Gabanna."

She continued: "Whoever designed that racist ass Dolce and Gabanna collection needs a swift kick in the mouth and a big d**k up the ass.

"I really hate when people do corny, racist things then try to justify it as "art".

"It's all just really unnecessary. the clothes in the collection were fine without all the "black mammie" imagery."

She made her feelings clear about the fashion designers by tweeting them directly: "you guys should be so ashamed of yourselves."

The collection, which showed during Milan fashion week in September, created controversy when it featured earrings with imagery that recalled ministrel shows. 

Azealia is not completely over Italian fashion however, later tweeting: "Purchased my first Gucci Item today. so weird, i have stuff from all the other houses but finally made a gucci purchase. the shoes r boss!"
