Azealia Banks has embarked in yet another Twitter feud, this time by wishing death upon The Stone Roses.

Both acts are currently playing the Future Music Festival in Australia and, judging by Banks' Tweets, her anger stems from claims she has made that the Manchester band tried to sabotage her set by checking their equipment while she was performing.

"Big apologies on behalf of the stone roses to my fans at the festival today," she wrote. "My ex tour manager made a pact with the stone roses saying they'd sabotage my set because I fired him and they decided to check their equipment behind me during my set."

She then fired off a series of angry messages aimed at the band, which you can read below:

Fuck those old saggy white niggas stone roses. I wish them nothing but excrement and death.

In recent months, Banks has also been embroiled in Twitter spats with fellow rapper Angel Haze and celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton. The rapper also used the social media site to confirm earlier this month that she will perform at this year's Glastonbury festival.

On March 1, Banks released a dance cover of The Strokes' track 'Barely Legal' - scroll down to the bottom of the page and click to listen.
