The 43-year-old Badu, who has five studio albums and four Grammy wins to her name, responded shortly after.
Well shit I did try. Maybe you’re right.. I’m just to old to get it. You cool tho? “@AZEALIABANKS: @fatbellybella ….. Jealousy.”
— ErykahBadoula (@fatbellybella) February 14, 2015

Another Twitter user noticed that Badu turned on her geolocation to show that she was tweeting from Queens, New York. Banks, a Harlem native, decided to make things personal.
You caught that .. “@bhrisbrown: Queen turned on her location. HELP pic.twitter.com/3LNTIPd7PT”

Hours later, Badu responded with a meme, before telling Banks she was joking and to “be careful.”

Banks continued the fight on Sunday…
