A black NYPD cop who rapped about a “war” on white cops before joining the force claims her fellow officers were so angry about her lyric they left her without backup in the field, according to a lawsuit.

Atisha Samuel who became a cop in 2017, came under fire last year when investigators learned of a racially-charged rap video she posted to Instagram declaring “a war against the white man on the beat.”

Samuel, who wears a black ski mask in the 2016 video, is now suing the city after her irate coworkers allegedly misinterpreted the tune — and tried to make her miserable on the job, according to her Manhattan Federal Court papers.
