It’s been some speculation about which female is actually RUNNING Hip-Hop. Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea seem to be the two top contenders. Iggy Azalea is now the first woman since Nicki to have a No. 1 rap album with her debut Grand Hustle album, The New Classic. But Nicki is letting everyone know she’s not hating on that at all.

“I think that congratulations is in order. Her single is doing really, really well and I think that’s a good thing,” she said of Iggy’s hit “Fancy,” when asked about Iggy in a radio interview.

See what else Nicki had to say and listen to the audio of the full interview after the jump.

“One thing I’m not is a hater. If somebody is doing something and they did it well, and their song is charting well, then congratulations.”

Nicki also made it clear that some females probably wouldn’t be where they were without her.

“I just want female rappers to understand that I’ve kicked in a lot of doors for them and I just would appreciate if they would acknowledge that,” said Nicki.

“If somebody has a song that’s doing well, then I think that’s a great thing. I think that’s a great thing for women and we’re gonna keep it moving.”
