Damn you 140-character driven social media. As he should, T.I. has come to Iggy Azalea’s defense, yet again. After Azealia Banks spoke with Hot 97’s morning crew, she caused a great debate involving racism and hip hop. Of course, Iggy happened to have been the center of that debate, due to the two having a well-known and on-going beef. Following the interview, some artists were not feeling Banks and other artists, like Q-Tip, had her back. “@IGGYAZELEA hiphop now was FOR EVERYBODY!! All of those who cld relate to the root, the spirit, the history, the energy.. It reached YOU,” Q_Tip tweeted. “@IGGYAZALEA the music was undeniable! It moved from NY N became national and even GLOBAL,” he continued on in a two-hour long session. You know you can’t come for Iggy without the king homie sitting in a corner. Let’s just say, if you thought Q-Tip went in for quite some time, hit the jump to see what T.I. had to say in Iggy’s defense.

Sneak dissing or nah? Iggy Azalea posts suspect drawing with suggestively racist undertone? Well…yeah, its sorta looking that way! The Aussie raptress from down under has been catching a lot of hell from fellow artists in the rap game these past couple of months…, but ESP Azealia Banks who’s been gunning for the femcee…..proving that Iggy may need to develop some tougher skin if she plans to make it as a minority in this rap game. Now I’m not sure if Iggy’s Australian upbringing is to blame, but obviously aside from the indigenous people of Australia, I’m not too sure how much exposure to black culture Iggy has had aside from what she has seen on T.V. However, when Iggy took to her Instagram late this week, fans and followers alike couldn’t help but side-eye Iggy after posting a suggestive drawing with a negatively racial undertone. See for yourself inside!
