No it doesn't go both ways. Quality is not as subjective as you are trying to make it out to be. War and Peace is clearly of higher quality than a children's book.

All you're saying is that Iggy Azelea as a performer cannot act the way she acts because its black culture and only black people can use it and any white person who you even think is using it is racist and trying to get ahead. No,no and no. Since when was black culture defined by acting ghetto? Its sad that that this is the reality we live in now, where people actually are trying to claim this "ghetto" behavior as their own even though it is that same behavior that further perpetuates the stereotypes against black youth in America.

It IS Black culture.
White people, from Iggy and Miley to corporate America, look at Black culture, see it in the simplest of ways, take it, manipulate it, exploit it, and regurgitate it, producing what ends up as the perpetuation of "ghetto" and "ratchet".
That in and of itself is one of the major reasons why appropriation is such an issue. The people who are appropriating don't actually understand the culture they're taking from, so all they present is their simple, stereotype-enriched version: twerking, ass, Southern accents, weave, and gettin dat paper. That **** leads the rest of the majority like yourself to see the culture that was appropriated as nothing but those simple stereotypes produced by the appropriators themselves, thus erasing the REAL culture over time.

Exactly. Iggy really doesn't understand, and Azealia tweet about Iggy having black children is so spot on that I snapped. Azealia speaks her mind and says some crazy sh*t, but not a single lie came out of her mouth in that interview.

why does azealia always call her like "white girl", if you want racism to end, you should put some effort into it too, it's not only one sided thing.

Azealia Banks acting like she has it tough is the most ridiculous thing, if she's upset that Iggy is so successful she has no right to be because she has been afforded countless opportunities to be a star but has constantly failed to because she's a brat who thinks she's entitled to everything. I wanna slap her and ask her to check her privilege because she's delusional is she thinks she among the 'average' black American.

I love his old records but you can't possibly not think his sound changed
I used to like him when he made real hip hop music, but now it's Iggy who's doing that so

Iggy is dumb as hell, and my opinion of her is even less after tonight, because as usual this bitch is avoiding the larger issue at hand, and acting like AB is obsessed with her.
Azealia's worst song (ATM Jam) is worse than Iggy's best song (don't know any besides Fancy and Pu$$y) and that's a fact.

Stop claiming ghetto=black culture.
Ghetto = ghetto = could be any race.
I've actually had a conversation with Iggy herself and she's pretty damn ghetto. 
|
Well, my bad.
But I'm pretty sure she is that way because she's picked that up from being around black people. I mean, she was in Hustle Gang. I just don't believe it at all. It's all so fake and forced.

Who brought the slaves over? white folks
Who raped the black women? white folks
Who enforced Jim Crow laws? white folks
Who started the KKK? white folks
Who is killing the black youth? white folks
Who denies black children proper education? white folks
Racism is one sided baby-cakes.

The absolute ignorance in here thinking Azealia is racist because she says white girl.
I've skipped rocks that were more intelligent than some of the members on here
