Iggy will never be taken seriously by the urban+rap community and she has herself to blame. As a rapper, she completely fails. I don't think she can ever be a full-fledged pop girl either. This is her peak and I think everyone around her knows it.

According to... you?
First female and first non-American to cover XXL Freshman, featured on their best female rappers of all time list. XXL is one of the biggest hip-hop publications. Always requested interviews by major hip-hop related media.
Iggy is also headlining the pre-show of two of the biggest hip-hop events in the US, HOT 97's SummerJam and Power 106's PowerHouse (and this happened pre-Fancy).
Praised/given props by the likes of T.I., Nas, Missy Elliott, Lil Kim, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Kanye wanted to sign her etc etc etc.
Out of the "new girls" Iggy is BY FAR the one that's been embraced the most by that community. And as you're all saying, she hasn't even been making music that caters to them YET.
