You can paint Iggy as black as the bottom of my shoe and the criticism would be the same.
It's less to do w/color & more to do with her appropriating southern black american culture--which isn't found in Australia.

The only thing that would be different is a black Iggy wouldn't be half as successful but keep doing you.

This.

I still believe she can ditch the southern accent and train herself to go harder at verses and she will get insanely better.

well yeah. all i've seen on twitter is about her lack of talent, not the color of her skin

(sorry to bring her in this) but even people who go in on azealia will call her a ****** but they don't come for what she is capable of. so there this isn't about iggy's race

That's not racism. White people have southern accents too.

I'm unaware that reigning from Australia to Miami renders a southern accent. So if I venture to Mexico, can I come back with a Mexican accent?

G-Eazy was on the BET Hip-Hop Awards cypher and many people think he did a great job. Nobody drags him and he's been gaining the respect of fellow rappers and people from the hip-hop community. Then again, that's probably bc he genuinely loves the genre and can actually rap.

Logic is another great example.

I don't see any relative competition. Nicki Minaj does hip hop, Iggy does pop music. solely pop music.

If you say so sis.

It is tbh the only people hating on her are pressed Nicki/Azealia Bank fans. When will your fav have such a successful #1 song like Fancy. So all of you can seethe! And Nicki Minaj doesn't hate her but she's certainly jealous to the point where she had to show her ass implants to get attention and it still couldn't get her a #1.

At least she has talent tho and can have a successful song solo.
Some people have fake ass implants (which they deny) and have no talent so…

Yeah, because she wouldn't be famous.

Stop coddling that girl.

How does that even make ****ing sense?!!!! The hip hop scene is full of black people then how in the world is Iggy her skin color the reason she made it? How many white female rappers have been relevant for the last three decades? Not much huh? So how in the world can you say that she is successful just because she's white?

[ForeverNow90]

No, she's generally hated for making trash, meaningless music.

If she never had a huge hit...no one would give a **** about her. She wouldnt be competition to Nicki Minaj and she dam sure wouldnt be a topic to discuss.

Exactly. And if she didn't have a hit, white publications, media, etc wouldn't be calling her the New Queen of *Hip Hop* or any of these other outlandish statements that are completely disrespectful to actual rappers and MC's? Which is the entire reasoning behind most of their frustrations and "pressedness".

[Rihinvention]

A lot of people consider Iggy's shtick to be vocal blackface though. That being said, you shouldn't fight racism with racism. Two wrongs don't make a right. I'm just pointing out that she's not entirely a victim here. Snoop, Azealia, the rap community as a whole, etc. have justifiable reasons to be angry about her success. It's just that most of them are going about it in the completely wrong way.

100% racism. She may be "talentless," but it's not like her peers are all that talented. So that's no reason to hate her. It all boils down to the fact that she's a successful white rapper, and some can't take that.

White people in the south don't sound like that though.

Nicki makes both, but she is primarily a HIP HOP artist. Iggy only makes POP music.

[Iyanla, Fix Me]

No I don't like her because she doesn't write her raps, she latches on to female singers for her hits, and shes just very mediocre.

"Successful"

Ok huntee

[Vespertine]

Honestly, shut the **** up.

Eric Garner being murdered in cold blood and nothing being ****ing done about it is RACISM.

Pointing out that Iggy is a ****** rapper hiding behind stereotypes of black women is not racism. Get your goddamn priorities straight.
