She literally puts on a thick accent when she raps an accent clearly based off black artists, she was not raised to rap with this accent since she doesn't talk with this accent, It's obvious appropriation. Since she's ripping off the same thing original black artists are doing and gaining more success there's obviously a reason behind it (race) so her success is clearly unfair and undeserved
This beef does extent to white people getting the claim for rock (Elvis)
What pop stars are appropriating black culture on Iggy's level atm?

A lot of foreign rappers rap in an American accent; Nicki frequently raps in a British accent - are these cultural appropriations as well? If Iggy grew up listening to a lot of black rappers, of course their influence is going to leak into her delivery. Duh.

Well you brought it up.

But she didn't actually acknowledge her privilege. It's a white rapper rite of passage, I'm afraid.

Iggy get's her white privilege from the members of the public that give it to her, not to mention there has only ever been one other successful white rapper besides her so don't act like they are saturating the market

Gaga had lots of stans to defend her though, I feel like Iggy has like 3 stans on this site at most.

Anyway I don't stan for her but it's been too much, her situation is different. I guess it'll calm down until she comes back with the next album :/

Why would people stan her, even more at this poing like she's on a downfall lately, people jumped ship.

No it's not really "of course" at all, literally no one else obviously does it to the extent that Iggy does.

Azealia gets dragged as much Iggy does, if not more by legitimate publications.

So? Doesn't change the fact that she failed to acknowledge it. Instead she mocked the issue at hand. Lashings deserved.

Almost all of our faves get dragged on this forum.

So i don't understand why you singled out Iggy.
Why should she be the only one immune to drags?

American accent/culture?
So Nicki only raps in a British accent?
There's a difference between influence and clear appropriations

What you want? A cookie? That's the point people are making, EVERY celebrity is dragged on ATRL so why defend Iggy? The girls can say Bey bleaches her skin or make racist jokes all day every day, but God forbid anybody drag the white, blonde rapper!1!!!!1!!!!!!

Exactly, when did I claim different? Every dog has their day in the sun, and everyone on this site has their lows, so just as you think it's so crazy to defend Iggy it's funny to me that people praise Nicki to the high heavens lately (most often at Iggy's expense) because I've seen the same members rip her to shreds some years before. Trust me, I know how this site and the hive mind works (no, not talking about bey stans)

Not "immune", I have my issues with her, I just think people are doing the most. It seems a bit like a transparent bandwagon.

Nicki raps every song in a stereotypical British accent? News to me. Tell me, who else is a part of this popular trend?

[KareBear]

Iggy stans keep trying to argue that she's the Queen of Rap so we're just trying to put them in their place
In all seriousness she gets a lot of hate, some of it deserved, most of it over the top. Especially considering Azealia is like 20x worse than she is, and most of out faves have done problematic things. I just hate her phony exagerrated rap voice and the fact that she has no actual talent, as seen by those vines and that interview. Cringe

That's really not comparable.

[slw84]

The dedication to Iggy for ATRL is just insurmountable.
My goodness...the mind consumption.
Ya'll need to stop arguing with each other about it too.
