Are you an unabashed Iggy Azalea hater?
You might want to avoid T.I.
"That pisses me off," Tip told XXL. "Simply because they don't have any real substantial grounds. 'I don't like them.' Why? 'Just 'cause.' What you mean just 'cause? Since when do you get the right to judge people? Who died and made you the emperor of Egypt? That kind of shit and then the things that they accuse her of, like the racist stuff. That's not even her. That's not even in her. Me knowing her, knowing where she comes from-for real, the whole racist thing, that's American-we forget, she's not American. So the whole Black, white, color divided thing, it isn't a part of her DNA like it is here in America.
"It's just ignorant to me. In this day and age, to be a race of people who are demanding equality and speaking out on injustices and wanting to be treating fairly, to stand up and do the exact same thing in opposite to someone unwarranted for no reason, it's hypocritical. I'ma ride with her. So, ya'll go ahead. Anybody got a problem with it just know, it gon' be one 'cause I'm coming."
Tip also disagrees with the longstanding rumor that he ghostwrites for Azalea, who made the transition from Australian pop wannabe to hip-hop star in the early 2010s.
"Iggy got her own ideas and thoughts that she presents to the world her own way," Tip said. "I couldn't write a lot of the sh-- she say, you know? I couldn't put her thoughts into words as articulate as she does. She just has a different way of presenting herself and her art."
Three days ago, T.I. released the artwork for his new album, Paperwork: The Motion Picture.
The LP will be T.I.'s ninth studio effort and the immediate follow-up to 2012's Trouble Man: Heavy is the Head.
