So Iggy Azalea is like a rap version of Adele, right?

...that's disrespetful to Adele, cuz she actually talented

 

[JustCKing]

Iggy reminds me a lot of Diamond from Crime Mob.

 

[Cabbage Patch]

Adele is actually super talented though, and plenty of British singers do blues/r&b so there's a long ass tradition. Iggy can't rap and uses a clownish accent. Totally different.

White people selling black culture to other white people -- not different.

 

[Cabbage Patch]

Her ass is fat to dudes who don't know what that word means.

All I've seen of her is a bunch of back bending and camera trickery from a plain ass broad who tries too hard.

Just say it: white boys, and c00ns who want a white nubian queen.

 

[Cabbage Patch]

Adele, Amy Winehouse & others like them do Black music & whites eat it up & elevate them. I really could care less how talented they are because there are plenty of other Black females artists that've been putting it down for years in the same genre but don't get the accolades they deserve. It might not be intentional from the artists but they're definitely culture vulturing & reaping the benefits of past/current Black artists. It disgusts me to be honest .

They know what they doing.

Adele sucks tho. hometown is like her only good song.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Iggy can rap though

take that shyt somewhere else. No one owns culture in that sense. Black people don't have exclusive rights to r&b even if they created it, just as white people don't have exclusive rights to country music. Music and art have always been mixed. Jazz is a mixture of European and southern influences.

And Adele does not make soul/R&B. Its called Adult contemporary. Winehouse did make soul/R&B influenced records. Azalea is a untalented gimmick who will be washed by the end of this year when mainstream turns on here for being a corny caricature of black music ala Vanilla Ice. There a reason she was releasing track after track for two years and not getting any traction. She studied the flop of Kreashawn/White girl mob and managed to transition to pop status for the time being. So I have to salute the team behind her though. She's only popular because of that budget DJ Mustard beat/knockoff Gwen Stefani hook and good song placement(that nickelodeon girl who being built as the next Miley pre goofiness).
