I know she's untalented, fake and obnoxious but I'm starting to feel sorry for this girl. I can't remember a rapper catching this much shyt, like ever. Must be hard to know the demographic you're trying to emulate hate you're guts

Honestly the only reason she get as much flack as she does is because she's a white female. Eminem spent 3 years wearing nothing but sweatpants, Jordans & du-rags and did get this much hate (and i love Em's music).
If Iggy was a white man from Australia rapping like he was from west side Atlanta people would marvel at him. And
you know why because black men don't fell threatened by a white man that can spit.
We loved Yelawolf, Mac Miller & Paul Wall. But for some reason this white causes insecurity in black women
and that's why they attack her despite there being far more white men acting black than white women doing so.
payola is the only reason she got here... when people saw through that, it was a wrapStick a fork in Iggy Azalea. She’s done.
Or is she?
It was just a year ago that Azalea’s “Fancy” was being heralded as the song of the summer, but the past few months have not been kind to Australia’s most famous rapper. She was forced to postpone, then altogether cancel her Great Escape tour when she couldn’t procure an opening act. After being nominated for four Grammys, she failed to win any, but inspired many, many inches of writing from those who hoped that she wouldn’t.

Her career has had some bright spots — she was, after all, the only artist besides the Beatles to have her first two singles occupy the top two spots on the Billboard 100 chart simultaneously. She’s released collaborations with Jennifer Lopez and Britney Spears, and newer acts such as Ariana Grande, Rita Ora and Charli XCX. She claims T.I. as a mentor.
And yet, an image problem that may have started as a dark spot on an otherwise promising career has now metastasized into a nasty network of tumors that could derail it entirely — some would say it already has. A highly palpable wave of schadenfreude made its way through the Internet when Azalea’s tour was canceled. It’s not just that people don’t like Azalea, or even that they want her to fail — they want her to disappear.
It would seem, on some level, that they’ve finally gotten their wish. What’s next for Azalea’s career after such forceful widespread and public rejection? Does she go away, get married, and live happily and silently ever after with fiance Nick Young? Does she mount a comeback? History would suggest she mounts a comeback attempt.
In the meantime, let’s assess how she arrived at this place.
“Piggy Azalea”
Azalea found seemingly sudden ubiquity when her first single, “Fancy,” featuring Charli XCX, was ushered in to song of the summer status thanks to a big push from Clear Channel’s On The Verge Program. It was inescapable.
