Jill Scott and Eve are the two latest to fire shots at Iggy Azalea. During a discussion on Sway in the Morning, R&B singer Scott said she couldn't get behind Iggy because her style was an inauthentic "big bite" of Eve and Da Brat, and Eve added that Iggy was using a "Blaccent."
"She's from a different place and I've said this before, it would be dope to hear her with her swag," Eve said. "Who are you, what are you, what is that?"
Iggy took to Twitter, her defense mechanism of choice, to push back against this latest round of criticism.
There's a difference between being yourself and being your stereotype. When people I've never met say I should act more like "myself" — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) January 28, 2015
I feel like they're really saying "act more like how I sterotype you to be, so I can feel comfortable" — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) January 28, 2015
I'm myself as strange as I may be, daily. I think it's really important we all feel free to explore or feel passionate about whatever u wish — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) January 28, 2015
And I hope all my young fans take what I'm saying and remember it if you ever find yourself in similar shoes. — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) January 28, 2015
Be as complex and multidimensional and interesting as you possibly can. — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) January 28, 2015
Does Iggy have a point?
