Kendrick Lamar covers this week's Billboard magazine and discussed Hip Hop's favorite whipping girl Iggy Azalea in its pages. The Good Kid, M.A.A.D City rapper joins Lupe Fiasco, YG and Iggy's mentor T.I. in coming out in defense of the Australian import.

"She's doing her thing," Lamar said. "Let her. People have to go through trials and tribulations to get where they at. Do your thing, continue to rock it, because obviously God wants you here."

"[Macklemore's] a genuine dude," Lamar told the mag. "I wish him much success."
