Nicki Minaj Disses Iggy Azalea On Twitter: ‘Racism Is Alive & Well’

Nicki worked hard to get to where she is today, and she revealed on Twitter on July 23 that she doesn’t take kindly to others “cutting corners” to get to the top. She also seems to be implying that race can play a role in certain undeserving people’s overnight success stories. Could she be referring to her rap rival Iggy, who is admittedly a bit of an overnight sensation and who is also, obviously, white? Here are Nicki’s tweets:

Nicki shared these thoughts on the same week that Iggy began filming her new music video for “Black Widow” with singer Rita Ora — do YOU think it’s a coincidence?


Nicki Minaj Vs. Iggy Azalea: The Truth Behind Her BET Awards Diss

In case you missed Nicki’s original Iggy diss, here’s what went down. When Nicki took the stage to accept her BET Award for Best Female Hip Hop Artist on June 29, she decided to say a few proud, powerful words.

“I thank God that I’ve been placed in a position to do something and represent women in a culture that is so male-driven,” she declared. “What I want the world to know about Nicki Minaj is, that when you hear Nicki Minaj spit, Nicki Minaj wrote it.”

Ouch! It definitely seemed like she was directing the diss at Iggy, whose songs are rumored to have been ghostwritten by rapper T.I., among others.

Nicki, however, has denied that her speech was about Iggy, saying in a series of tweets on July 2:

“The media puts words in my mouth all the time and this is no different. I will always take a stance on women writing b/c I believe in us!”

“I believe we’re smart enough to write down our own thoughts and perspective, just like the men do. I’ve been saying this for 5 YEARS”

“I’ve congratulated Iggy on the success of Fancy, publicly. She should be very proud of that. All the women nominated should b proud.”

And:

“That will never change my desire to motivate women to write. Our voices have to be heard. I hope I inspire up & coming females to do that.”
