When the Freshman Cover was release by XXL, the 1st Woman to ever grace the cover, IGGY AZELIA created some History, this Australian MC, who has just signed with T.I. & Grand Hustle was in Atlanta and stopped by our sister station, Hot 107.9 with T.I. and chopped it up with DJ Drama.

Drama asked Iggy about the comments made by Azealia Banks, who tweeted her dissatisfaction with XXL and their choice of placing Iggy in the Freshman class. Check out what T.I. had to say about this female rapper from Harlem, who is apparently living in Britain now, and how she should focus on her career and not anybody else’s, it’s kinda funny cuz T.I. admits he doesn’t know WHO Azealia Banks is….

Azealia Banks then took to Twitter to respond to the video with the following

“Lol I NEVER needed the next n-gga to sit up on a radio show with me and defend me. Furthermore, n*ggas r sitting up here trying to mask/defend what homegirl said. F*ck outta here. Everybody got something slick to say, but no one got an explanation. Come on T.I…. N*ggas is not scared of u and whatever sh-t u got to say on some radio show. @tip you corny for that one. How u a grown man commenting on what’s going on between two girls. Come on son. Stop it. Ruin my career: what f*cking ever… Y’all wish.”

Adding this the next day

“This situation is really funny to me. It’s not like I said some foul out of the water sh-t about Iggy Azalea… I questioned her artistic integrity because of insensitive lyrics. Its not like I made up some bullsh-t and came at her head. In fact the issue wasn’t even really her. The issue was XXL. Why were the only three females nominated for that cover kreayshawn, v-nasty and iggy? Where was Rapsody, or Nitty Scott, or Angel Haze? But y’all n-ggas don’t hear me tho. LOL. I think what’s even more interesting about this, is how unable Iggy is to explain herself. T.i can’t even explain for her. Those r my last comments about it. The Internet is making me look like a villain.”
