Reawakened Iggy Azalea Boo-Hoos About Her Once Wrecked Confidence — But Are Folks FINALLY Done Slandering Her?

  Photo by Noel Vasquez/Getty Images) Iggy Azalea’s Reemergence Causes Debate It’s been several years since Iffy Iggy Azalea was cancelled in the court of public opinion. With problematic lyrics, identifying herself as a “runaway” slave master and labels like “appropriating” preceding her, she didn’t really blossom into the space she was aiming for in rap music. Now some folks are kinda feeling her  Kream record (it’s charting and streaming higher than whatshername’s single), but is that enough to recant all slander towards Iggy? Here, Iggy explains how much the previous years have taken a toll on her confidence. She says that her self-confidence was knocked and it took years to rebuild. But now she’s back to believing in herself. y’all dragged iggy to filth and totally wrecked her confidence which took her years to rebuild only because she’s a white female rapper but I don’t see the same shit happening to white male rappers when they are 10 times more problematic pic.twitter.com/6Qq69CTU8z — lukas (@lukasperry) July 6, 2018 Aussie tears aside, folks online are split right down the middle on how to handle Iggy moving forward. Do you have a short-term memory? Are you ready to recant all ill feelings toward Iggy, like some of the following tweeters? Hit the flip.
