Lupe Fiasco Engages In Twitter Rant After Defending Iggy Azalea

    Days after stating that Australian musician Iggy Azalea “has a place in HipHop,” rapper Lupe Fiasco engaged in a Twitter rant yesterday (December 22) after being criticized over his comment. Lupe’s rant also came hours after Azalea thanked both him and will.i.am for defending her.

    At the start of his tweets, the Chicago, Illinois wordsmith stated that “Its unbelievable how unbelievable this is. I thought I was helping. I thought I was one of the good guys.”
    He then began to criticize those who turned a blind eye when he was taking part in the Occupy movement and “screaming in the ears of” the brainwashed.

    Lupe later referred to Iggy Azalea as “some white bitch” as he defended his remark about the Aussie artist having “a place in HipHop.”

    1. “brainwashed ass more money on they feet than in they pocket ass niggas” …. this the type of shit that ethers is made out of

    2. so we got Iggy Azalea, T.I., Lupe Fiasco, Will.i.am & 9th Wonder vs. Azealia Banks, Tyler The Creator, Solange & Q-Tip. Grabs Popcorn

      1. Yeah cuz we all know IGG couldnt do anything to hurt her soul. Banks would BODY IGG…. and she knows it. That’s why she can’t fight back with a track… She is no Nicki…. Nicki got back at Lil Kim on SEVERAL TRACKS…. WELCOME TO HIP HOP IGG.

      2. IGG already did hurt her soul fool. Thats why shes writing 2 dozens angry tweets at her everyday and crying on the radio instead of working on her shitty no music thats not even hip-hop. Speaking of tracks where is Azealia Banks track going at IGG? Oh yeah she lives on twitter.

      3. Azalea Banks’ problem is Azalea fucking Banks:

        noisey.vice.com/en_uk/blog/azealia-banks-needs-to-sit-the-fuck-down-and-listen-to-some-good-advice

        Its her own fault she isnt as big as she thinks she deserves to be. Chick needs to shut the fuck up.

    3. Wonder what would happen if white people referred to a sister as “black bitch”….dissapointing to see a guy who tries to portray himself as an intelligent person like Lupe does somethin as dumb as that

      1. LOL yeah this the same guy who made the song called “bitch bad” with the lyrics going “Bitch bad, woman good, lady better, they misunderstood”

      2. She is white and she is a crazy racist bitch. (And not just to blacks I should add.) And you are confused by Lupe’s albums. Lupe is and has always been a street nigga inherently making him bilingual. He uses his second language here to display his frustration with this turn of events as many people who are bilingual in other languages notably do.

      3. Did she hold a KKK rally that I didn’t hear about? How is she crazy or racist? She’s a white girl practicing a primarily black genre of music which she was obviously heavily influenced by. Not to mention the black friends. Do you really think a black man like T.I. would co-sign a racist?

      4. You don’t have to hate black people to be a white supremacist. You should really read up. I’m not trying to be condescending but if you can look at her messages to Azealia Banks and not be personally offended your missing something. She told her she didn’t have the brain capacity and basically that she was a bitter black woman with a chip on her shoulder. And thats not even the worst of Iggy’s exploits. She is a really horrible person and a typical racist in every sense of the word. She’s just not violent. Do your research bro.

      5. @Logic, you are a fucking idiot. Keep talking that shit about iggy being racist if it makes you feel better about hating her because shes white. Racist.

    4. Wow .. First time since Lupe transformed into Whoopi that I actually Respect him again .. It’s hilarious that Q-Tip, Solange and Tyler are trying to turn this into a Race thing .. when the Truth is the Racial Issues are so beyond them and there are real Soldiers making an Impact .. This is Entertainment and Music specifically and Thanks to the Internet .. the People have the Power to Support and Listen to whatever they want .. If you don’t like it, then Move On and Support what you do Like

    5. nowadays the hype about these twitter debates lasts longer than the actual music’s shelf life. there’s no way we’d care about any of these people if they weren’t using up this racial debate for attention.

    6. It was good to see will i am also say supportive words. Shows there is some actual decent people in the back hip-hop community. Cheers for the support guys, we will remember it when needing support artists at shows. Psych. Genuinely though, only the first two sentences are ture, I’m just playing with you people.

      1. What are u talking about?? U wanna complain about us pulling out the race card and gthen u wann pull out the race card….. this is HIP HOP…. Did u know that Lil Kim came for Nicki….. People like Common, Ludacris and others came for DrAKE…. KRSONE AND ICETEA came for Kanye…. She isnt going thru anything that back rappers had to go thru….. WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

    7. in other news a 16 year old nigga in ohio that just lost his life trying to steal another mans jordans at the mall

      1. why wouldnt you be allowed to post? they have never blocked comments.. they dont even delete the racist shit (hint: if you use some bad words your posts wont show up)… you were probably being a fuckboy

      2. Yes they have. U are just saying that b.c they didnt block pro IGG posts that u make on this site. I never said anything racist about that girl and they blocked it.
        BTW, people are on here making racist statements about black people ALL THE TIME SO DON’T GO THERE.

        They don’t want people to say anything agaisnt her but u can say whatever u want about Nicki.

      3. stop lying. they dont block shit! the comment section is just fugazi and dont work right. they hardly delete the sp@mmers talking bout making 8000 in 3 hours from home.

      4. Bruh are you listening to yourself? How would they differentiate between a black and a white comment? DO you think they got someone sitting at a desk picking which comments get published? Have you not seen all the racist anti white comments that get spewed on here?

      5. im white and half the comments i type in never show up either so find a new conspiracy fool. it has nothing to do with iggy or race the website is fufu.

      6. im white and half the comments i type in never show up either so find a new conspiracy fool. this is my second time trying to post this one so it has nothing to do with iggy or race, the website is just fufu.

    8. MAJOR NEWS: NICKI MINAJ COVERS ROLLING STONE MAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      NCKI SELLS OVER 200,00 FIRST WEEK NOT INCLUDING STREAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!
      QUEEN OF RAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. For real. Like how does this white girls lil pop raps take away these whiners ability to enjoy and support the hip-hop they feel is worthy of attention! 9th Wonder spoke some real shit saying “You like FANCY? GREAT…that shit ain’t gone STOP me from liking BLACK MOON….21 years and counting….” “So to @IGGYAZALEA, your fans support your shit, at LEAST they BUY it! That energy & support needs to transfer to some of these complainers.”

      2. Exactly my dude. Support what you CLAIM you like. Early hip-hop use to have NO and I mean NO radio play. And NONE of them were recognized with Grammys. Didn’t stop me from buying their ART.

      3. Actually we are FORCED to listen to her, On Radio and TV. Those Marketing $$$ are being put to work. and trust me it’s not the people calling the Radio and TV Stations requesting Iggy.

      4. Umm… change the channel dude! What the hell are you listening to anyway? I have satellite radio and have never heard Iggy played on any of the 3 hip-hop stations one time. To this day I have never heard 1 full Iggy song in my life… its really not that hard to avoid.

      1. this BS is on all the hip-hop websites right now. the funny thing is is people would just STFU about her she might fade away like macklemore did

    9. NEW MC EIHT ALBUM COVER FOR WHICH WAY IZ WEST ON EITH’S TWITTER PAGE GEEAH IT’S A COMPTON THANG AND ONE TIME GAFFLED EM UP , SO BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR THE STREIHT UP MENACE BECUZ IT’S THICKER THAN WATER BABY ME AND YOU GEEEEEAAH 8 HYPE IS IN THE HOUSE SO WAKE YO PUNK AZZ UP GEEEAAAAH

    10. Muslims never put black people first. Hatred of black people and endorsement of slavery are parts of the religion.

      1. You clearly have no knowledge on Islam because that statement was ridiculous. Some of the most important and influential people in the religion were black! The prophet’s own adopted son was black, whom he freed from slavery. Heck, Moses and other prophets were most likely black. I’ll leave you with this part of the prophet, peace be upon him’s last sermon – “An Arab is not better than a non-Arab and a non-Arab is not better than an Arab”. Judgement is not the key to understanding others.

      2. It sounds like you have doctorate in Islamic studies, please tell us what Muslims look like?

        Look at a fucking atlas, Somalia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Ghana etc etc, filled with Muslims who are black, then look at the largest Muslim country in the world Indonesia filled with 200 million very Asian looking Muslims. Arabs are a minority among Muslims but just happen to be on the news all the time, the vast bulk of Muslims are spread across North Africa, sub Saharan Africa and Asia.

        If you weren’t an ignorant little shit then you’d probably have heard of Malcolm X, hdo you know that he went for a pilgrimage to Mecca and saw blond hair blue eyed Muslims, black Muslims, Asian Muslims and his perspective change completely he came back and changed his name from Malcolm to Malik Shabazz. He did a lot for black people, what the fuck have you done apart from being a micropenised bitch crying behind a keyboard?

      3. I did about as much as you for black people: Make fun of big lips and roll up my windows when I drive past because they all look like thieves lol. But I like LeBron though, he a cool basketball player.

    11. This dude is a young Uncle Tom who knows he is part of the industry he better side with the devil or else he and his little career will be on a milk carton MIA “

      1. I can tell you white. We all voted Obama without even knowing his agenda, because it don’t matter. At least one of us made it to the top. We all better off now, aint no more poverty or racism anymore.

    12. Lupe’s last Twitter rant: “Fuck Whoopi Fiasco! He whines about everything!”
      Lupe’s Twitter rant defending Iggy: “I love Lupe. He is correct!”
      Lupe’s next Tiwtter rant: “Fuck Lupe! He’s always whining!”

    13. I wish Chief Keef had stomped the shit out of Lupe when he had threatened too. This asshat is always talking and always complaining, and turning out mediocre rap to a fanbase that thinks it’s great

      1. chief keef is a midget who dont know how to fight. lupe would wash his ass but we all know keefs friends would all have to jump in or he would use a weapon. chief keef would never win a 1 on 1 fight unless he was fighting a school kid.

    14. A Banks is smart to cause all this nonsense over a white rapper performing music since Ms Banks has been under the radar and needed some free publicity. Getting some attention off of Iggy’s successful coat tails was genius. It is a common tactic in show business. Banks is accomplishing her goal. Total nonsense to claim music belongs to her people. Music, art, dance and anything creative belongs to everyone and cant be possessed even if a group berthed the art form. really pathetic.

      1. Rap belongs to black people. No one else can do it. And if they take a piece of it, then they’re a culture vulture or thief. So STFU and let us talk about our black brands like Cadillac and Gucci. Real Talk!

    15. Nobody should really pay attention to Lupe Fiasco cause he pretty much lost hes fucking mind over the past few years that nowadays we dont know what tha fuck he talking about and Will I.AM is simply POP period.

      1. Say you ont undersstan him but plenty do. You dont have to agree with everything he says but he speaks a lot of truth.
