In a recent interview with Hard Knock TV, Scarface expressed his discontent with the state of hip-hop, feeling as though there’s a “conspiracy against blacks in hip-hop.”
And even though the Houston rapper’s comments were directed towards white executives who control record labels, Hard Knock TV sat down with Iggy Azalea to hear her response on Scarface’s opinion.
In Iggy’s rebuttal, she delves deep, as she talks about the segregation of cultures and how record labels (the white executives) don’t dictate what music the public consumes or doesn’t consume.
“It’s not old white men creating the content and it’s not old white men buying the content either. Yes, they’re the middleman putting this out, but it’s just a bank,” she said.
“I think this idea of ‘rap should be black’ or ‘rap should be this or that’ is worrying to me because it’s like—segregation. Why would you want to segregate cultures and races and things like this? Isn’t that where conflict has always come from in the world?”
Iggy Azalea definitely knows what she’s talking about.
