The rap veteran also said that he grew tried of always having to defend her from backlash on social media.
“In her defense, she had a lot thrown at her at one time,” TIP said. “Any human being anywhere gon’ have a hard time adjusting. It’s very difficult to be the new kid and to be the butt of the jokes. It came at a time where culturally in this nation—she’s not from here—we were actually looking for somewhere to place some pent up aggression and they just kinda got it for no reason. Some stuff they brought upon themselves.”
Iggy Azalea took to Twitter to downplay TIP’s comments saying that she still does business with the man the mentored her.
“Heres the deal, I am still signed to @tip and do business with him. The first ive heard of us having an “issue” is via a radio interview,” Azalea wrote on her Twitter timeline.
“He seems to think theres nothing wrong with what he said, everybody else seems to disagree,” she added.
