T.I went on DJ Drama’s show on Atlanta’s Hot 107.9 to introduce his new Grand Hustle team Iggy Azalea, Chip (Chipmunk), and D.O.P.E. Iggy spoke on her Australian roots, the rap scene in her home country and her being placed on the XXL Freshman cover. She then mentioned Azealia Banks comments towards her on Twitter, such as questioning why she was placed on the XXL cover and Iggy’s use of the term ‘slave master’ in her lyrics. Iggy tried to keep the peace and did not say anything bad about Azealia just preaching support.
T.I though did not hold back, he said,
“Strategically if she really cares about a freshmen cover maybe she could hope that, you know, she’ll suck enough to get shelved and then next year when the freshmen cover comes back around, maybe she’ll still be a freshman. Which brings me to my next philosophy, if you spend half of your day getting money and the other half of your day counting money, you ain’t got no time in your day to worry about nobody else.”
Azealia heard about the interview shortly afterwards and took to Twitter again this time showing her anger toward T.I. defending his new signee saying…
