Iggy Azalea
Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg has gotten into a war of
words with newbie female rapper Iggy Azalea. Snoop fired off a
series of comedic, albeit insulting tweets and Instagram posts about
Iggy. When Iggy responded he reminded her he is a rap legend and she
is not, stating he had hit records when Iggy, 24, was in diapers.
Iggy currently has one hit "Fancy" and a debut album struggling in
the sales department.

Snoop has since apologized, after putting out a clip
online that was interpreted as a threat against Iggy. Snoop stated,
"Tip called me, it’s over. Got a lot of love for cuz, so I let it
go! Too much money on my mind to worry bout a biiiii**h ." Iggy
accepted his so so apology.
Iggy Azalea's diss to Snoop Dogg
Snoop felt slighted by Iggy and is also a friend of
rapper Nicki Minaj. It has been stated Minaj feels as though Iggy
has ripped of her career in look and sound. Rapper TI set out to
capitalize on the success of Minaj, by creating a white version of
her, via Iggy and it worked.

Similarities exist between the two
female rappers. Iggy was given butt enhancement procedures to
greatly enlarge her butt to look like Minaj's after it garnered more
attention than her music. Minaj has also had butt work done. Their
style of rap is also similar, at times leaving them sounding like
each other.
Snoop Dogg called Nicki Minaj the only relevant female in rap
Nicki took a dig at Iggy when she received an award
this year, stating she writes all of her raps, unlike a certain
artist. The next day, social media and the blogosphere had a number
of items stating it was an insult aimed directly at Iggy, who some
state has ghostwriters (the same claim was made about Minaj as
well). Some believe one of Iggy's alleged ghostwriters is mentor TI.
Ironically, rap legend Lil Kim complained Minaj
ripped off her look and sound. Lil Kim released comparative items to
illustrate this belief. Once again, there are many similarities
between the two. Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj also got into a war of
words on social networking, trading barbs over the theft
allegations [Lil
