For fans of the Grammy-nominated rapper Iggy Azalea 2011 marked the year she touched down on Pop’s scene.
However, for those unfamiliar with her work before the release of her hit single ‘Fancy’, her “arrival” didn’t occur until 2014, the year in which she released her hit-delivering album ‘The New Classic.’
Why this is problematic? The unearthing of footage of the rapper shot before she became a household name, captured long before she became the polished Pop princess she is today.
Now, after her free styling skills were called into question because of this video, footage from her performance at 2013’s ‘Splash’ festival has seen her rap skills rubbished once again.
Confused?
Get lost in translation below…
The now viral clip sparked responses like the messages posted here.
So, what was the lyricist trying to say?
Tire marks, tire marks, finish line with the fire marks
When the relay startsI’m a runaway slave-master
Shittin’ on the past gotta spit it like a pastor
After, basher, did like doe like dasher, faster-motorbike faster
Iggy gotta get a bitch watch for my rapture
White bitch go, ’bout to blow like the wind
Penthouse too roof top at the wind
When I win, when I win I win, no when I wid ’em they good like shin
Got hoes on call, got hoes on call to come through take a pro-to-call
Just damagin’ that’s my protocol
Dismantle ya, Australians on Slauson, no camera, I don’t care who you are
No coming back gotta give it to you raw,
Pitchfork point better pass me the joint
Gotta twist this beat I’ma sprang my joint
Straight crack rock, go to the pop-pop
Pumo jiggy rap city, no tiggy – yeah shorty do illa’ I’m raw no digga’
what’s my muthafuckin’ name it’s Iggy not Jiggy
Is that what you heard?
Let us know below!

LMAO well Nicki was right she has no competition. Like none at all
Popularity wise no. Talent wise Tink and A. Banks give her a running for her money.
But this chick is so mediocre it hurts…
Tink, Iggy, & Azealia are far from Nicki’s level… talent-wise & popularity-wise. Nicki’s flow is on point, ALL THE TIME! Tink & Azealia are very good rappers, & could possibly go mainstream…. but Iggy is just plain horrible. She can’t even get a hit without a featured artist. & her fans are delusional, especially if they think that she’s better than Nicki… at anything. Please don’t come for Nicki, with Iggy as your defense.
@iLove
Did you read what I wrote? Where did I use Iggy to go after Nicki?
Some of you are so obsessed with the people you stan for that reason goes out the window.
All I said was talent wise A. Banks and Tink give Nicki a run for her money, and I still stand by that statement…
I guess calling Iggy mediocre was giving her big ups in your book.. smh.
Correction… I’m a fan of Nicki, not a stan. There’s a huge difference. & yes, mediocre is too big of a title for Iggy. & you know damn well that Tink & Azealia aren’t as talented as Nicki… so you’re standing by a false statement. Try Again…
@iLove
Lol @ The Iggy comment. The rest is nonsense. From my perspective it is not a for gone conclusion that Nicki is more talented. If that’s what you believe fine. You however are but misguided to assume everyone thinks
the same as you.
and excuse me for assuming you were a stan when you completely misrepresented my 1st statements to assume I was coming for Nicki.
That kind of reaction is something I see from stand, so..
The delusion! Uggly is Icky’s competition and it can easily become a Gaga vs Katy swap at any moment because even after 5 years, Nicki haven’t improved and is selling less and less. Don’t forget that No Classic and Pink Sh1t aren’t far from each other. 🙂
Lol. 🙂
You die hard Rihanna fans are really bad at math. How long has Nicki’s album been out versus Nicki’s??? Last time I checked, TPP is on par to sale more than Roman Reloaded. Give it a rest dank
*Iggy’s album versus Nicki’s
Up-and-coming female rappers that can rap better than HOnika Garbaj (in no particular order):
– Azealia Banks
– Tink
– Angel Haze
– Tiffany Foxx
– Sharaya J
– Brianna Perry
– Lady Leshurr
Stop gassing this stink pussÿ ho! HOnika is not that good, and once bitçhes start popping in the mainstream they’ll expose HOnika for the average bitćh that she is!
–
What?
what does talent have to do with success?
i don’t like iggy but she has done what she was supposed to do – make catchy songs for a mainstream audience.
Stop pretending that it takes talent to be big. The same people attacking her are the same ones buying other trash music.
But her flow and “rhymes” are not the catchy parts of her songs… the featured artists have those. & It’s not all about making it big. If you’re really passionate about making music as you say you are, you wouldn’t just make catchy songs… you spend time & creativity on good, quality music. Which is why Nicki will be around much longer than she will. No shade, just facts!
I think your opinion on what you consider “creative” is objective. To someone like her, her music is creative and the millions of other people who buy and request her singles. I don’t like her music as it’s just not for me, but again for those on her basic level, her music is the cats meow of creativity….
Those videos had me in tears, people really don’t rate Iggy lol
God lord she sucks
This s*** is way too funny! I stay dragging the Azealians or whatever their called with these vines.
Azealia called out this fraud almost 2 years ago for her “Runaway s**** master” remark and NOBODY wanted to listen, now that everyone realises she is charlatan peeps want to pay attention.. kmt, It’s because of people always following trends rather than paying attention to real talent that people like Iggy are able to get away with things like this, while real artist like Azealia remain misunderstood and there amazing work gets ignored!
i used to say they should give this chick and chance, because people were too hard on her, but i must take that all back this chick is awful and she is getting worse every day.
she is making a mockery of rap music and that is the sad part,and she is being successful in a gern of music doing this b-llsh!t. every time she calls her so-called music rap it just embarrass hip-hop culture making it take a L.
GIRL BYE
Azealia Banks>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Igloo
Without question..
Sad that some ppl really think she makes good rap music …
I heard someone call her the new tupac….. XD
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!
the reason i didn’t call you a lying troll is because i have hear and seen it written that she is the new tupac, i almost threw up when i saw it.
I heard someone call her the new tupac….. XD shoot me
LMAO!! Sasafrass and Maamajamma!! 🙂
Imagine stanning for this girl though? How BASIC must your taste in music be?
#AustralianStripperPotato
#DEATH
YALL want this girl to fail so bad & it’s pathetic ,..
I’m confused. Who was rapping in that video? Her or her haters?
Her “rapping” is pathetic! Did you not watch video?
You can’t deny talent boo boo. She can’t rap yet calls herself a rapper.
First things first she’s the realest?
I gave her a shot in 2012 cuz I liked p****, I thought it was hot. Every time she released something new it got progressively worse and I kept force feeding myself that b******* in an attempt to like her but I just couldn’t do it, she is just AWFUL and offensive with that fake ghetto s*** she puts on. Have you heard “red bottoms” or “u ain’t my daddy”? They are are the worst things I’ve ever heard from a rapper trying to be a legit artist. *begins playing Ice Princess*
Oh please
B**** sit, you know she’s complete ass
girl yes I saw p**** on WSHH and I got into her and every mixtape and song was just terrible once she released glory I was done
Wait she still saying slavemaster…. I thought she was sorry about that
Nicki fans gotta be the last out here throwing shade just cause ur fav got scarfre or wwhatever it is writing her verses. And that screaming voice and ish is done be go worse than what Iggy done so y’all hood chicks better keep them two lips close
Those vine vids had me weak!!! XD
Lmfao where’s M*******, Rosebud and the other two Iggy Stans that would drag Nicki and Banks? This is horrible and I knew she wasn’t any good but what the f*** is this? This is tragic and M******* and RoseBud deserves to be dragged too
Not TGJ blocking the word Mol-estor
B.I.r ya p** of cause ur ghetto a** is shocked by everything ya hood a** at used yo.back to the trailer park hoooop
And barfs better be done shutting up they mouths when massive attack and trash like that hello good morning trash is real.call Iggy trash but dont forget ur fave is done be not a rapper either.have ya actually looked at Nicki’s ex boyfriends lyrics she calls her own.yuck.y’all better stop penny pinching cause we ain’t need ya two cents.bunch o bums
At least nicki kept on beat and flow was decent on those songs. She never had a problem staying on beat or making a bop that consisted of hot bars. Iggy Stans cannot stand next to Barbs, yall are on the level of vanilla ice
Nicki stayed on what lol.ya either deaf or slow.that chic ain’t stay on anything, she was done up a** dumb with those lined.I sorta missed that deer,that line was dumb and so are others.barfs shouldn’t be coming for Iggy while their fav be like that
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XaaL2U8_2xw
Nice. It’s so clear who has raw talent and who is a gimmick..
This video of this corny b**** is hella old.
To all the Iggy’s, this is how it’s done https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9a3_ff0IHqE
THAT COW HAS NO SKILLS AND SHE TRIED IT WIV KIMMY BLANCO ON TWITTER. AZOO-LIA NEEDS TO GROW SOME EDGES AND SELL A FEW SINGLES BEFORE SHE TRIES IT WITH THE BEEHIVE.
You’re not called the beehive, you’re the DPRK (Google if you don’t know what that is). You Kim Jong Lil Stans are just upset that PayPal can’t accept ebt and you had to use actual money so you couldn’t Re-Boost that month.
DEATH @ DPRK!!!!
LMAOOOOO! DPRK
OH AT ARIANATORBARB GRABBING MY LACEFRONT AND READING MY RELATIVES !!
The funny thing is that Nicki showed skill EVEN when she was using gimmics in her verses. You an hear every word in every single verse even when she was screaming, THAT is what you call skill and good diction (two things Iggy lacks)
Also, thees’ a little thing called metaphors. Go to rap genius if you want to see why people call Nicki a lyrical genis.
And when it comes to Safaree writing her lyrics? Please. Even HE didn’t say that. He said he used to help by adding a line or two here and ther and she acknowledged that by crediting him on the songs.
Tell a quak quak,I sorta missed that deer then I pressed the Lil button IMA seat back here,I’m the only thing hopping like a kangaroo, I ball I hit him with the mascot,pop her like a molly.These are lines by yours truly so barfs better pipe it wen nick sounds like this
Prepare to be schooled.
http://genius.com/34797
Scroll down to Nicki’s part and get an education boo boo.
By the way, the deer you line you were laughing at has more layers than a fat b**** does during the summer time.
That line is a sneak diss about the rapper Bambi who tried to pick a fight with Nicki but failed hence “swerve on em sorta like I missed that deer.”
Nicki got this h** stressed, pressed, and depressed. There you go sweetie, seethe. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LIC4NWYPRVY
PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST YALL….. Well kim’s new chinese face would know.
Also notice how Iggy fans spend more time trying to discredit Nicki than they do defending Iggy’s lyrical ability. I don’t have to discredit Kim to prove Nicki is better because Nicki does that herself with her TALENT.
Beyonce fans don’t need to drag Rihanna because Beyonce does that with her TALENT. Iggy fans have such little faith in her talent that they don’t even bother trying to stick up for her rap skills and even say “who cares if she doesn’t have talent, she’s making money.”
That’s a damn shame because even the Navi would take the time to pull out a video of Rihanna’s best vocals if I said she couldn’t sing live.
WOW! Eek.
And @NatalieLaRose or @Rosebud…. whomever which Tinashe stan were you directing those comments to about dissing Iggy’s “Reclassified”, “New Classic” and “Trouble”?
I hope it wasn’t to me because I never said anything about Iggy yet nor have I talked about your fave because I truly don’t know much.
THERES ONLY ONE TINASHITE STAN UP IN HERE. YOU KNEW YOUR NAME AND YOU WERE BEING CALLED OUT PUNTA
drag that b*tch before I do it.
kiiiii “I don’t know much”
Woww. What a joke. I’m more shocked at the fact that the crowd was screaming “YEAAHH” like she’s killing some shyt. Ctfuu. People are easily impressed nowadays.
Reminds me of a certain Stan base.
I agree, she’s really crap and she still with the “runaway s****.. Master” b*******
This has got no Talent. I blame every one that brought her music. She is an Insult to rap, she makes a mockery of rap.
What Pumkin did to New York is what Iggy does to hip hop on a daily basis
WHAT PUMKIN DID TO NEW YORK IS WHAT I WANT TO DO TO CENTURION. SPIT ON THAT B****.
Poor Molly. XD
Almost 50 comments in and no sign of Rosebud Nd Molestor.
I was looking for SMolly. Come gey this @ss whooping. Lol
Lmao 76 comments and still no signs of em.. They made tinashe and split before the dragging commences lol
That shít was horrible. Dzamn! I’m a little obsessed with Iggy vines. The people who make them are geniuses. 😆
She sounds like that EVERY F***** PERFORMANCE!!!
The second hand embarrassment is strong with this one. Omg that is so painful to watch -_-
*faceplam*
I think it’s hilarious how you pressed ass b****** are saying Iggy is making a mockery of and embarrassing hip hop culture? Is it 1995? Turn on the f****** radio! I would rather hear her s*** than f*** b******, trap queen, that b**** look better red, stripper money h*** b******* that is infiltrating the airwaves. Half of y’all don’t even listen to rap y’all just pressed for no reason!!! GO IGGY!!!
Hey Molly. Kiii
Shut the f*** up ugly
When will bitchara?
When you get some walls BYTCH!!!
Honey Co.caine is better
Well these videos prove one thing, she didn’t say she’s a run-away s**** master. She said she is a run-away train master. Whatever that means, I have no idea.
SHE SAID IT ON THE RECORDED TRACK IDIOT, THEN SHE CHANGED IT WHEN SHE DID IT LIVE.
You know damn well that bish just finished watching roots then recited over this and crank her whip as she said “master” lmao I cant wid her. She’s miracle whip over white bread dipped in marshmallows, she just cannot rap
LMAO, I can’t
LMAOOOOO!
Azealia Banks slays both of them though
https://youtu.be/pN9OsccBvQA
Azealia banks gets way too much props from online imposters. What the hell does she be saying so great. She has no exceptional lyrics that anybody can name. She is not that great like some of you act.
And Barbs need to stop playing, this still happened. You’ll forever have to live with this
https://youtu.be/T6j4f8cHBIM
B****, you have to live with that mile-long 18 wheeler turned to the side ass p****. SIT YOUR ASS DOWN!!!
Yassss hunty I livvvvvve for stupid h*** like ya assss
I’m still bopping to that March Madness of our bad gal Riri, she slayedT that stage. damn Vocals on fleek. Amerihcan oxygen indeed.
Who is rosebud?
Rosie
Nicky said it best “these wack h*** could get hot for one summer.”
Ok DEATH!!!!!!
This is funny to me, everybody going in on Iggy but fact of the matter is, her raise to fame has been as simple as Nicki’s. They are both pop stars so when you hear Nicki saying “I’m still the highest selling female for the record” how can you not laugh? On every album she has released it mainly consisted of pop music… Why? Cause she sucks at rapping and she isn’t meant to be doing it. On the few songs she did rap on she had to have features and you can hear both Wayne and Drake in her lyrics. If we calling a spade a spade than let’s keep it 100% Nicki is not a rapper either. People get thirsty for main stream and in the process will do what ever it takes to get some buzz. Remy Ma came straight from jail and dropped a mix tape that only feature one person and that’s her husband. No pop s*** just straight rap and bars for days. Its called doing what your passionate about and not selling out to pop to try and be current and main stream.
Gurl bye, stay away from that coke you’ve been snorting, it’s really messing with you. You’re not even a REAL Remy Ma fan. Learn to stay on topic. This has nothing to do with sales or how both Nicki & Iggy got to the top. What’s clear though is who has REAL TALENT and whose fake.
Nicki been rapping from her comeup days. Why you think Wayne even wanted her. When Drake was on degrassi Nicki was pushing mixtapes on streets and rapping in front of stack bundles. Why you think she been on so many certified rappers sht? She did pop cuz she smart. GTFOH

Ding ding ding ding ding! We have a winner!
Bye bye Molly, you’re not fooling anyone.
what u even talking about? Nicki been rapping from her comeup days. Why you think Wayne even wanted her. When Drake was on degrassi Nicki was pushing mixtapes on streets and rapping in front of stack bundles. Why you think she been on so many certified rappers sht? She did pop cuz she smart. You probably juts started listening to rap anyways and dont know the history. GTFOH
Loooooooool hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahhahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I think I watched that Vine compilation over 20 times, I even had to pull aside my car because I was dying of laughter. Barb Wire is ready and on stand by to drag a b****. Where is Molly, Rosebud and Rosie????!!! Come out you f****** cowards wherever you are. And to think there are people who stan for this atrocity. Oh David, weren’t you the one who force fed Iggy down our throats with all those posts. Like the “fair and unbiased” site you claim to be. Do a TGJ roundtable and discuss this crap I just watched. I’d love to read what you say about her now. And Where’s cough cough??? If this was Nicki, he would have left a thousand comments complaining that Nicki does the same s*** over and over again.
3 words: I AM DISGUSTED
I’m in tears!!! I’ve been seeing this all over Instagram! That one with Darwin at the end almost killed me. Just a joke. Mark my words they will be converting her into a pop start by 4th quarter.
This was both funny and sad to watch. Funny because those Vine editors are geniuses and they dragged her. Sad because this is what people think is talent, this is a slay. I won’t even drag the poor thang cause she’s been dragged enough.
To those commenters that refuse to see the truth right in front of their eyes. By deflecting/using Young Thugs, Fenty Wap & countless other irrelevant talentless rappers in this thread. Tyga, Fenty Wap, Young Thug, Soulja Boy etc get outted on their smack. A quick Google search on rap blogs and a twitter research would tell you that. The difference is that Iggy is mainstream, hence her dragging gets a larger audience. Know this, she’s not getting bashed based on the colour of her skin, but simply because she’s wack.
Sad thing is her white skin allows the machine behind her to appropriate black culture for mass consumption. And the GP ate eating it up based on her chart achievements. It’s funny that Iggy trolls(I don’t believe there’s a sane person who would stan for iggy) use the no1 single excuse when her talent is brought up(reminds me of a certain stan base)
“use the no1 single excuse when her talent is brought up(reminds me of a certain stan base)” I caught that shade.
If the shoe fits, lace that b**** up and wear it.
I did to but Metzo is just mad because that POp star is taking her faves spotlight and sales and hits. So why not ignore it
“use the no1 single excuse when her talent is brought up(reminds me of a certain stan base)”
LOL BUUUURRRNNN!!!! You told no lies.
You can buy your place on the charts, awards etc but you can’t buy talent.
You sure can, rumor has it bey bought a few!
Rumor has it, Rihanna’s used payola do but a few of those #1 singles.
The difference between the two is, Beyonce can back her s*** up with talent….and Rihanna cannot!

The Monster line at the end of her Flawless verse made the video for me, she ain’t never lied!
Im SCREAMING! Like bittch WHAT!???? LOL

And people give Ariana crap for pronunciation issues…..
We know why Iggy gets all the props she gets… I wont say nothing tough
Wtf?? Who cares that Iggy was not always polished, the haters always hate and the interest this lady generates in the media (whether social or otherwise) speaks for itself, IMO it is bitchiness for no other reason than jealousy. I hope this lady keeps doing what she loves and inspiring others to follow their dreams.

she really only messed up once.She only said when I win twice and instead of three times, like in the song. She was a bit faster than Nicky,who kept a fast, but steadier, in controlled paste.
nicki killed it…iggy nice try
