T.I. is doubling down on his comments about Iggy Azalea.
As reported, the King of the South went on record during a recent interview to label his former protégé as one of his biggest “blunders.”
Now, he’s expanding on his remarks.
In a new interview with The Breakfast Club, T.I.P was quizzed about his sentiments and it looks like his brand of candid will have folk talking all over again.
See what we mean below…
Speaking with the Power 105.1 show, he said of Azalea and the “blunder” comment:
“She was meant to be great. What happened was, and this is just my opinion…I’m not speaking down on her. This just my opinion. If she happens to be the biggest thing tomorrow, then great.
But as far as I’m concerned, I feel like when she found out white people liked her and she didn’t really need black people to like her anymore….she switched up. Started acting different, made moves that I wasn’t proud of. (Moves) that placed my reputation in the line of fire. And she was very arrogant about it and I felt like that energy led to motherf*ckers being like ‘ugh, we not f*ckin’ with that.’
And, outside of that, the raps were dope…at first. Of course she had…help [laughs]. And then she just exposed her self so much – Twitter, freestyle on Sway. All of it undid the good that had been done.”
Yikes.

Camila LEGENDARY Cabello over errrythanggggg!
TI wouldn’t even be relevant today if it wasn’t for Camila Cabello.
At first I didn’t think you were a troll because most of what you say does hold weight, now Idk. Hopefully you’re joking.
Pls that’s not me. It’s a troll account impersonating me.
My profile logo is a circle green head.
Pls ignore the troll. Thanks
Idk. It may be true but i equate that more to just being young. She was young when she came out and for a moment she was sitting pretty. I think that would make and young person with fame and money arrogant. Age humbles you.
Not true at all. Lil nas x is young and is a very humble young man. Age has absolutely nothing to do with someone being arrogant.
Ok. Thats one instance. When i was younger i thought i knew everything and i didnt need any help. As i got older i realized i dont know s*** and i need to calm it down. Im speaking from personal experience so Please dont try to tell me its not true.
You are the cutest guy I’ve seen in a long time.
Pls ignore the troll
My profile logo is a circle green head
Grape juice do something about impersonators
The name Clarkson has already been taken.
If I switch my name up this troll (@onlyfacts) will do the same.
We like the new Clarkson!! You’re DONE just like Camicky
We don’t need 2 Clarksons
??????????????
Do you really think you’re the only Clarkson in the world? Delusional much.
Take a seat on a big fat d*** b****.
Camilla is that b****!!! And you’ll deal!!! But Camilla is only that b**** with a feature! Camila ended all these h***….with a feature!
It’s either Jasmine or only facts behind this fake Clarkson profile.
A complete loser. Poor thing.
?????
People know my profile logo.
“Pls ignore the troll. My profile logo is a circle green head.” You sound crazy AF thinking you’re the only Clarkson in the world. Sorry I’m the Clarkson people like!
Hey punkass, do you think you’re the only Clarkson in the world? Hop off my jock you nerd.
She doesn’t seem to be this way today, but this is very believable. The problem is she didn’t understand the culture. If you’re going to attempt to be a hip hop artist, you can’t bypass the process of earning respect. Especially when you’re a white Australian woman who had old racist comments and failed to impress literally anyone, lyrically. She had a lot working against her and didn’t do enough to convince people that she had just as much working for her. It got to a point where artists who didn’t even have a problem with her, couldn’t work with her simply because of her embarrassing reputation.
☝?This.
She really didnt take her white act does hip hop 101 class because her career didnt have to end up this way. She needed to study Beastie Boys, Eminem, heck.. even Bubba Sparxx or Paul Wall lol ?
Instead she took the Vanilla Ice course and failed miserably soon after. ?
Precisely. If she had played her cards right, she could’ve succeeded. She made too many mistakes too early in her career. Collaboration is probably more important in the hip hop genre than any other. You can get away with being solo in pop and r&b, in fact it’s encouraged. But as a rapper? Nah, you need people and sis didn’t make enough friends.
Whoaa! I have to watch this interview later for sure but from what I’ve read, it really does make sense! A lot of sense Smh. But at the same time, with Tip being so influential in the industry, I just think him being silent would have been the best revenge or whatever he’s feeling. She’s literally trying to rebuild her name. Speaking ‘ill” like this on her name will just continue to tarnish it. She’s definitely changed since then. Her diarrhea of the mouth has calm down tremendously and her music is LIT.
That’s very ironic (and untrue) cause the actual and factual switch up was TI turning on her protegée cause he couldn’t train her to keep her mouth shut on Twitter. And I can’t @ him walking around talking about her rap skills like he is Nas or Jay-Z or anyone actually great.
He’s a lie! He turned on her because black Hip Hop legends were not feeling her. They would throw shade at her style of rap and she would respond to defend herself. He thought she was being disrespectful to the rap “Legends” when after all they came for her. So he felt that he had to choose “His” people over her. He turned on her when the culture didn’t accept her.
Hip hop legends? Literally NOBODY in the community, legend or not, famous or not, respected this girls “talent“. I highly doubt T.I. believed he discovered the next Eminem. Being successful in the music industry is rarely about talent. I think the real problem arised when it was clear that she didn’t have enough charm to win everybody over in spite of her flaws. I.e. Cardi. Success is where preparation meets opportunity. She had opportunity, but she wasn’t prepared. She didn’t understand the community that she wanted to be a part of. Because if she did, she would’ve known that if somebody throws shade at your “style of rap”, a TRUE hip hop artist, responds on the microphone, not on Twitter. The hip hop legends coming for you to see what you’re made of is a part of the process. It’s a part of proving yourself and she didn’t do that. You can only help somebody so much.
I agree w/ the handsome T.I.
His assessment is spot on. ??
People wanted to dislike her simply because she is a European white woman. You don’t have to be the greatest rapper to rap. She might have had a few tweets that were off. But she wasn’t too cocky. T.I. is just hopping on the bandwagon. If she were to still be making him money he’d be singing a completely different tune. Cardi is more of a personality. People aren’t hating that much on her.
White Male rappers behave arrogant and còcky and nobody says anything. G easy even used the N word and none of yall said nothing.
T.i is a bootlicker.. .., I Feel sorry for his mother.
T.I. is full of excuses. He saw a profitable, “exotic” white woman from the Outback and wanted to cash in.
I hear TI wants to turn Camila Cabello into his next female rap protegee. He will slay all the rap h*es. Camila has already proven herself to be the second-c****** of Whitney Houston.
You h*es could nevaaa
Lol goodbye.
Lol @ troll Clarkson ??
Keep dragging that insane Camilla stan!!!!!
I’m tired of all the hate on the white woman these days. You can say anything to or about white women these days, even viscously bulky and ridicule them with no repercussions.
But say the slightest criticism about a black chick and people immediately blame it on the chick being black and call whoever said it a “racist” etc etc, all hell breaks loose, it’s just a war.
It’s disgusting.
Women are women. People are people.
Keep the same energy and respect for ALL people. PEOPLE! No one is their RACE or SKIN COLOR!
*bully
You know who’s disgusting? Anyone except Camila Cabello. She’s the new Whitney and Mariah. Ariana could nevaaaa take the throne.
Excuse me, I’m sorry I missed that part where white women have experienced racism. I forgot that one time a white woman was turned away from doing a fashion cover or a gaining a lead role n Hollywood based on being white lol ????
You folks who cry white tears or feel sorry for a group that do NOT regularly experience the same discrimination never cease to amaze me.
Now you’re presuming my race… I’m either called a “c***” or told I’m white.
You’re regurgitating the same old same old. It doesn’t work the way you’re saying it does anymore, sweetie. You’re reading it off a script.
No sweetie, you’re living in a fantasy world. Delusional actually if you think white women have faced racism or discrimination for being white at any point in modern history.
What simple minds cant seem to handle or fail to realize is in order to be discriminate or be racist you need to have access to PRIVELEGE and POWER sweetheart. Historically, Africans have never held the same power of the colonizing/enslaving Europeans. Did you not go to social studies in grade school? ?
Idc what race you belong to. You need to stop comparing white woman tears to some kind of civil rights battle they’re currently facing. They’re simply being called out now for the B.S. cultural appropriation they regularly engaged in for centuries without being held accountable. Period.
Why do you b*tches never post about how Beyoncé has been flopping ever since Camila Cabello hit the seen?! Are you b****** in denial?! Camila is the new Beyoncé! The new Whitney! The new Celeine! CAMILA EATS THESE H*ES FOR BREAKFAST LUNCH AND DINNER! And we all know Rihanna doesn’t want to be seen on the same stage a Camila. Rih knows she can’t jiggle or wiggle or whine and dine like Camila.
I can’t wait for Camila to start acting like Nicki Minaj. She deserves to be a diva. “I AM YOUR LEADER SUCK A BIG D*CK!”
