Kelly, who took to his track ‘Rap Devil’ (which currently sits at #1 on iTunes charts) to diss Em, was the recipient of a fiery clap back from the Grammy winner via today’s ‘Killshot’ (click here to listen).  While firing off a slew of insults, somehow Iggy Azalea got caught in the crossfire when the 45-year-old emcee stated:
