In a recent interview with GQ, Iggy discusses her tour, thoughts on haters and her impact on the industry. She goes on to claim that she “sparked a change” in Hip-Hop saying:
“You never know how long you’ll be in people’s good graces, especially in this business. So I hope it’s long—but I could be here for three or four years and then be out, like most artists. So it depends. I might be here for a long time. At the very worst, if I have a short-lived career, at least I could say I sparked a change—that I inspired some leniency in what people accept in hip-hop. And if I have a very long career and can be gyrating in a leotard at 35, that would be great.”
Per usual, folks online started calling her out on Twitter and a tweetstorm shortly followed…
The tweet that started it all:
