I graciously disagree with this authors opinion. All jokes aside, just because someone doesnt want to subject themselves to an overwhelming backlash by speaking out about social or political issues on their social media accounts, doesnt mean that they dont care. And honestly, if youre worried about why hasnt Iggy said anything in the wake of deaths caused by police brutality, I really question where your priorities are. As far as Hip Hop is concerned, yes, it is an art form. Yes, its a culture. Yes, it was started in the Bronx and helped people channel their energy towards something positive. It is also a form of entertainment. The music has spread all around the world and there are people of all different creeds, colors and backgrounds who have been so inspired by the music that they decided to pursue it. So congrats to Iggy Azalea for seeing success this year. Ive seen her interviews and Ive seen how her album kept getting pushed back so I know it was not easy for her. Well deserved.
