Is Iggy Azalea’s Video A Cardi Knockoff?
Iggy Azalea is back, y’all! Miss Milk Of Rapnesia is re-entering the rap fray to remind the game not to forget her in the midst of the women in rap resurgence we’re seeing in 2019. Her new single “Sally Walker” is heating up Youtube and is poised to be a big hit but there’s a big problem…Internet fans think it sounds strikingly similar to Cardi B’s “Money” from 2018. Azalea’s song has the same producer and co-writer and the songs are nearly identical. But that’s not it, the video features Iggy again surrounded by black people. This time at a funeral.
It’s another example of Iggy black-facing it up without the actual makeup. Twitter is damn near beside itself over all of this and wondering why, in the age of Megan Thee Stallion and prominent, talented black MCs is Iggy Azalea thinking she can find space to insert her cultural appropriation?

Wow Iggy Azalea for real just completely ripped off Cardi B. Just because you are a woman does not mean ripping off people’s work is not okay. Doing it to another woman, especially when you’re white and she’s a woman of color, is fuckin trash.
