Uh oh, T.I. looks to be cooking up some trouble. The rapper recently sat down with Hot 97.1 FM's Ebro in the Morning (August 8) and when asked how his rising protégé Iggy Azalea is handling all the negativity that is being thrown at her recent success, he powered in to answer the questions head on.
After rapper Nicki Minaj's shady 2014 BET Awards acceptance speech for the 'Best Female Rapper' award, there has been much speculation that the "Anaconda" rapper has some sort of animosity towards Iggy. Although Iggy has yet to address her opinion on any beef with Nicki Minaj head on, her mentor T.I. sure did enough of it on his own during his recent Hot 97 interview.
T.I. told Ebro in the Morning:
"I got a call from Kim. She said it's time to find that record to get done."
Nicki Minaj's long-time rival Lil' Kim holds nothing back when she's coming for the YMCMB first lady who she recently accused of "swagger-jacking" her style in her latest single "Identify Theft." The Queen Bee is very blunt in telling her fans straight up who she is looking to put back into their place; so if there is any truth of a Iggy and Lil' Kim collaboration, they're about to go in for the kill.
T.I.'s not one to usually promote drama but he definitely seems intrigued on what is to come from this situation as he schools his mentee on how to protect herself within the industry.
"Well, in the game of chess, you must think five moves ahead, protect your pieces and cover the board."
He also briefly touched on the possibility of Iggy collaborating with Remy Ma, who was recently released from prison and immediately jumped right back into the Hip Hop game, in the near future.
Yeah, she's a fan of the sport, I believe she's gonna be eager to show support...She with the nonsense.
With official word coming from The King of the South his self, an all out female MC war may just happen sooner than we think. Do you think Nicki Minaj is ready to eat all the fire that is about to be thrown at her?
