Iggy Azalea Twitter: Rapper Blasts Beyonce For Racist ‘Becky’ Reference? [VIDEO]
It looks like some are having a hard time drinking what Beyonce is serving, especially when it comes to her "Lemonade." Apparently, rapper Iggy Azalea is none too happy with the chart topper, as she thinks Beyonce's "Becky" line in her new song "Sorry" is racist.
Iggy took to her Twitter account to slam Bey, accusing her of making a racial slur. In "Sorry," many fans believe Beyonce is suggesting that her husband Jay-Z might have cheated on with a woman named "Becky with the good hair."
Even though Iggy herself used the name in her 2012 song, "I Think She Ready," the Australian-born singer took aim at Beyonce in a new series of tweets.
According to the Daily Mail, she wrote, "dont ever call me a becky (sic)."
She added: "you would not be down if i started calling all black men 'deshawns'... do you know how many time ppl (people) have called me BECKY? it didnt have any kind of positive intention behind it (sic)."
If that weren't enough, she also said, "generalizing ANY race by calling them one sterotypical (sic) name for said race. i personally dont think is very cool, the end... I dont care. Dont call all asian women 'ming lee' dont call white women 'becky' dont call black women 'sha nay nay' (sic)."
Yet, Iggy insisted that she's still a Beyonce fan, despite the questionable song lyrics.
"This is not bey shade," she added. "i love her and the album. but my name is iggy, and you will all call me that."
