(AllHipHop News) Hip Hop legend Q-Tip may have expressed his Twitter message to Iggy Azalea in the spirit of “hopeful healthy dialogue,” but apparently that is not how Iggy received it.
The Australian entertainer returned to Twitter to offer a response to Q-Tip. She called the A Tribe Called Quest member’s tweets “patronizing,” but she also acknowledged her music as “pop rap” as compared to Hip Hop.

most people learn every and anything they can about the subjects they are passionate about, I'm no different.

i find it patronizing to assume i have no knowledge of something I'm influenced by, but I've also grown up with strangers assuming that.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014
so its completely fine and I'm used to it by now. i don't lose any sleep over it.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014
im also not going to sit on twitter & play hip hop squares with strangers to somehow prove i deserve to be a fan of or influenced by hiphop.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014
i would have to be an idiot or incredibly bored to think that would change anyones already cemented opinion of me. I'm neither.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014
how you feel about me blending musical genres together doesn't bother me, no one is making you support or buy pop rap albums.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014
its entirely up to you what you support and are interested in, thanks if you are interested in me and enjoy my music. i love to hear that!
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 23, 2014

How the f### can you address a rap legend like @QtipTheAbstract and refer to "hip-hop" squares in the same breath??!?!?!!?!?!?!
— AZEALIA BANKS (@AZEALIABANKS) December 23, 2014
Qtip gave you some insight into the culture you're influenced by and you really sat there and told him he's hip-hop squares.

Stop waiting for artists to be "COOL" or "UNCOOL" before you decide to form an opinion, or when somebody becomes "the talk"…
— 9th Wonder (@9thWonderMusic) December 23, 2014
Quit being sheep ass n##### and make your favorite artist…"THE TALK"….buy and support your artists to the end of the earth….
