Nicki Minaj Laughs Off "Iggy Azalea Runs Hip-Hop" Article (@iggyazalea, @nickiminaj)



With the culture up in arms over a Forbes Magazine article which claimed Iggy Azalea runs Hip-Hop, the magazine felt the need to rename the story to placate critics. Still, the implication that Iggy is currently leading the culture doesn't sit well with many fans, hip-hop journos, and artists alike.


Queens rapper Nicki Minaj called into Power 105's The Breakfast Club and addressed the controversial article, laughing off the story and in short telling Forbes to stay in their lane:


"Listen, all Forbes needs to worry about is my finances and when I'm going to be selling Myx Fusion for $250 million, that's all they need to worry about. We rely on Hip Hop journalism and blogs for THAT kind of information. So we appreciate that, but no thank you."
