After Iggy Azalea and Britney Spears‘ collab ‘Pretty Girls’ peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100, the Australian rapper had some suggestions for why the pop song seemed to flop.
Iggy Azalea & Britney Spears Team Up For ‘Pretty Girls’
The ‘Fancy’ rapper explains via Twitter,”It’s difficult to send a song up the charts without additional promo and TV performances, etc. Unfortunately, I’m just featured on the track. I would have enjoyed performing it a lot. I think it got off to a powerful start, but you need content to compete in 2015.”
Spears’ fans went into a frenzy after such comments, and media outlets called out Azalea for throwing shade towards the ‘Toxic’ singer.
Azalea tweets:
@ThePopZone my comment is factual, it applies to any song. I dont have to suck the womans asshole 24/7 to be her friend, do i? bye girls.

and Spears fires back:
Can’t wait to get back to Vegas. So thankful I have shows for the rest of the year to look forward to… #YouWantAPieceOfMe
