Iggy Azalea Offered A Sharp Defense Of Women In Music After Eminem Rape Rhyme

"I'm bored of old men threatening young women as entertainment."

Last month, Snoop Dogg dissed Iggy Azalea with an Instagram, igniting an online war.

Although they patched things up , Eminem recently came at her with perturbing rape lyrics in a leaked snippet from the forthcoming Shady XV album.

Eminem's lines are: "You're lucky just to follow my ride/ If I let you run alongside the Humvee/ Unless you're Nicki, grab you by the wrist, let's ski/ So what's it gon' be/ Put that shit away, Iggy/ You don’t wanna blow that rape whistle on me"

This was all following another Eminem threat to "punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice" via a freestyle, which pissed a lot of people off.

Iggy couldn't stay mum, so she went on Twitter to fire back, calling Eminem "old".
