Australian musician Iggy Azalea has become the latest person to find themselves threatened by the hacker group Anonymous. The group began making threats against Azalea on Friday, December 19 via Twitter.
Tweeting from their @TheAnonMessage account, Anonymous demanded that the Aussie rapper apologize to Azealia Banks and protesters for her recent comments and actions.
They also stated that she’s “guilty of misappropriating black culture, insulting peaceful protesters, and making light of Eric Garner’s death.”
MESSAGE: @IGGYAZALEA, you have exactly 48 hours from now to release a statement apologizing to @AzealiaBanks and the protesters in NYC…

You are guilty of misappropriating black culture, insulting peaceful protesters, and making light of Eric Garner’s death. @IGGYAZALEA — TheAnonMessage (@TheAnonMessage) December 20, 2014
Weeks ago, Iggy declared that protestors at her show at University of Southern California were “trolling in real life.”

Iggy was given 48 hours to comply with the organization’s demands or risk being exposed through a scandal that “would be bigger than Bill Cosby’s.” Through their tweets, Anonymous hinted at possibly obtaining Iggy’s alleged sex tape.
There’s an X rated tape of you, we bet you’d certainly don’t want public, are we right? @IGGYAZALEA….and this is nothing. Comply or else.

The “Fancy” collaborator also lashed out at fellow artist Azealia Banks over the weekend after she was criticized by the Harlem, New York rapper during Banks’ interview on Hot 97. According to Iggy, there are “black artists succeeding in all genres” and Banks isn’t successful because of her “piss poor attitude.”
Special msg for banks: There are many black artists succeeding in all genres. The reason you haven’t is because of your piss poor attitude. — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) December 19, 2014
