Iggy Azalea can learn a thing or two from M.I.A about being a non-Black woman in hip-hop. M.I.A. is respectful of the art form. She isn't playing a character like Iggy is and making a mockery of it. Most of all, she stays in her lane and has her own unique message she is trying to convey to her listeners.
