Wait, hold up. I just saw some info about her response to Q-Tip. No bueno. http://allhiphop.com/2014... - Eric - Final Countdown

TIP response http://allhiphop.com/2014... - Eric - Final Countdown

And the Iggy response: http://www.xxlmag.com/news... - Eric - Final Countdown

The article I shared features her response to that very long unsolicited history lesson Q-Tip provided. As she said, "i find it patronizing to assume i have no knowledge of something I'm influenced by, but I've also grown up with strangers assuming that." - Johnny

Yeah, that's bullshit. Q-tip is no Internet troll. Q-tip is an active person on Twitter. Responded to me when I had a question on Biggie once. He is trying to push the movement, but Iggy called him a square? WTF is that about. Q-Tip is a legend. LEGEND. Jay wouldn't go at LL when he had problems at Def Jam. "I don't go at legends". TIP came out with humility and Iggy comes out calling it Hip-hop squares. Nope, that is a fundamental misunderstanding of Hip-hop. - Eric - Final Countdown

You don't dismiss Q-Tip. You just don't. That's disrespect. - Eric - Final Countdown

"hip hop squares" as in "celebrity squares". He started by assuming she knew nothing about anything he was saying. Like he was educating her in an effort to allow her into the playground. Sorry, that's not very respectful to begin with. - Johnny

Did you see how TI responded? With respect, with unity. Iggy didn't. She just didn't. - Eric - Final Countdown

We must be reading different streams. A guy rolls up on my feed and presumes I have no knowledge of my passion and takes it upon themselves to publicly school me like I'm some Johnny-come-lately? Where is the unity and respect in that? - Johnny

Honestly, given the racist crap she's spewed (and then either pretended she didn't, or claimed ignorance) I just can't respect her. Nobody deserves sex-tape harassment; I'll never think that is OK, but that doesn't incline me to think better of her. - Jennifer Dittrich

If Grandmaster Flash, if KRS-One, if Afrika Bambaataa wants to give you a history lesson, you just listen. It's gold. GOLD! She or anyone else involved in Hiphop would benefit from those stories, even if they think they know it already. She's acting like a know it all teenager. It's not a good look. - Eric - Final Countdown

Also, I think you're confusing Q-Tip with TIP/TI, which she is signed to. TI has been on a mission to save her ass on Twitter. - Eric - Final Countdown

I'm not confused (again, another incorrect assumption). I have no issue with his lesson, it's the delivery. If it was really about outreach and understanding, there are private channels and better ways to go about it. If it was about the history of Hip Hop, then the constant @replies were an overkill. It was about schooling her DIRECTLY. - Johnny

Okay Johnny. I just saw that you mentioned "where's the unity" when I was talking about TI and not Q-Tip. That's where that came from. Cool. - Eric - Final Countdown

Welp, this is getting out of hand. The troll problem is extra real, even if I side with Q-tip. http://www.xxlmag.com/news... - Eric - Final Countdown

The whole thing reads like some classic publicity beef, just with more people involved. - OCoG of FF, Jimminy
