On a recent installment of an Atlanta-based radio show, T.I. defended his label signee, Australian rapper Iggy Azalea after Azealia Banks criticized her on Twitter.
"How can you endorse a white woman who called herself a 'runaway slave master'? Sorry guys. But I'm pro black girl. I'm not anti-white girl, but I'm also not here for any1 outside of my culture trying to trivialize very serious aspects of it," Banks tweeted of Iggy.
T.I. responded with some practical business advice for Banks:
"If you spend half of your day getting money and the other half of your day counting money, you ain't got no time in your day to worry about nobody else."
Later Banks responded in kind, tweeting at the Grand Hustle rapper, "You corny for that one."
