The war of words has most definitely erupted between Iggy Azalea and Snoop Dogg.
The
ARIA nominated artist hit back at the US rapper on Monday on social
media, after he posted a photo of a man and suggested it was the Fancy
singer without make up on.
Iggy,
24, used Twitter to voice her displeasure at the comments, saying: 'Why
would you post such a mean pic on insta when you send your body guards
to ask me for pictures every time we are at shows.
Hitting back: Iggy Azalea responded to
Snoop Dogg's Instagram post on Monday, suggesting she looks like a man
without make up - she Tweeted the rapper saying: 'I'm disappointed you'd
be such an a** for no reason'
Social media stoush: The American rapper has been involved in feuds before with artists in his musical sphere
She then added: 'I'm disappointed you'd be such an a** for no reason.'
TMZ reported the singer had made the post, but then deleted it from her account.
The
social media stoush started when the veteran 42-year-old rapper
Instagrammed a picture of a blonde, long haired male on Monday with the
caption 'Iggy Azalea no makeup.'
It's
not the first time he has taken pot shots at others in his sphere of
work - he previously feuded with legendary rapper Eazy-E and at one
point called out America's entire East Coast.
Many
of Snoop's 3.5million-plus followers were also tickled by the derisive
picture, as it scored thousands of likes and comments within hours.
It comes days after the Australian rapper was spotted sporting minimal makeup after she arrived at LAX airport last week.
Iggy
looked a natural beauty, wrapping her enviable figure in a black thigh
high slit maxi skirt and a dark greens sweater - but the Gin N' Juice
rapper jested otherwise.
And
while Snoop, who famously burst onto the hip hop scene over 20 years
ago with a song dissing rapper Eazy-E, poked fun at Iggy, other American
rappers have been harsher.
Brushing it off: It's not the first
time another performer has mentioned her name in recent months, as MC
Rah Digga called Iggy out for 'not being real'
The
rapper endured her share of controversy last month after fans perceived
Nicki Minaj's BET Award acceptance speech as a dig at Iggy.
'What
I want the world to know about Nicki Minaj is when you hear Nicki Minaj
spit, Nicki Minaj wrote it,' she said - prompting many to assume that
the Anaconda rapper was criticising her fellow female artist.
Nicki
would later clarify her comments on social media and deny that any
insult was meant by her comments, but another female rapper, MC Rah
Digga, called Iggy out, saying her music 'is not real to me.'
But
The New Classic in unperturbed, Tweeting 'Its definetly funny seeing
people get so emotional over it all. What does it matter? Music is music
and many enjoy mine, no need to feel upset.'
Veteran: Snoop famously burst onto the
national hip hop scene over 20 years ago, in 1993, with a diss song
directed at legendary rapper Eazy-E
