## Transcript

Hackers have threatened to go after Iggy Azalea in what's turned into a bizarre racial back and forth. They say they'll release images of a sex tape involving the rapper, though she has said that no tape exists. The drama started when rapper Azalea Banks questioned the quality of Iggy Azalea's work saying black artists make music that's just as good without getting as much attention. Iggy fired back Friday on Twitter writing, black artists are successful across genres and saying Banks has a poor attitude. Your inability to be responsible for your own mistakes, bullying others, the inability to be humble or have self control.

It's you! A group claiming to be connected to the hacker group Anonymous soon demanded an apology from Iggy. Vulture grabbed some of the messages before the Twitter handle was suspended. There's an X rated tape of you, we bet you'd certainly don't want public, are we right? Iggy Azalea. And this is nothing. Comply or else. Iggy's reps haven't responded to media on the incident, nor has she tweeted anything about Banks since those threats. But just how credible they are has been questioned. A Twitter handle generally credited as legitimately connected to Anonymous says it didnt issue the threats.

It also retweeted a user who wrote, People, # Anonymous is not attacking Iggy Azalea. It's just that one guy. That one guy who always gets the story wrong. Rumors of an Iggy Azalea sex tape surfaced months ago but she has consistently denied such a tape exists.
