The Bee Hive has been buzzin' consistently since Beyonce's HBO release of Lemonade. My timeline was flooded with Black girls praising the imagery, lyrics, and symbolism of the album. It wasn't too long before the memes too flooded in. They offered up hilarious images of Jay-Z in response to Beyonce's cheek and tongue lyrics. The same lyrics that allowed for speculation about unfaithfulness on Jay's part. The song "Sorry" is an empowering break up song as she sings of middle fingers up, "I ain't thinkin' 'bout you." The song ends directing the cheating partner to "call Becky with the good hair." Just as quickly as my timeline flooded with positive responses it wasn't too long before the negative ones poured in. Countless White women ran to twitter to exclaim their distaste for the album. Many began to insist that the term "Becky" was a racial slur. Along with that claim came other racial slurs and insults flung at Black women. Tweets like the following show the duality of allegedly being insulted by a racial slur while wielding another.

While whether or not Becky is a racial slur has been up for debate, what is clear is that Iggy Azalea's tweets were even less desired that that above.

What is interesting is that the "rapper" suddenly has a response to race relations. Fans and members of the Black community have called her out for being silent during our oppression. When the #BlackLivesMatter movement began to gain steam she was questioned countless times. She did what most White people do, they don't speak up until they feel offended. What's interesting is that Azalea is being a typical Becky. The term is often used in response to typical White women. The same White women that fetishize Black men, put down Black women, promote White feminism, and continue to perpetuate White dominance. What Azalea did is what White women always do to Black women. She interrupted a joyous moment celebrating Black women with a loud "Hey look at me! But what about me!"as usual. Proving herself to be the Becky she claims she's not. Iggy constantly appropriates Black culture in her "rap" songs accompanied by her Blaccent. While countless individuals have called her out on this she's hardly made a peep in response. Yet when she heard of Beyonce's new lyrics she suddenly had so much to say.

Just like a typical Becky, not realizing that people of color can't be racist, and giving her opinion where it isn't needed. She later goes on to tweet about Black boyfriend Nick Young... typical.
