Azalea, who is white and Australian, has been the target of a nasty Twitter feud with rapper Azealia Banks.
Banks accused Iggy of not caring about black issues following the protests over Eric Garner and Michael Brown, both of whom were killed by police.
A number of public figures have protested a Grand Jury decision not to indict officer Daniel Paantaleo for killing Garner with a choke hold in New York City.
“Its funny to see people Like Igloo Australia silent when these things happen… Black Culture is cool, but black issues sure aren’t huh?” wrote Banks.
So far, Iggy has stuck to the high road in her responses.
“Theres more to sparking a change than trolling on social media. World issues shouldnt be used as a poor excuse to promote fan battles.
Iggy posted a link to “productive ways” fans could express their feelings.
Then, the hacker group Anonymous got into the act threatening to publish a sex tape unless she publicly apologizes to Banks.
“There’s an X rated tape of you, we bet you’d certainly don’t want public, are we right? ….and this is nothing. Comply or else,” it threatened.
The tweet was posted on Sunday while Azalea was delivering a knock out show that included a duet with Charlie XCX.
