Iggy Azalea Signs To Interscope, Gets An Ill-Advised A$AP Rocky Tattoo

Unfair Cage Match - Help us decided if Iggy has a worse tattoo than Jermaine Dupri and a better live show than Da Youngstas.

Iggy Azalea wants to have like 10,000 of A$AP Rocky's babies.

You can try your best to ignore Iggy Azalea, the Australian female rapper that really likes talking about her va-jay-jay. After this weekend it’s gonna be a lot harder—she’s signed to Interscope Records.

Not too surprising, as she’s been managed by longtime Interscope movers-and-shakers George Robertson and Neil Jacobson since this past November. What is surprising is that she thought it’d be a great idea to get “LIVELOVEA$AP,” the name of A$AP Rocky’s new mixtape, tattooed on her hand.

Here’s an image of the tattoo in question:

Apparently the two are dating, so naturally they should have matching tattoos. But as much as we love A$AP (did you see our premiere of "Wassup" last week?), it’s sorta lame to get his name inked up on your hand—you know how these rappers are, always gallivanting around with young ladies, squiring them about town to the most debonair society parties.

Iggy’s not the first rapper to get a bad tattoo of their current flame. Jermaine Durpi isn’t either, but his giant Janet-Jackson-as-the-Virgin-Mary is still pretty fucking good:

Iggy's got her first record, The New Classic, coming out on Interscope in January. I still can’t get my head around her, mostly because I think she’s pretty untalented. So help me figure it out. Here’s a live vid of Iggy performing in San Francisco on Friday night, next to a performance by Da Youngstas we’ve been vibing on lately (thanks to @museumbabes for the tip). Da Youngstas were a bunch of hyper-talented teenage rappers from Philly that were totally overshadowed by Kris Kross’ success in the early 90s. Let us know if you think Iggy is honestly better than this ill shit.

Cage Match!

You decide.
