A Timeline of Iggy Azalea & Playboi Carti’s Relationship

Iggy Azalea and Playboi Carti have been linked in an on-and-off relationship since 2018, but things between the two intensified during Christmas.

Playboi had a lot to celebrate on Christmas with the release of his sophomore album Whole Lotta Red, but Iggy wasn’t impressed as she rang in the holidays alone with their son. Azalea launches a Twitter tirade against the fellow rapper, who attended his album release party in ATL with fellow local rapper Lil Yachty, and alleges that he cheated on her during her pregnancy and invited the same woman to the party.

“Too bad you got an album out but can’t even come to Christmas with your own son,” Iggy began writing as part of the since-deleted Twitter diatribe. “Imagine not flying out your family on Christmas but you have the girl you cheated on my entire pregnancy at your album party and magically me and my son can’t come for Christmas any more? TRASH.”

She continues to slam him for playing video games in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic on the day Onyx was scheduled to be born via C-section. “I had onyx alone completely cause he was my only visitor approved with Covid. We lived together at that time. And even tho onyx was a PLANNED baby, that we both wanted. On some weirdo sh– he has still refused to sign his birth certificate,” Iggy writes with a picture of Onyx Kelly’s birth certificate. “He’s 9 months old. Won’t even give his son he claims to care so much about his own last name. Imagine how trash you are to do this to your first born son.”

One Twitter user urges her not to fall back into Playboi’s trap, but Iggy claps back and clarifies that she’s only giving him another chance for the sake of their son. “Girl I said he’s being accountable and we are giving him a chance to do right by his son – Not a chance to do right by me, ain’t no take backs on that!” she writes. “We done. Forever. Ever. Everrrr. Never everrr. Again. No. Nope. F— no.”
