Iggy Azalea has called out Playboi Carti for his lack of presence in their son’s life, as Azalea claims she hasn’t seen or spoken with Carti in several months.
During an appearance on Amouranth’s Twitch channel, Azalea echoed past sentiments regarding Carti’s parenting when a fan posed a question about the pending release of Carti’s anticipated new album.
“Someone’s saying, ‘Tell Playboi Carti to drop,’” Iggy acknowledged while reading the stream’s comment section, swiftly noting her lack of communication with the Whole Lotta Red creator.

“I don’t speak to him, my love. We haven’t heard from that man in over like, six months,” she said, referencing their four-year-old son, Onyx.
“We don’t know where he is. Have no idea, have no association. You would have to tell somebody that speaks to him, wherever he is. We don’t know or care.”
This is not the first time that the “Fancy” rapper has opened up about the seeming lack of support she’s received from Playboi Carti regarding their son, who was born in 2020.

In 2023, Azalea deemed herself a “single mother” during an interview on the Dinner’s On Me podcast, which she consideres a “24/7″ responsibility. “I’m very much the only parent,” she said at the time. “No disrespect, but I am not co-parenting right now and that’s just the reality of it.”
In a seperate interview with Emily Ratajkowski’s, the 34-year-old also pointed to a tense encounter between herself and Carti that prompted her to leave their relationship, for good.
“It was just one of those moments where you’re just like, ‘I didn’t wake up thinking this is what my day would be,’” she said at the time. “But by the end of the day, I was on a plane to Los Angeles and I never went back.”

She continued, adding that her decision was spurred by wanting to create a wholesome environment for her son, due to her own experiences with volatility between her own parents.
“I was like, I will never let my son see this because I don’t want him to see someone talk to me this way too, but because I don’t want him to ever learn this, I don’t want him to be exposed to this.”
