Rap veteran Da Brat recently gave Nicki Minaj the edge over Iggy when asked about their hip-hop careers.

“I definitely feel like Nicki’s gonna have longevity. I’m not sure about Iggy. Right now she’s dope, but I’m not sure. I haven’t really heard her ‘spit-spit’, and ‘spit-spitting’ is coming back. Nicki spits.” (VLAD TV)
