Erykah Badu isn't a fan of Iggy Azalea -- and she doesn't mind if everyone knows it.

While hosting the Soul Train Awards on Nov. 29, the singer cracked jokes about how rappers aren't allowed to perform at the music awards show, which focused on soul music.

In a bit during her monologue, Badu pretended to field phone calls from rappers who wanted to be invited... including one particular Australian chart-topper.

"Iggy Azalea?" she joked. "You can come, because what you're doing is definitely not rap ... in fact, I'm gonna send an Uber for you right now."

Ouch.

She also joked about it later on Twitter, responding to a user who called her "garbage" for not supporting and celebrating other women.

Kill joy. https://t.co/V72i1zi0Xy— ErykahBadoula (@fatbellybella) November 30, 2015
