Lorde took to Tumblr on Sunday to call out Complex for writing a negative review of Iggy Azalea’s debut album The New Classic while having her on as the cover for their November/October 2013 Issue.

“bugs me how publications like complex will profile interesting artists in order to sell copies/get clicks and then s*** on their records? it happens to me all the time- pitchfork and that ilk being like ”can we interview you?“ after totally taking the piss out of me in a review. have a stance on an artist and stick to it. don’t act like you respect them then throw them under the bus,” the singer wrote.

Iggy Azalea took it to Twitter Sunday night to defend Lorde’s remarks:
