Back in January, Rap sensation Iggy Azalea took to Twitter to announce that she had signed to Interscope Records, headed by Jimmy Iovine.
Going onto ink a deal with TI‘s ‘Grand Hustle’, the MC- by way of Twitter- led many to believe she was the proud owner of a joint deal between both groups, readying her debut album ‘The New Classic’ for this June.
However, in a shock twist, TI has revealed that Iggy is a free-agent and has not inked a deal with Interscope, despite earlier claims that she did.
Details below…
Speaking to Blu Thiam of Def Jam Records, the Rapper revealed:
Iggy is a free- agent.
This,following claims by sources over at RU who say a deal between Iggy and Jimmy never took place, throwing the song bird’s career into uncertain ground.
For, putting aside how ‘icky’ this looks on a PR tip, Azalea may find herself at TI’s mercy if she doesn’t pick up a deal anytime soon-forced to release her project under ‘Grand Hustle’, or placed on the back burner if he has no financial incentive to push her.
Either way, here’s hoping Iggy lands a deal soon and puts this confused mess behind her.
I don’t see it for her.
Who’s that girl ? :-/
I’ll ask you AGAIN T.I.
WHY, after SIX YEARS of them being signed to Grand Hustle, have you NOT given XTACI even a BUZZ SINGLE, while this random broad comin’ on board has gotten a SUPERPUSH from you?!
Well well well…
I couldn’t care less about the business side of music. The thing is that Iggy has been signed to Grand Hustle, so she’s making good moves. She’s not a YouTube/ mixtape artist anymore, she’s a signed artist. A deal with a more major and financially powerful label will come too, maybe after the release of her EP.
I wish the best of luck for her
IGGY WHO?
Nobody is checking for this wack wannabe rapper b**** and thats the truth
ITS AZEALIA BANKS TIME to shine and rise above and become THE TOP FEMALE RAPPER!!!!
Her ship is sinking fast.
Maybe T.I. now sees through iggy………………………
Her hips done lied.
Don’t care about Iggy. I’m worried about T.I. packing on them lbs. Good lawd lol
Lying already? Why should i be surprised…Guess somebody didn’t watch Brandy’s Behind The Music.
Maybe it fell through, I mean this could be good for grand hustle.
I feel T.I could really take her to new places.
She’s not the first… Didn’t Nicki Minaj lie also. You know her age and being bisexual
i dont know why but she reminde’s me of a giraffe….

I LUV ME SOME IGGY
she needs a label.. cuz banks is killing her
I was a huge fan of hers but her career has sinked the single has been out two months they bumped it in ATl for a week it vanished no video she was getting all this hype a few months ago then she just vanished all we see of her now is booty pics on Mediatakeout she gone become the white version of Trina without the urban hits and sales its clear TI thought he had found something and now she is a free agent but he signed her to Grand Hustle that is not a free agent so has she been dropped is that why the single has been pulled from radio and he no longer promotes it neither does she
I love Iggy but TIp played her saw that ass on youtube and in pics wanted to smash tricked her to Atl sold her a pipe dream then piped her down signed her to a single deal she so stupid did not read her contract he did the single with her now it s in the drain she still a free agent with no hit no nothing but TIp got the p**** ass and mouth BUT its something odd going on cause she was listed on interscope records roster …… on there site hmmm
Awww look at Tiny in the Background
Azaelea Banks did the 50 cent on this broad! She was done b4 she could even get started… poor girl…
@sweetdiva girl shut up there beef was not even that serious there was no diss tracks etc it was petty tweets from Azaelea
I told yall Iggy fans that yall were playing for the wrong team!
Funny how the HATERS are all on the comments though. Talking bad “I knew she wouldn’t make it, TI seen through her lies, She was done before she started” STFU! The b**** just got buzzworthy! Ya’ll act like the b**** put out an album and flopped!? I’m still rooting for this b**** cuz her ass can rhyme rather you, Azealia Banks, Eve, or you like it. And I wish the best for her. She has what it takes and I believe in her. So what if Interscope signed her & dropped her, never signed her, or WHATEVER! SOMEBODY smart will see her talent and take advantage of her! Just like NICK said in “Still I Rise” All those labels wouldn’t sign her. Now she’s with Young Money & I bet you they ass regret it. I give Iggy a few more months until I see wassup. I got faith in that b****!
One problem with her is she’s a fraud. Im sorry but her whole image as a hood chick is forced and unbelievable. Only suburban kids will believe that s***. TI didn’t market her right. She dont gotta be a trap rapper if that’s not her. Look at eminem, drake, and ninjas like that.
I din’t think she could rap but she got fans
Azelia banks or whatever, Im not onvinced with her either because she got a wrecked attitude and aint done s*** yet. Its one think to spit some trash talk on wax but to go at people like shes doing personally it shows shes feeling herself. Who wants to get involved with the drama she’lll probably bring.
