Its big budget video and insanely infectious hook makes Iggy Azalea‘s ‘Team’ one of 2016’s more exciting new releases.
Alas, that’s done little to stop the single from slipping and sliding its way out of the Billboard Hot 100.
Full story below…
Azalea’s new set ‘Digital Distortion’ is expected to find its way to retailers this summer, and fans had hoped ‘Team’ would rock and roll on the Billboard Hot 100 to support its commercial journey.
Unfortunately, it seems those hopes have been shattered after the cut slipped 29 places on the Billboard Hot 100 less than a fortnight after its release.
Its current position?
#71.
Marking her first single to be launched without a featured act since the release of her debut album ‘The New Classic‘, ‘Team’ followed the release of the buzz cut ‘A Zillion’, and much to the surprise of its supporters, is faring so poorly in the U.S. that not even the streaming figures its visual has garnered are enough to guarantee it won’t slip out of the tally in the weeks following this one.

Your thoughts?

Another #1 for Iggy. Poor Onika
Sad people rather listen to s** and bs than positive music
Good for her!
Her label execs told her not to release this because they know she can’t sell without singers. Now look. 29 place drop and it’s been out for two weeks.
Great news! I’m tired of these culture vampires trying to bank off the urban community! Wendy Williams called it last year and said Iggy will not last and it starting to happen now, the suburban kids are over you and your novelty of being a forgien white girl white black women’s body and fake accent has worn off! Stop appropriating black culture and go back to Austrailia!
Preach! Everyone loved Gwen and Fergie because they were authentic. Same goes for Pink. We know when it’s not real and the public has spoken.
Fergie authentic??? Bish, please!!! She is just another one who knows how to turn off and on that ghetto slang. She was in a group with a bunch of black men, acted hood around them, but then goes and marries a white man????????????????? Lol!!!!$ please!!
Oh no! I wonder why the GP aren’t here for her anymore. You know it’s bad when she can’t even slay with streams. Mess with the LGBT community and see how far you’ll get!
the song is tiring.
Bored of it already
not every single single released is going to be a huge hit or if it’s a specific Genre say Country is it going to be released to pop/adult contemporary airplay for example Faith Hill & Tim McGraw’s 1998 duet Just To Hear You Say That You Love Me peaked at #3 on what is now the Hot Country Songs Chart but was never released to top 40 or AC Radio though some AC stations/hosts played it anyway
No no. Don’t ever compare anything by Faith Hill to Iggy again. Iggy has the benefit of being cross promoted on radio and booking several televised performance spots. People see her content and don’t want to buy it. Simple as that
She is, and was, nothing more than a…
.
ONE HIT WONDER.
.
She’s lucky that she saw such success with “Fancy” (thanks to Gwent Stefani’s little sister: Charli XCX) but her fame was never meant to go beyond that. Perhaps she can another hit as an Ariana Grade feature or if she clings to Rihanna, Katy Perry or Taylor Swift. Sorry… 🙁
She’s had more than one hit, you f****** imbecile.
Not to kick her after she pulled herself down but who is shocked by this. She thought she had it made and forgot it was the urban blogs like TGJ who put her on in 2012. Once you lose them you lose its hard to keep your flops under wraps and retain the perception that you’re slaying. Look at Ciara. Most people think she’s doing moderately well because of the optimistic way she is reported on here. Urban girls need urban blogs even if those Urban girls are white and think white privilege will carry their careers.
I don’t think Nicki sabotaged anything. She too busy making her own paper! Iggy did this to herself! Her ignorance and bigotry towards gays, blacks, and Mexicans ruined her!!
And they know that they’re just joking ?
ITS ONLY ITS SECOND WEEK SHEESH GIVE HER A BREAK SHE LITERALLY JUST STARTED PROMO. IDK IF YALL REMEMBER OR NOT BUT IT TOOK FANCY 3 MONTHS TO POP OFF. ITS NOT ABOUT HOW U START ITS ABOUT HOW U FINISH
How do you expect her to make people care about a song which flopped AFTER its video came out and AFTER its been sent to radio. There’s s difference between a song which rises slowly because that indicates slow but promising growth. This isn’t the case with Iggy so she needs to move on to the next single.
Whelp. I’m sure she has something in the stash that will put her back on top. Good luck though.
I’m so happy
Lmao! As it should
Black people have no problem with people who want a piece of the culture. What we don’t like is when people don’t care enough about the culture. Black people love Jojo. We love Justin Timberlake. But iggy is trash.
“we” do NOT love TimberSnake.
i’m not a fan of hers like that, but i must admit,i do like this song.and i an’t happy she the song isn’t doing well, even if i didn’t like the song.she doing her thing Nicki doing her thing, no need for both of them path to cross.i’m a fan of Nicki and i an’t one of them running on here wishing for iggy down fall, i have no love are hate towards her.
Iggy is now exposed. Once everyone found out she was faking the funk her star power dimmed. You can’t steal from a culture, bash ethnic community’s with racist comments, fake an accent and expect not to get caugh up. People gravitate towards authenticity and Iggy is a product, not an artist. Sure Fancy was dope and she had “hits” but let’s be real, she has a “Team” of writers and a whole camp of other people that put her together. Furthermore the best part about fancy was the hook and it wasn’t even her singing it. We are in a new musical era where the people want real artists and if you’re faking it you will be called out. We want to be entertained not lied to. I was a fan of iggy when she was underground, before Fancy. Once I found out this “urban white girl” was an Australian Becky basically acting, she lost me. Nicki don’t even need to sabotage her she’s doing that all by herself.
The song tanked because it f****** sucks.
Just like all of Jackie’s singles.
What Jacike had singles released when..?
Sis call me when Team outpeaks I Bet. Goodbye ashy.
Worry about Nicki and BarberFLOP that nobody’s going to see, f**.
I knew it would do worse than pretty girls, nobody wants or uses her anymore. June 2014 is long gone and those glory days aren’t coming back
Iggy will be fine, i want Kingdom Come released ASAP.
She’s over deal with it, it’s had tons of promo already and it’s still flopping on iTunes
I really dgaf I’m still buying “Digital Distortion” When it drop!!
Her fans alreayd called it the song of the summer… just like Pretty Girls… BUT I don’t think her video views are counted yet.
She should do a remix or a part2
