Unstoppable.
Though seeing her credibility as a rapper dented by talk of ghost written songs, one would have to be a little crazy to deny Iggy Azalea‘s flawless rise from industry new girl to Pop power player in the last year.
Put simply, she’s unstoppable.
For, while unlikely to ever be celebrated as a groundbreaking rapper, plans made by her camp to turn her into a household name through fashion and TV will see her become quite the force in the months to follow, silencing any who believed remarks like these would hinder her chances of becoming the superstar she is today.
Now, after her new single ‘Black Widow’ heads towards the ‘Billboard Hot 100‘ #1 spot, a video shot by the entertainer years ago has been unearthed by her fans today, dug up as her #1 single ‘Fancy’ heads towards US sales of 4 million units!
A ‘Blackout’-inspired Iggy below…
As horrendous as that was, we can’t but give kudos to Iggy and her growth since she shot the ‘Gimme More’ inspired clip above!
Sure it was an auto-tuned mess, however the unearthing of this video can only serve to prove that the rapper isn’t as manufactured as some believe that she is, clearly experimenting with a number of different sounds before finding the one she’s mastered today!

SCREAMING!!!!! What a mess. No one can ever convince me this chick hasn’t got a ghost writer
My respect for Nicki has skyrocketed 2bh.
Lmao how does this prove Iggy isn’t manufactured? I don’t get the write up
She clearly has always been pop and southern did hip hop once black men started liking white girls bc she knew there was a lane for it

you all just keep the shade rolling with this DATED video. I’m sure she could sing this live and not rely on her backup singers tho
If her backing track works (DWTS)
OMGGG I LOVE IT TBH!!!! VERY PF:RR!
Let’s f****** not.
EDMNika slays and that’s why people dragged her because she was TOO good about doing Pop. What I just saw Iggy do is wickity wack with a capital W.
She could never in her sad life
David better stan downe! This is all part of Igg’s journey and I love it.
Ok, this just confirms those ghostwriter stories.
Truthfully it doesn’t…… If she has a ghost writer who was writing her music before she blew up. “P****” “My World”,Slo etc. The only thing changed is her flow. Still the same “ok” lyrics with catchy hooks. And truthfully this could’ve been a decent song with better production.
David stop, you KNOW this s*** is horrible.
You know his ass helped to break her when PUY dropped so he’s only defending this so he doesn’t look stupid.
I was about to say, TGJ was the first blog to cover her so they’ve probably seen this video which is why they aren’t shocked by it.
Doubt it b****. I follow him on twitter and the Barbz kept tweeting him the link so he would post it. Check his tl. Too bad he didn’t talk s*** about her like you wanted.
“First things first I’m the realest?” where’s that “big” ass though? *sips tea with kermit”
LOL I’ve noticed that too.
its there tho? she most def had an ASS. she was skinnier overall tho
Meanwhile Nicki before she popped off
http://youtu.be/HRxeHrp_V3c
But she’s still rapping now though, I’m not a big fan but at least with Nicki she came into the industry as a rapper did some pop but STILL did rap songs while she was doing so.
That’s the whole point. I was doing a compare and contrast.
Damm
Nicki is TOP 5 greatest rapper alive. Not just female, I mean dudes too.
LOOOOOOOL
LOOOOOOOOL
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Oh my garsh. WHAT IN THE FLYING F*** is this?
I’m sorry but this has helped me to reevalute why I like Nicki. Look at ANY of her old videos and you will see that she’s always been a good rapper and talented. David needs to open his eyes and stop defending this wack s*** cos at the end of the day everybody can see Iggy is talentless.
Whatchu tawkin bout, David’s shade was FLAWLESS!. I guess it went over your head lol.
Stop, you WANT him to shade her but he didn’t b****.
Wait. If this was shot years before she popped off are we expected to believe she was around 16/17 here? Something doesn’t add up.
BIIIIIITTTTCHHH! CTFU DEAD! Ha kangaroo lovin ass was tryna take Britney’s spot first! Lol chile the label saw she was wack nd knew that if they made her a rapper she would stand out because she’s white! *Chants* “FIGHT THE POWER!”. This b**** was wrestling crocodiles “down unda” nd wanted the American dream. I mean is that even her real face or is it a mask from the movie “White Chicks”? I mean, shouldnt she be more tan from riding camels in the desert? This b**** a “hobknocka” . Ctfu naw but this s*** wack. Glad the label found her direction because she lost at this.
LMFAOOOO THIS HO SAID KANGAROO LOVIN ASS AND WRESTLING CROCODILES LMAOOOOOO RIDING CAMELS IN THE DESERT YOU A TRIP
Where’s her ass? Or was that still in the mail at the time?
This is bloody tragic. All this proves is that she’s never had any direction and started rapping cos she can’t sing for toffee.
And thats why she has features for her hooks. At least Nicki can carry a tune for her own hooks. B**** didnt know where to start her career, maybe I should do pop. Oh wait I’m not good at that something else. Whatever sticks.
The first I’ll ever say this that FINALLY now someone couldn’t top a Britney record……. That’s sad. Well, that was the past and this is now and she’s doing great things for herself, so kudos! We can probably say that Nicki inspired her to rap because during that time the female rap game was inactive until Nicki came.
Tinashe made the “Blur (Britney Cover)” hers! Just listen to this and in contrast to the original….3….2…..1

Correct Video:
http://youtu.be/ymtbY3S1Jpo
The curve in front of that girls big head is real. She make the Elephant Man feel like Niomi Campbell. She sound like Cassie too, who dafuk aiming to be Cassie’s understudy?
WOW YALL ARE GETTING REALLY TEDIOUS WITH EM RECYLED DRAGS
My respect for Azealia Banks has skyrocketed. At least she has always known who she is and wasn’t willing to sell out. She deserves so much more success TBH
http://youtu.be/nQOD8M6Okoc
She must of pissed someone the f*** off for them to put this out now.
OMG. We’ve been lied to all this time. She said she came to America to start her rap career but now we know that’s a monkeydoodle lie. She wanted to be Britney but failed so then saw Nicki pop so then started rapping. The only thing that saves this s*** is TGJ’s article which was nice about her this time.
No words.
THIS B**** GIVES ME BUCKWILD FROM FLAVOR OF LOVE! CTFU ACCENT N EVERYTHINGN. NEW YORK HAD THAT B**** SHOOK! CTFU YALL REMEMBER?
Yesss! I live for Becky!
David, my n****, you know I love you but you know you wrong for defending this s***. Homegirl couldn’t sing if her imported ass cheeks and payola deals depended on it.
“16 in the middle of miami.” What a piece of LIE! If she’s 24 now how old was she then? Unless she’s gonna admit she didn’t start rapping until 2011 she needs to explain why she looks that old for someone who says they’re that young.
NICKI ND IGGY CTFU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5mlVFRAoFQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Nicki dear, I’m sorry for dissing you. I really am.
Now what the f*** is this s***? Inspired by Pokerface I see.
Poke her face wasn’t even out at the time when she made this ho’e sit down!
Hold on a moment. Pokerface dropped in 2008 so you want us to believe that Iggy was around 17 when she did this? LMFAO! The lies are coming out today boy.
I thought it was actually pretty good. Nothing wrong with an artist trying on different hats if the outcome is decent. As far as credibility, anyone can write a rap, but it takes talent to deliver the words. Nobody’s saying anything original in rap music anyway.
Stop right there THOT! Don’t you dare generalize like that ever again. There are many rappers who are saying a lot of things in their music but I wouldn’t expect an Iggy “Only Rap Cos I Can’t Sing” Azalea stan to know that.
Britney could never.
…be as basic
FOR A WHITE GILR FROM down UNDER SHE CAN SPIT. END OF.
Gurl, I think you’re dense. Your head is dense. You’re thick.
Delusions of grandeur, this girl can’t rap even if her payola deals depended on it.
‘
Her rhymes are as weak as the FLOP Classic’s album sales, end of.
Well her ass definitely wasn’t as fat then as it is now…. *sips tea*
Every b**** wanted to be Britney, can’t blame her. Till this day I don’t know how this Iggy man happened. Please let her be a one hit wonder, then my faith in the American public will be restored.
Someone get Kylie Minogue’s sister OUTTA here.
Kylie minogue is not famous in the USA but she has sold over 70 million recorods and her career started in 1985. U better hope ur fave can last that long.
When will your fave butcher a song like this?
Rihanna? Katy?
The noise of it all.
Just like most songs today
I knew her ass was fake, It’s only a matter a time before the stans do a before and after pic of her ass like they did Nicki and spread it through twitter. *Sips tea and opens Adobe photoshop*
DAMN!! you that press?
She basically tried everything until something stuck lol. I’m not even dealing right now.
This shows that the chick was always aiming for a pop career.
Someone must have told her with her face she wasn’t gonna make it so she got some ass shots, developed a southern accent and started paying a ghost writer.
Huh, smh. I need to go swab my ears out after that tragedy.
Time to draggggggg ha fake ass on Twitter.
Also David,
You might want to buckle in. More and more of the truth about this girl is gonna come out and everyone remembers you broke her and stabbed for her.
I’m already seeing her name become a joke on most urban blogs, you’re one of the few left clinging to hope.
Stanned not stabbed
Girl why you think he’s being so nice about this. He knows he helped make her famous and feels stupid as f*** for going up for her now this s*** has come out.
#EggOnHisFace?
Thank you for being fair and honest TGJ. Iggy has grown up a lot since then and the haters are pressed that their faves were taking orders in Red Lobster when she was living it up in Miami.
Shows that this southern rapping is as fake as Nicki’s British accent. Funny, Nicki is Queens that put on a Brit accent and Iggy actually has a australian accent, but fakes a Black one while rapper.
Yeah but the difference is Nicki did her accents as part of an alter ego, I believe Iggy truly believes she’s from the south.
No b****. Nicki does the British accent for fashion and for comedic value. She doesn’t go around rapping in a British accent all day like Iggy does a Southern one. Iggy HAS to rap like she’s from NO or else nobody would give a damn.
Fancy slays but damn it hasn’t even sold over 5 million worldwide And it was #1 for 7 weeks even Problem sold more, that shows you some major payola was involved, maybe people aren’t hear for iggy as her team/media are trying to make is believe…. I mean it would explain why her album remains uncertified internationally after… How many months?
They only did payola in the US which is why the song didn’t slay or sell anywhere else.
Hey David, how does that crow taste?
He better hope Rita SLAYS or that’ll be two flops he helped.
Lool the kiis are too real. TGJ broke this chick and now are tryna defend her old s*** so they don’t look dumb. Stick to Onika guys, she’ll never let you down.
TGJ broke this chick, you must be DELUSIONAL lmao
You clearly aren’t a true Iggy stan if you don’t know that TGJ was the first blog to ever give her any kind of attention three years ago, they used to cover her like they do for Rita now and that helped her get attention on the other blogs which helped her get signed to Grand Hustle.
Ask any of her stans who stanned for her back in the day and they’ll tell you the same.
Beyonce really is the QUEEN OF POP after madonna. SHE IS 35 NEAR 20 YEARS in the game and HER ALBUM came out 7 months ago, sold 2 million and YET IT IS STILL AT TOP 40 ON ITUNES ( AS WE SPEAK ) and SELLING AT 15.99 not DISCOUNT NEEDED. WHEN WILL THE LESSORS?
oh, AND SHE DOES not get played on TOP 40 RADIO RO HAVE NUMBER 1 multi seller and yet NO OTHER FEMALE CAN OUTSELL HER ALBUMS.
very sad really,only in hip-hop these sh!t can happen.
No but really, how old is this b****?
Also how does one sound THAT bad even while autotuned? No wonder she chose rap, spoken word is all she had left.
Ok…… This was hot!!!!!
http://youtu.be/9BIINDAWXtg
Girl Bye.
Nobody knows who this man is in the UK! Never had a top 3 hit here! Why do they keep hyping her because of one song which mainly featured another artist? She trash, look how cheap them ratty extensions look in that video! Listen to You’re The One by Charli XCX such a contrast between talented and this payola w****!
At least Britney has unique vocal which made her the icon she is today, how could this h** try to imitate my queen!
Sorry Iggy I love u but I’mma say shxt straight. Have u guys noticed that fancy has been #1 for 7 weeks but hasn’t even sold over 4 million copies world wide yet after 6 months of its release. And have u guys noticed on how Black Widow is climbing up the charts realllly fast but hasn’t certified gold yet in USA. I feel like her and her team are using payola to make her songs a hit. And let’s face it fancy is only slaying in US not world wide.
Girrrrrl Bye.
That’s because she can only afford to pay for play in the US. Songs that are genuinely as big as Fancy sell all over the world not just in one place.
Her sings that flopped I’m the US did well over seas like Work, Bounce.
First things first I’m the realest!?! How? HOW! Receipts…nope, only the ones for her fake ass, fake accent, fake hit, fake lyrics. What a joke!
The irony of all the haters perched in this thread with their tired “fake!1” drags when pretty much EVERY artist is manufactured to a point. Some more than others, but still. Especially when half of the people commenting stan for someone who became the poster child of “selling-out” with her sophomore album.
And I wonder why I’ve never seen anyone calling her out for ghostwriting/surgery/payola, or even her accent before Fancy went #1.
Why you even defending Iggy, you don’t stan for her. Carry on Trolling!
When Nicki “sold out” she made good Pop music that she WROTE. Has Iggy ever sounded good of anything she wrote?
the legendary britney spears inspiring the basic b******
Queen Of Payola. BW is #19 on BB n only sold 100K. Fancy is only a hit in the US (because of the Clear Channel deal), most of her singles flopped n her album is flopping HARD. Ppl dont want her.
That’s when you know, you dragged somebody hard that they gotta hide their identity lol I literally incarnated a nlgga into a bltch nlgga lmao!
Still Butthurt huh @FutureCiara aka @DemLessors from that brutal drag on the Rita article? Let it stay that way. 😉
Guess who I’m laughing at…..

I want to know how you came to this miraculous conclusion that I’m FutureCiara? Even I’m not as big of a troll than that pressed h.o.e. Plus stanning for Ciara is pointless she gonna flop no matter what! Even this Tin girl has more hope. Only dragged because you came for Britney!
I wasn’t going to reply to you until I notice your pic because I’m literally done dragging the life out of a CiWareHouse stan. I don’t really like your profile pic. It’s highly disrespectful.
I’m So Fancy! Who Dat! Who Dat! I.G.G.Y! LMAO!
EXCEPT “DAVID” of GRAPE JUICE YOU KNOW AND I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THIS CAME FROM AND IT WAS FROM IGGY AZALEA FANS.
This message above was edited and changed and NOT by myself. WHY?
“First thing’s first/ I’m the realist…” =^>^= lol What a mess, and David STOP trying to sugarcoat this.
Who gave That Grape Juice rights to reproduce and distribute this video. Alieyah Adams is not the video owner according to print screens of twitter interactions demonstrating downloading using uRL downloader from a video on private protection mode which obviously failed. Yet Grape Juice redistributes this video. Agenda??
