Iggy Azalea‘s road to redemption hasn’t been smooth.
Last year’s ‘Team’ saw her declare she was the only one in her corner and, based on its sales, that certainly appeared to be the case.
This Spring’s follow-up ‘Mo Bounce’ struggled to bounce its way into the upper region of any chart either.
Hoping for better fortunes on her third swing of the bat, Azalea is readying new single ‘Switch’ for release on May 19th.
Before then though, she’s been opening up to fans about the underperformance of preceding effort and her plan moving forward.
Check this out…
@thatslifegia Mo Bounce isnt even charting. im def not concerned about money. just doing what i love and you can join in or not 🙂

@RiggyStan I think so, i was more something that wouldve been great if it had taken off… but no pressure, the focus for Def Jam was always switch.

@iKryse @sighzach we both agreed it would be cool to put out songs & slowly gain back my momentum. we felt cant loose & mo bounce covered the spectrum well.

Refreshing to see an artist keep it real about their predicament.
We do still wonder whether it’s all a little too late for her, but if history has taught anything it’s to never count anyone out.
‘Switch,’ Iggy’s new single, lands May 19th.
Iggy keeps it ALL THE WAY REAL…can’t wait to hear Switch!
Lol girl bye, how many hints do you need.
And where’s all her fake fans that were in here screaming that Mo Bounce was gonna end Nicki?
*crickets….
Barbz are so threatened at the thought of competition for their precious queen it’s a kii really.? S****** watch realness. Y’all best hope and pray she don’t fall off anytime soon. All her singles are Flopzville as I type. Maybe Nas can ghostwrite a hit for Nicki to earn her hip hop’s respect again.
It’s clear the girl has been black balled in the industry because Mo Bounce was supposed to take off
She was never gonna be an artist that had longevity like Nicki Minaj! The talent was never there and she never had a solid fanbase, most ppl supported her at the time wanted to see Nicki Minaj fail!
My support has nothing to do with Nicki…Nicki already has success…I support Iggy because I want to see her WIN, honey! *Kandi Burruss voice* lol
Another Stupid barb who believes in Nicki’s one size fits all mentality. Iggy fans are Nicki haters? There’s enough room, money, competition for everybody. This is the reason Nicki swine ass needs to go away. Lol
Its never too late for a white girl to succeed in America. Her songs are corny even the way she spells “Mo Bounce” mad corny. SHE WORKING WITH the wrong people. She need to network and be more active in things. Im pretty sure shr could have went to the met gala. I know she has the budget to do promo
And I’m sure she wouldn’t went..had she been invited.
“Last year’s ‘Team’ saw her declare she was the only one in her corner and, based on its sales, that certainly appeared to be the case.”
lol? it went Gold and has like almost 300 million streams overall on every platform and video…
At least she is being real. def jam seems to be f****** up as of lately with promotion of their artist. May be time to tap into film baby girl.
I’m here for Iggy Azealia her style is everything for me & I dig it!! Why do folks hate her? Her body is JUST AS FAKE AS Tricki Garbagh! So step off!!
Iggy still got a hit on her hands. I mean, how many flops Nicki released until one of them popped.
DANg, I actually thought Mo Bounce would heat up pop radio! Her next release has to be good and supported by a lot of payola.
