Iggy Azalea is a free agent. Officially.
And it seems the femcee is elated about it.
Details below…
Taking to Twitter moments ago, the ‘Kream’ rapper confirmed what we had reported last month – she’s been let go from her label Island/Universal.
It’s a move she says “she” lobbied for.

The news comes after a rocky three years for the Aussie bred beauty, who has been trying to get her career back on track after it was derailed by a number of social media spats and arguable overexposure.
During said window, she prepped an album that was scrapped, released solid singles which were marred by one mess after the other, and tried to set sail on a tour that never left the dock.
On Azalea’s end, she’s levied much of that blame at former label and the restrictions imposed on her more broadly by the major system. Hence, her public-facing excitement at her free agent status.
What the future holds for the femcee remains to be seen. But she’s referenced Tyga‘s approach to being indie and the success he’s achieved as admirable. Time will tell if she can follow-suit.
Well she’s said it’s what she wanted..
That was fast. Hopefully it works for her but I don’t see it happening. These artist like to talk about labels but you’ll see the quality of music and videos go down drastically when they start funding things out their pockets.
Iggy may not be selling but she’s blessed to still have good collabs, top producers and extremely good quality music videos for music that flops. Even some artist who selling can’t get a good budget.
She is wack. She should go work in a strip club cause her music career is done!
Hard work and perseverance will pay off honey
TROLLMine! You are not fooling anybody pretending to be ME. Is your shift at H&M over yet girl?
Woo chile, it’s not easy being an Iggy fan ? But I am! And I’mma ride until the wheels fall off! You WILL be #1 again! I’m putting that into the universe! I’m planting that seed! Pay attention to Cardi cause she’s making the kind of bass driven bops that you were successful with! Luh ya girl lol ❤️ ??
Love her
I hope this turns out really well for her
Go Iggy !
Wow that’s sad.
I dont think it’s a good move.

I wish she did interviews being more open about the unnecessary attack she got from the black community when she really came in humbled and acknowledged our past and current black artists that inspired her unlike other white rappers… from what I remember. The black community and the rise of Black Twitter in 2015 really painted her as a bad person.
All she needs is a hit and she’ll be back on Top again
I agree. It only takes one REALLY GREAT FIRE song and she’llbe up there. This move was a step in the right direction for her. As I understand, she only did this now as she herself said she’s in a financial position where she can comfortably be on her own. She has been already recording in the studio on her own dime for a number of months already.
? of RAP plain and simple
