Despite rendering one of the most electrifying MTV VMAs performances of the last few years with her stage-blazing rendition of ‘Motivation’ at the award show’s 2019 edition, Normani has not been invited to repeat the feat at its forthcoming ceremony.

Slated to air September 12, fans of Camila Cabello, Shawn Mendes, Doja Cat, Lil Nas X, and Chloe Bailey have already gone wild at news their faves are set to take the stage.  Yet, the ‘Wild Side’ songstress – who to many was a shoo-in for inclusion on the performance roster – is still noticeably absent from the growing list.

Across mixtapes, EPs, and studio albums, the last 11 years have seen the name Iggy Azalea almost become synonymous with ‘critical acclaim.’

Lauded for her glossy music videos, undeniable bops, and little-engine-that-could hustle (before and after the endorsement of a major label), Azalea has managed to consistently defy industry odds despite a lack of support from radio and industry peers – a condition she’s not minced words over in interviews.

Yet, despite the fanfare, the Rap diva’s had the tallest hill to climb to see that success mirrored commercially.

After a string of nonperforming projects, her last musical hurrah came courtesy of the August 13-released ‘End of an Era’ – her third and reportedly final studio album.

Look inside to see how it fared.
