Iggy Azalea came guns blazing (literally) in the music video for her comeback single ‘Money Come‘ –  the first taste of new music she’s planted on digital shelves since ending her brief stint in retirement following 2021’s ‘End of An Era‘ album.

The horn-laden cut’s sizzling Christian Breslauer-directed music video may depict Iggy and her crew performing a hostile corporate takeover, however, the song has yet to mimic said activity on the Billboard charts.

In an effort to remedy its nonperformance on the hitlist, Azalea bagged Big Boss Vette and Ivorian Doll to give the Tricky Stewart-produced bop a revamp.

Latto fights for her right to throw down and get down in the music video for her latest single ‘Issa Party.’

Directed by Shaq Gonzoe & James Rico, the colorful clip – filmed at Atlanta’s iconic Magic City strip club – acts as a playful take on the actual concept of ‘Party’ (which is more about getting even with rivals than it is celebrating).

“It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party, ayy (Okay) / I got shots for all the opps, it’s a holiday (Grr) / It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party, ayy (Okay) / We gon’ bring them sparklers out, time to celebrate (Ayy),” the GRAMMY nominee raps on the metaphor-laden cut produced by Pooh Beatz.

Released just moments after the BabyDrill-assisted song hit digital shelves, hop inside to see the official ‘Party’ visual.
