She’s the outspoken Rap sensation behind one of the year’s biggest singles.

We’re talking about Iggy Azalea of course, touching down on US soil with her debut album ‘The New Classic’ with the help of the aforementioned smash ‘Fancy‘ back in April, and its follow-up ‘Reclassified’ this November.

However, it would seem not even a #1 single and smash hits with Rita Ora, Jennifer Lopez and Ariana Grande were enough to convince the general public to her support her latest body of work this week, as it’s set to tank something vicious!

How vicious? 11,000 units, set to be sold by the release by the time next week’s ‘Billboard 200‘ chart is published, despite the benefit of the several Black Friday promotions its November release date armed it with.
