You Sure?: Iggy Azalea Announces Her Return To The Music Game

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Gary Gershoff / Getty Just when you thought you’d never have to hear from Iggy Azalea again, the controversial Atlanta “rapper” has announced she is no longer retired and ready to make the comeback that no one asked for (no shots). A year after saying she was walking away from her music career to pursue other career opportunities, Iggy took to Twitter yesterday to announce that she only took a step back from music because of the “negative energy” she got from the culture, “But what I’ve learned is that even when I’m minding my business, y’all gonna be negative AND nosey. So if I can’t have peace, neither can you. I’m coming back. Cry about it.” We guess she realized that there wasn’t too many lucrative opportunities for her out there like that. Though she...

Iggy Azalea Explores Multi-Genre Electronic Music Influences In Final Album: Listen

Iggy Azalea just gave her music career a send-off with her most experimental album yet. Last week, the “Fancy” rapper released her final album for the foreseeable future, aptly titled The End of an Era.  Despite the culmination of her music career, which yielded multiple chart-topping singles, the Australian hip-hop star didn’t play things safe on the way out. Azalea doubles down on house music and even branches into drum & bass on her new record.

You Care: Iggy Azalea Says She’s Putting Her Music On Hold

Iggy Azalea Slams Accusations Of ‘Blackfishing” In New Music Video: “ Who Cares? Let ‘Em Talk”

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Matt Jelonek / Getty If she raps with a blaccent and appears dark like a blackfish, then Iggy Azalea’s latest attention-grabbing antics must be problematic, right?  That’s what critics on Twitter are saying after the rapper appeared on social media debuting a shockingly darker appearance from her latest music video “I Am The Strip Club.” According to The Grio, the drama went down after the rapper released the new song and its accompanying video last Friday.  In the video, Azalea wears a long black lacefront wig with a deep bronze skin tone. The jarring hue change reaches beyond a sunkissed look that fair-skinned people may naturally achieve if tanning under the sun.   Immediately social media was in an uproar flooding the timeline with...

Iggy Azalea Reveals Bold DM Messages She Gets From Celebrities

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Matt Jelonek / Getty The culture might be ready and willing to move on from the presence of Iggy Azalea, but rappers and other celebrities seemingly still want to get more familiar with the “PAWG” of a rapper. Recently, the “Fancy” artist decided she had some extra time on her hands and took to social media to “expose” the countless DM messages she receives on the regular. Though she’s blocked out the names of the creepin’ individuals, we can clearly see that these accounts have millions of followers (only celebs have those kinds of numbers) and the messages are filled with praise, propositions, and a lowkey proposal. As the messages appear one after another, we can clearly see men (and probably women) offering to kiss Iggy’s butthole, a $15,000 offer for...
