Iggy Azalea is a four time Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum Australian
rapper who has become one of the most accomplished artists in history. Her
2014 debut album The New Classic, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Rap
Chart – a first for an international female artist, spawned a US chart
topping trifecta of worldwide #1 multi-platinum smash hits:
”Fancy” (featuring Charli XCX, 5×-platinum); “Black Widow” (featuring
Rita Ora, 4× platinum); “Problem” (collaboration with Ariana Grande,
6×-platinum). “Fancy” was the longest leading Hot 100 #1 hit by a female
rapper in chart history, Billboard’s 2014 Song of the Summer, iTunes Best
Song of 2014, the year’s most-streamed song on Spotify, and the most-watched
music video on Vevo. While “Fancy” was still residing at #1 on the Hot 100,
“Problem” – Iggy’s collab with Ariana Grande – peaked at #2. Iggy
had made chart history again, this time as the first artist since the Beatles to
rank at #1 and #2 simultaneously with their first two Hot 100 hits. Iggy
Azalea’s videos have amassed over 2.5 Billion combined views to date.
