Iggy Azalea
Work

Mercury

WE SAY

Iggy Azalea's first official UK release takes her from underground hero to serious crossover candidate. Following 2011's Ignorant Art Mixtape, Iggy went on to feature in last year's Steve Aoki hit Beat Down. Work is the Australian-via-Atlanta artist's first full release on Mercury Records, and is picking up some incredible heat online ahead of forthcoming debut album The New Classic (date tbc). 1.2 million hits in four days on YouTube, sharp production and a stunning image combine to unstoppable effect. In March the young rapper will hit the road with Nas on the European leg of his tour. As a headliner Iggy has already sold out tours in the US and Europe as 2013 shapes up to be Iggy's year. Video.

London gig: March 19 w/Nas, O2 Arena SE10
