Iggy Azalea Addresses “Mo Bounce” Flopping & Leaked Tracks On Twitter
Iggy Azalea is still the realest. The Australia rapper, who is releasing a new single called “Switch” next Friday (May 19), made a rare appearance on Twitter last week and addressed topics that most artists avoid at all costs. Say what you like about the hitmaker, but she’s honest. Like when she casually answered questions about “Mo Bounce” flopping. “[It] isn’t even charting,” the 26-year-old responded to a cheeky fan. “Just doing what I love and you can join in or not.” Iggy also refuses to dismiss it as a buzz track.
“I think so,” the rapper replied when a fan asked if “Mo Bounce” was an official single. “It was more something that would’ve been great if it had taken off… but no pressure, the focus for Def Jam was always Switch.” She didn’t blame the label either. “We both agreed it would be cool to put out songs & slowly gain back my momentum. We felt Cant Lose & Mo Bounce covered the spectrum well.” I-G-G-Y then spoke about those pesky leaked tracks. “It’s unfair to expect me to leak someone’s beat that hasn’t been paid for, that’s bad business. I couldn’t do that to the producers I work with.”
It wasn’t all doom and gloom. The “Fancy” chart-topper is clearly jazzed about “Switch” and raved about her Brazilian collaborator, Anitta. Iggy also revealed that she’s still close with Demi Lovato and still hangs out with T.I. when he’s in LA. Oh, and the Aussie bombshell is definitely down to reunite with Britney Spears and Charli XCX. Other potential collaborators include Kesha and Fifth Harmony vocalist Dinah Jane.

@sighzach i worked with drugz for my album – not a free mixtape, so there is an expectation of payment. other people have other agreements.

The Anitta connection:
@leonardxsuxx she is involved with my management here in america and they showed me her live shows on youtube!

@neryperez_ she sings in english on switch. she is really interested in doing music in both languages which it think is cool.

Theme of album:
@IGGTAL37 the theme is about you being distorted via peoples perception, its not literal although i like to sometimes play with it that way!
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
Cool with T.I.:
@WTFISAMILLION @Adrxsousa i saw him over Christmas when he was in town, i see him a few times a year.

She’s blackballed from events:
@lggysBae i dont think any antics like that would help me – im black balled from plenty as it is. lol.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
She’s realistic:
@TeamOfIggy it really depends on a projects success, so who knows!

A Britney reunion isn’t out of the question:
@Bitch_barmy when a legend calls you dont say no.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
Those Kesha rumors:
@iggzdistortion @amehtyst @FLavinotoro @Kesha i havent collaborated with her yet but we have sent ideas back and fourth. one day!
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
Those Dinah Jane rumors:
@wesfancy no, but i would. we have met a few times via mutual friends.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
She’s not beefing with anyone:
@SaltyMusicStan im not too worried about stan war type stuff, but i've always made my support of other female rappers clear from my very first mixtape.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
A Charli XCX reunion could happen:
@fromtheflop @wesfancy i think we will collaborate in future but its hard when you have a huge hit because its difficult to top it!
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
There’s no Nick Young diss track:
@iggzdistortion @nphucas girl no! i dont want any songs about exes etc on my album. thats best left in the past. its not my vibe.
— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) May 3, 2017
Intriguing:
