Australian hip-hop star Iggy Azalea has delayed the release of her debut album.
‘The New Classic’ was originally planned for release this month, however, after clashes with touring commitments (she supports Beyonce on her venture Down Under), Iggy's management have decided to postpone the album until March 2014.
Speaking to Aussie site news.com.au, Azalea said:
“The official [release] date? Fucked if I know! It's done, it's so depressing to say this but it's the beginning of March, it's so far away but I just have to accept that. It was supposed to be October but obviously I'm going on tour with Beyoncé and they said I'm not allowed to put an album out while I'm on tour because I'll be trapped in Australia and I won't be able to do any TV appearances.
“I thought that's fair enough, that's three weeks, and then they said, 'You can't put an album out around Christmas time, that's a bad time' and I said, 'What about January?' [They said] 'Well nobody gets back off holidays and then it's the Brit Awards, you can't release an album, it's terrible for marketing', which brings me to February. The marketing team gets to control me unfortunately, I don't get to control that."
Though you’ve got almost half a year to wait for the LP to hit shelves, Azalea recently unveiled the music video for its third single Change Your Life, feat. T.I - you can check it out below!
