Hustle Gang’s Iggy Azalea is keeping her mind on the music and celebrated her 2014 debut album The New Classic hitting platinum status this week.
Iggy boasted about her project’s success on Twitter last night (April 11).
A few weeks ago, Iggy updated fans on her relationship with Hustle Gang boss T.I.
“Me and T.I. are friends. He’s cool. People misconstrued that when he said he was taking a step back…It’s not that. We still do business together. I’m signed to his publishing company and that’s not gonna change. I love Tip. I know I can call Tip and he’ll get whatever it is I’m asking for.” (Real 92.3)
Recently, Iggy talked about needing some time away from her daily grind.
“I just feel I deserve a break. I’ve been going non-stop for the past two years, nearly every single day. I’m not in a bad place. I think sometimes when you say you need a mental break, people are like, “A mental break? Be sure you don’t have a breakdown because you’re sad.” No, not necessarily. It’s very emotionally draining to be on all the time and going all the time, planning all the time. It’s a lot, and it’s tough. I need a break from everything to just enjoy what I worked so hard for, and I don’t really feel like I’ve had a chance to do that. I need a break to figure out what I want my sound to progress to, and I need a break to figure out how I want my visuals to progress.” (Seventeen)
Last year, T.I. spoke on his close-knit relationship with Iggy.
“That’s still my partner,” T.I. said of Azalea, known for her hit song “Fancy.” “Her life has taken her in a different direction. My life is still as it was before. But Iggy is doing what she feels makes Iggy happy. That’s what she should do. We’re focused on making the next Iggy record and dodge the same adversities we faced last time.” (AP)
