So Iggy Azaelea

[girlsmiley]

I haven't really heard that much about her, apart from the fact that she ditched her old life in northern NSW when she was a teen for a go at a better life in America. Apparently she went for a holiday and never looked back. Good for her.

She and I have moving away from home at a young age in common, and I'm wondering if anyone here knows anything else about her.

Mullumbimby (her home town) is not that far from Byron Bay. A spot I've had my eye on for a while now.

What say you, GB?

Also, I could have sworn somebody started an I.A thread before, but the search function isn't working for me right now, so apologies if that's the case.

ETA - For all y'all who don't know. One of her songs that I like.

Haven't listened to her stuff beyond hearing "I'm So Fancy" on the radio.

There's a really hilarious Fancy parody out there "I'm So Pregnant".

Watched that video, and I think I was mesmerized by her ass. Wow.

I do know she's getting some shit for being a blonde white girl singing rap and "trying to be black." I wish stuff like that didn't even come into music at all. I'm not a rap fan, but I give props to anyone who does what they want and says Eff You to their naysayers.

Is that still a thing? I thought we got past that with Bix Beiderbecke, 80 years ago.

Just read all the shit slung and the assholes arguing back and forth in the comments under her youtube videos and you'll see what I mean.

The same douchebags probably love Led Zeppelin.

I'm not a fan of Fancy, even though it's popular, but Work...

I Work.

Eleven years later and it’s more loved now than it ever was back then. I love it when songs go full circle.

You’re welcome.

Bix is... was... and always will be cool.
Some things are simply eternal.
