Aussie hip-hop star Iggy Azalea is back with a hot new single "Team" off of her upcoming second album "Digital Distortion." With her new album due out later this year, the female rapper stopped by Good Morning America on Wednesday and revealed details about her new record, opened up about what she really thinks about all her critics, and even dished about her upcoming wedding to her NBA star fiancé Nick Young.
The 25-year-old "Black Widow" rapper seemed happy with the response that her new single "Team" has received. The lyric dance video received more than 7 million views in just four days since it was officially released. She's happy with the song's message, which fits into the overall theme of her new album, and explained what the album's title means.
"'Digital Distortion' is kind of touching on the sort of social media world that we live in, this world of technology where we can distort our own realities," Azalea explained. "It's a world of misinformation, good and bad. It's just kind of navigating that throughout the album."
Azalea referenced her many critics on social media, ranging from average music fans to hip-hop greats Snoop Dogg and Talib Kweli to pop star Britney Spears, whom Azalea collaborated with on last summer's flop "Pretty Girls." Last February, the "Fancy" rapper took a hiatus from social media to remove herself from all of the negativity.
"It's tough sometimes, but you got to think about the people that support you as well," she said. "I grew up loving Missy Elliot, Lil' Kim and Trina, so I'm lucky I have those women that I really idolize support me, so I get a little bit of comfort in that-knowing the people that I look up to kind of appreciate what I'm doing."
However, Azalea is focusing on the positives in her life, like the release of her sophomore album and her upcoming nuptials with Young. She gushed about how the L.A. Laker popped the question and opened up about how overwhelmed she feels planning her big ceremony.
"Wedding planning is a lot," Azalea said. "Anybody who's been married, I empathize with you. It's so much more than what you think it's gonna be, planning a giant event and wanting to appease your family and make sure all the moms are happy. My family are all Australian, I have to fly everyone out but we're enjoying it. I think we're trying to make our wedding cool and young and hip, so we're trying to figure out what to do."
