During an appearance on “MTV’s Hip Hop POV,” Grand Hustle artist Iggy Azalea defended naming her upcoming album The New Classic.
“I think that people think of classic and they think of, like, a Nas record or a Jay-Z record or The Chronic,” said Azalea, who was criticized by the show’s panelists for her album title choice.
The panelists believed that Azalea’s title choice put undue pressure on the project to be a success.
“What makes something classic is when you hear it and you have that moment that is a time capsule, and you can remember what you were doing,” she added.
“When I say The New Classic, I just want to make records that give you that moment for fans that they can remember where they were when they heard it.”

The word clasic has been bastardized to the point that it has no meaning anymore, actually I kind of view it as a negative at this point
Whenever I hear a rapper say “My new album is a classic” I brace myself for something thats gonna suck
We need a new term to describe great records, these motherfuckers out here destroyed the term “Classic”

She should call it The Hard Flop
Just make a sextape already bitch no one care about your music you dumb whore…spread your legs and call it a day
LMAO, cosign my nig.
This gimmck ass trash bitch need to go somee where and lay on her back. You think you going make the game with your garbage GTFOH!
Y’all really think that a girl who’s first song called P_$$y doesn’t know that controversy attracts people? Y’all stay getting mind f_cked.
Yeah well lets see if it works for her, Ncki caused more controversy then she could handle this time and her sales have been lower then people expected
I think people are wising up to the trick
True that, but yeah only the suckers fall for that shit nowadays.
true both of you
Can’t believe Tip’s had Xtaci (a MUCH better female rap duo) on Grand Hustle for SIX YEARS and counting and never thinks to give ’em at least a PROMO single…meanwhile, this white chick’s only been “on” for less than six months and Tip’s giving her a SUPERPUSH?!
Will not be a classic.
The thing is, even with wack songs people can remember when they heard it. If that’s her interpretation of a classic, that deserves more discussion.
I knew her whole career was destined to be a flop from the very first song she put out so its funny how she wants her debut to be a classic lol
This chick is garbage, trying to find her own lane but you can tell the bitch aint gangsta. TI dont make you gangsta. Go to jail before you threaten to kill bitches
MTV should stick to reality shows. What were they thinking with this shit? A Hiphop version of The View?
