“I wasn’t dropped by Interscope,” she said. “I’m still managed by [Interscope], but when T.I. came on board and it became a Grand Hustle thing. We were working on restructuring and we worked down to the final deal. There’s things that change when other people get involved. For me, I choose my involvement with Tip because that’s my family over other things, so I’m thankful that I have him and he can kinda get me out of that situation; now it’s just strictly Grand Hustle.”
Her statement was clarified by Interscope’s Vice President of Publicity, Yvette Gayle, who said: “Iggy decided not to sign with Interscope, but she is still managed by Interscope Management.”
Iggy then added: “This has been this way for about two months now.
Me or Interscope didn’t really feel it was necessary to speak on it because we have a great relationship still. Everyone in that building is my friend and there’s a mutual respect there and nobody wants to do anything that makes anyone feel uncomfortable about anything else. There’s no bad blood between me and Interscope of course, they still manage me. So they play a big part in my career; but I can’t sign something that I don’t feel, you know, is 100% right. So I did what was best for me and they did what was best for them business-wise.
“I’m not in a rush to sign anything with anyone,” she said, speaking on possible future deals. “I have some really great things coming up that you will see why and maybe it will make more sense why I chose what I’ve chosen. I can’t elaborate on them yet.
A source close to Ms. Azalea believes her signing to Atlantic (under which Grand Hustle is distributed) is “certainly possible”.
