I understand that. But there's always someone in front of her. Time is ticking boo.

This will be the second time they won't do **** for her. I'm kinda glad they ain't releasing the album right now because they probably won't do anything for it. Is upsetting she has to wait a year after work came out to release it and I know it means a lot to her and now she has to wait Again because her label ain't pushing it and will wait to see if she "randomly" gets a hit.

If they wanted a quick hit that would probably have a lil success without pushing it, it was probably bounce.

Idk, ugh why are my faves always done wrong by their label.

Yea, well like Iggy said on that new interview we'll just have to trust them for the album release.

"Are you disappointed in them for deciding to do that instead of releasing The New Classic proper?
Yeah, it’s annoying because it just feels like there’s always something else that they have to do before it comes out and as far as the music, they love the music, and it’s done and it’s finished, and I am like, can you ****ing get it together, because what the ****? It’s fine, they seem to have some kind of grand master scheme planned that is going well. They seem to be happy with it, so being that I’ve never worked in a record label before, I guess I’m at their mercy to hope that they do know what they’re doing."

I bet she's also extremely frustrated, she tweeted earlier today: "I feel like releasing more music and it's annoying me that I can't. One year without a full project is ********." :/


And waittt...

#5 New Zealand

[Tsuko]

#5 in New Zealand? When did that happen? I think this will be Iggy's first top 10 hit in the UK too, it's doing really well on pre-orders.

^I think it got released there today, Australia on Oct 18 for some reason

[Jamie321]

I just assumed you guys meant the EP was #5. But the single?

Slay Iggy! How did it get so high so fast? All the preorders counted at once? So pleased!

[gio88]

still don't understand why they aren't releasing it in december , it's the BEST sales period of the year!in christmas time album sales increase a lot even 50 % or more!it's not a coincidence a lot of artist release their album between november and decmber like rihanna etc for example!i've seen singer not having either a top 40 hit but selling a lot of album copies in that period thanks to sales increase!

Yeah, the probably think they know what they're doing but the problem is march is a horrible month to release because sales are always so low. Oct, nov, dec is always good because they always get a boost because if Black Friday and holiday sales. But ok let's wait and see.

I'd like to see a statement from them and explain what the **** they're doing but..my question is who's delaying it?? Us label or uk label?? Seems like it was mercury this time right?

And jwhaiiwoaijanaksoosdj

U mean the single is #5??

I think Island Def Jam is delaying it...?

Dude. Hardly anyone is checking for her in the states. They would be idiots to drop the album soon.

Yeah, all the pre-orders get counted at once, but still #5 is very high. It gets released on Sunday in the UK, so hopefully the same happens here. I don't think it'll get #5 though, but hopefully top 10. It's now up to #4 in New Zealand. I could see it maybe getting to #2, but #1 is miles away.

1. Katy Perry - Roar
2. Katy Perry - Dark Horse
3. Ylvis - The Fox
4. Iggy Azalea - Change Your Life
5. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - White Walls
6. OneRepublic - Something I Need
7. Jason Derulo - Talk Dirty
8. Miley Cyrus - Wrecking Ball
9. Lorde - Team
10. Lorde - Royals

Dark Horse, Change Your Life, White Walls, Talk Dirty and Royals all in the top 10. Since when did New Zealand start stanning for urban-influenced music? lol

[~ joão.]

It's #123 in the UK on pre-orders now. Much higher than "Bounce" the week before the release I think!

I wish it would stay in the NZ top 10 for the week but it'll probably drop today/this weekend right? If she was still going on tour with Beyoncé in NZ and did some sort of promo she could have a hit there :/

I wonder what type of support/promotion is she getting in Australia (TV/radio I mean)

[MarryTheMonster]

WAIT the signed CD-single...lemme get this tbh

[Kryzz]

Hopefully this follows the usual pattern of smashing in oceania first, before coming a global SMASH.

On the music channels she gets a lot of plays. I saw Work a lot on MTV 'hottest' countdowns, saw Bounce a few times and I've already seen CYL 4-5 times in the last month. I don't even watch it that month but at least one or two channels support ha. Never heard her on the radio though.
