Azaleans Unite: Why I Love Iggy

by Lauren Mooney

Australia to LA to my current favorite Google search.

 

Still from Azalea's "Pussy" video.

The internet has been purring about Izzy Azalea. Whenever she pops up on my friend’s Facebook feed, or someone gchats me a GIF of her swaying tresses – I sigh, “Damn that’s ghetto hot.” I admit I’m not an avid rap connoisseur. But I prize her style above her flow. Not just her sexy body, hair, lips, clothes, swagger, etc., but also the style of her arrangements, videos, demeanor.

I’m not even sure if the Kraeyshawn comparisons are worth responding to, but I think she’s already surpassed that 15-minutes-of- fame-whore-der. I mean first of all she has more than one sexy video. Also instead of (or maybe in addition to) blunts, this Aussie beauty swears she eats Vegemite sandwiches daily (they must all go to her bum.)

In recent news, she dined with the Def Jam family the other night (Rihanna included), which spurred rumors that she might be getting signed soon. Her first album is supposed to drop this year. Thankfully she has a free mixtape out right now, dubbed Ignorant Art. Bonus points if you get the Basquiat reference.

Well, watch and let me know what YOU think:
