In many ways it seems that she’s an acquired taste, someone you listen to because you’ve become used to her. Iggy has a style that’s somewhat forceful and melodic all at the same time and then rough as can be when she gets into the rapping portion of the song. That being said it’s definitely something that moves forward of its own volition and doesn’t stop to pay attention to anyone that can’t keep up. But overall it becomes its own song though there are moments when it seems as though it might lead into a very familiar tune. James Grebey likens this song to a cross between Fancy and Black Widow and he does have kind of a point if you really listen closely. To be honest that’s the kind of remark that really rubs people the wrong way since it was a team effort, and as a result both artists need to show up when it comes time to take the blame, not just the praise. But when it was deemed to be anything but a hit Azalea reportedly threw Brittney under the bus so to speak by claiming that she had no control over what happened in the video and therefore couldn’t be blamed for how it was received. Pretty GirlsĪccording to Erin Strecker from Billboard this song drew a bit of flack from fans for not being one of the best that Azalea had to offer, though from a visual standpoint, and when coupled with the music it’s actually kind of amusing.
It doesn’t seem to take much for people to get up in arms against a musician. She’s been given a lot of support within the industry as well and at this point it would seem that her popularity is still holding steady if it’s not on the rise. Her fame and reputation haven’t taken such a huge hit however that she’s been deemed as the worst artist around, as many upon many people are willing to listen to her and still claim her as one of their favorites. As ignorant and insane as this sounds it’s still managed to taint her career just enough to make things a bit difficult throughout the last few years. There’s been a lot of things said about Iggy Azalea since she hit the music scene and sadly some of them focus on her accent and her music when she’s singing, as some have claimed that the accent she uses to rap with is another version of blackface.
