After splitting from Island, Iggy Azalea got a fresh start late last year when she announced a new partnership with Empire. With high anticipation Azalea has finally started the rollout for her long-awaited sophomore album by releasing the first track from it, “Sally Walker.” The Aussie rapper has been teasing the new track since late February and dropped the sassy new hip-hop number in full at midnight. Co-written with J. White Did It, “Sally Walker” will appear on Iggy’s next studio album, “In My Defense”, the followup to her 2013 album “The New Classic” which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. After a blockbuster start to her career, Iggy encountered some push backs from Def Jam, her initial label, Later, she shifted affiliation within the Universal Music Group family and teamed up with Island Records. It resulted in the 2018 record Surviving the Summer, which had a lukewarm reception but had a sad ending with her Bad Girls Tour scrapped.
Now revived and ready to roll again, Iggy Azalea brings forth the fierce stylings of “Sally Walker”.
