A australiana Iggy Azalea iniciou a pré-venda de seu álbum no dia 18 de Janeiro de 2019. O álbum em questão deveria ter sido lançado no final de 2018, mas por problemas técnicos, o material teve de ser adiado. Iggy afirmou que, de última hora, a tracklist havia sido alterada e ela precisava gravar novas faixas, sem falar de todo o trabalho de mudar o encarte. Por fim, o The New Classic saiu. Precedido de três singles, Bounce, Fancy com Charli XCX e Black Widow com Rita Ora, o álbum possui além dessas músicas, outras dez inéditas, totalizando treze! Na versão deluxe, outras duas faixas foram adicionadas. A rapper anunciou o nome do álbum, a data de lançamento e alguns outros detalhes a mais uma semana antes. O primeiro álbum de estúdio da artista conta, também, com parcerias com MØ, T.I., Jennifer Hudson e Ellie Goulding.
TRACK BY TRACK
Standard Edition:
01. Work
Work é a primeira faixa do álbum e uma das escritas por Iggy. A música é autobiográfica, tratando sobre a ética de trabalho da rapper. É uma canção derivada do snap music e do trap, com influências EDM, apresentado um ritmo duplo através de batidas obscuras para balada.
Letra:
Walk a mile in these Louboutins
But they don't wear these shits where I'm from
I'm not hating, I'm just telling you
I'm tryna let you know what the fuck that I've been through
Two feet in the red dirt, school skirt
Sugar cane, back lanes
Three jobs, took years to save
But I got a ticket on that plane
People got a lot to say
But don't know a thing about where I was made
Or how many floors that I had to scrub
Just to make it past where I am from
No money, no family
Sixteen in the middle of Miami
I've been up all night, tryna get that rich
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Milked the whole game twice, gotta get it how I live
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Now get this work
Working on my shit
You can hate it or love it
Hustle and the struggle is the only thing I'm trusting
Thorough bread in a mud brick before the budget
White chick on that Pac shit
My passion was ironic
And my dreams were uncommon
Guess I gone crazy, first deal changed me
Robbed blind, basically raped me
Rose through the bullshit like a Matador
Just made me madder and adamant to go at 'em
And even the score
So, I went harder
Studied the Carters 'till a deal was offered
Slept cold on the floor recording
At 4 in the morning
And now I'm passin' the bar like a lawyer
Immigrant, art ignorant
Ya ill intent was insurance for my benefit
Hate be inconsiderate
But the Industry took my innocence
Too late, now I'm in this bitch!
You don't know the half
This shit get real
Valley girls giving blowjobs for Louboutins
What you call that?
Head over heels?
No money, no family
Sixteen in the middle of Miami
I've been up all night, tryna get that rich
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Milked the whole game twice, gotta get it how I live
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Now get this work
Working on my shit
Pledge allegiance to the struggle
Ain't been easy
But cheers to Peezy for the weeks we lived out of duffle
Bags is all we had
Do anything for my momma, I love you
One day I'll pay you back for the sacrifice
That ya managed to muscle
Sixteen you sent me through customs so
All aboard my spaceship to Mercury
Turn first at the light that's in front me
'Cause every night I'mma do it like it's my last
This dream is all that I need
'Cause it's all that I ever had
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Working on my shit
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Working on my shit
02. New Bitch
New Bitch é a segunda faixa do álbum, predominantemente rap mas com traços de pop. É, talvez, uma das favoritas de Iggy.
Letra:
He got a house that's too big
Sits on a hill in the valley
Said he trying to move on with life
But he still wanna be a good daddy
So I sit in the ride cause I don't want us overlapping
Spendin' money on Mac, that's cute
I get checks from them in Paris
Better check my tax bracket
What you think was gonna happen
Naggin', now he's had it
And y'all fell off like Mad Men
These exes excessively hatin' on the next bitch
She's no housewife, just desperate
I know it's hard to let go but accept it
Cause the whole world is watchin'
And the paparazzi is flockin'
Cause we fly shit when we drop in
And we shut down your party
'His' and 'her' gold chains
Gold watches, everything
His old girl, she gon' hate
They gon' have something to say
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
[Interlude - Spoken]
She be the one that be like
"Hey, girl, what's up? You in town? "
Yes, I'm in town, kissing ---- on the face, and you know this
So just say it
It's always jealous broads wishing they was in my shoes
But I'm a debut, you a deja vu
Girl, you know the drill, I got a couple loose screws
Driving, riding, all black suits up
Up north in a coupe before I meet him with the crew
And what I do, it can't be compared
You well done and bitch I'm rare
So stop popping up unexpected
Stop sending threats and text messages
We too grown for this messy shit
This will be my last conversation
If you don't want no problems
Move yourself from the equation
Cause the whole world is watchin'
And the paparazzi is flockin'
Cause we fly shit when we drop in
And we shut down your party
'His' and 'her' gold chains
Gold watches, everything
His old girl, she gon' hate
They gon' have something to say
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
Tell your friends to tell their friends too
He got a new chick but it ain't you
I'm just saying, you know it's true
Cry a river and swim on through
I know you hoping we won't make it
Clyde and Bonnie, let the world chase us
Ride or die where the world takes us
If we end up poor or rich and famous
I'm all he needs and more chick
His home chick
His tour chick
His 4th finger, left hand chick
And all those people go 'Damn, chick'
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
03. Beg For It feat. MØ
Beg For It é a terceira música do The New Classic e a primeira a apresentar uma parceria (com a cantora MØ). A canção, cujo gênero predominante é pop, tem um refrão chiclete cantado pela artista em destaque MØ.
Letra:
I'mma make you beg
I'mma make you beg for it
I'mma make you beg
I'mma make you beg
Pulled up looking picture perfect, baby
High price, but I'm worth it, baby
Can't play with ya, I've been busy working, baby
Gettin' faded in the European swervin', ay
Look, describe Iggy ground breaking what the word is
Hit the stage, ass shaking like I'm nervous
When in New York got me parking right on Madison
This ain't no accident, I'm killing them on purpose
I-G-G-Y, think she just had to do it better
Ride with me, fly livin', there ain't nothin' to it
Am I waist slim ass fat you gotta have it
Get my bake on, cake long
That's automatic
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Pussy power, pay me by the hour
I need me a Braveheart, can't deal with a coward
I tell him if he ain't ballin', he should hit the showers
If I peek and you lucky, baby, this money ours
All yellow gold on me, like I'm Trinidad, James
Sittin' drop top wonder where the ceilings at
I know my old thang wanna bring the feeling back
But I got a new thang, baby, I ain't feeling that now
Iggy Iggy, Iggy can't you see?
That everybody wanna put their hands on me
See I be on this money while your man on me
And I need another hand with all these bands on me
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Get up out my face like who'd you think you are?
Talking all this trash like bla-di-bla-di-blah
Oe oh, na uh, Oe oh, na uh
Get up out my face like who'd you think you are?
Make me wanna laugh like ha-di-ha-di-ha
Oe oh, na uh, Oe oh, na uh
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Hooked boy I'm like a drug
If you want my love better smoke it up
Make you beg for it, I'mma make you beg for it
You can look boy, but don't you touch
If you want my love make me give a fuck
Make you beg for it, I'mma make you beg for it
04. Change Your Life feat. T.I.
A quarta canção do álbum traz uma parceria com outro rapper, T.I., fazendo com que seja uma clássica música de rap.
Letra:
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Yo, hustle gang homey, real talk, no bullshit
You used to dealing with basic bitches
Basic shit all the time
I'm a new classic, upgrade your status
From a standby to a frequent flyer
Pop out your past life
And I'll renovate your future
Then I integrate my genius shit
We purchasin' not perusing
Yeah, I love your hustle, baby
Just let me add a little bit of muscle, baby
Joint venture, we'll partner up until the shares are up
And I'll up your wages
On a private island, dolo
One across the Cono
Them broads before me was locals
Through customs accustom your wardrobe, damn
Stamped passports where they all pass ports
'Till the clocks fast forward
Then we got blue shores where they don't do chores
We just get chauffeured
Damn, this is the life
Exclusive shit with all access granted
In the country where the accents are grand
And they landing on top of foreign mansions
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
If you could listen more than you speak
I get you everything that you need
I'm talking 'bout red bottoms Lv
Even extensions plugs in your weave
I be blowing on strong weed when we ride
And everybody just lookin'
But ain't no nigga gon' holla
They like "nah shawty, she tooken"
I'mma get you up out that coffee shop
Pick you up and leave you marked where you wanna shop
And let me show you that watch you supposed to wear
Get up out that Honda Civic and get your ass in here
Tell your mom and dad you're straight
Don't worry 'bout it you got it
You fly over in coach and fly back in a jet
"Hustle Gang" got your chest
Ain't no time for no stress
We spend our winters in the summer of Australia
Eating crumpets with the sailors
On acres without the neighbors
We fast-forward four years more
We long way from piss-poor
And all the shit that we endure
I told you what you was in for so
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Once you go great, you never go good
You never go back, even if you could
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
You never go back, even if you could
Have you ever wished your life would change?
Woke up and you lived your dreams
Baby I could help you make that change
I could show you how to do this thing
Have you ever wished your life would change?
Woke up and you lived your dreams
Baby I could help you make that change
I can show ya, show ya (show ya, show ya)
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Once you go great, you never go good
You never go back, even if you could
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
You never go back, even if you could
Once you go great, you never go good
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life)
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life, life)

Letra:
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
This twisted cat and mouse game
Always starts the same
First we're both down to play
Then somehow you go astray
We went from nothing to something
Liking to loving
It was us against the world and now we're just fucking
It's like I loved you so much, now I just hate you
Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothing for us
Not a single place in between
By me believing what you say that you never mean
Like it will last forever, but now forever ain't as long
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be stuck singing this song
You were different from my last but now you got it mirrored
And as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer
You used to be thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, web that you weave
So baby, now rest in peace
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
(Black widow baby)
I'm gonna love you until it hurts
Just to get you
I'm doing whatever works
You ain't never met nobody
That's gonna do ya how I do ya
And I'll bring you to your knees
Praise Jesus, hallellujah!
I'mma make you beg for it
Plead for it
'Til you feel like you breathe for it
'Til you do any and everything for it
I want you to fiend for it
Wake up and dream for it
'Till it's got you gasping for air
And you lean forward
'Till they have a Cat scan to check on your mind
And it's nothing but me, on it (on it, on it)
Now it's me time, believe that
If it's yours and you want it
I want it, promise I need that
'Till I'm everywhere that you be at
I can't fall back, go quick
Cause this here is fatal attraction
So I take it all or I don't want shh
You used to be thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, web that you weave
So baby, now rest in peace
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
06. Impossible Is Nothing
É a sexta música do The New Classic, sem parcerias. A música tem uma letra forte que fala sobre continuar seguindo em frente sempre.
Letra:
Never quit until the clock stops
Never die out until your heart drops
Success will separate you from the have nots
And have all these haters at your neck like an ascot
You could do it too young world
I remember bring exactly like you young girl
But wait, you could do it too young man
See you'll be fine as long as on your own two you stand
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing
Got to hate not have a morning you'd love to obtain it
Your future is round the corner so close you can almost taste it
It get worse before its better, that storm you gone have to weather
Either be a busted pipe or a diamond due to this pressure
25 Hours, 8 days out the week
Focus, keep eyes open victory never sleeps
My prayers for you is that you hit all them goals you trynna reach
I even hope at one point you take it farther then me
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing
I shall never let them see me sweat
Promise to want for more till my very last breath
Promise to blaze a path and leave a trail for the next
And never sell out my soul for a number on a cheque
I shall never let them see me sweat
Promise to want for more till my very last breath
Promise to blaze a path and leave a trail for the next
Just promise me when I'm gone you won't forget
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing

Leia mais sobre Fancy aqui!
Letra:
First things first, I'm the realest (realest)
Drop this and let the whole world feel it (let 'em feel it)
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
I can hold you down, like I'm giving lessons in physics (right, right?)
You should want a bad bitch like this (huh?)
Drop it low and pick it up just like this (yeah)
Cup of Ace, cup of Goose, cup of Cris
High heels, something worth a half a ticket on my wrist (on my wrist)
Taking all the liquor straight, never chase that (never)
Rooftop like we bringing '88 back (what?)
Bring the hooks in, where the bass at?
Champagne spilling, you should taste that
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
I said baby, I do this, I thought that, you knew this
Can't stand no haters, and honest, the truth is
And my flow retarded, each beat dear, departed
Swagger on stupid, I can't shop at no department
Better get my money on time, if they not money, decline
And swear I meant that there so much that they give that line a rewind
So get my money on time, if they not money, decline
I just can't worry 'bout no haters, gotta stay on my grind
Now tell me, who that, who that? That do that, do that?
Put that paper over all, I thought you knew that, knew that
I be that I-G-G-Y, put my name in bold
I been working, I'm up in here with some change to throw
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
Trash the hotel, let's get drunk on the minibar
Make the phone call, feels so good getting what I want
Yeah, keep on turning it up
Chandelier swinging, we don't give a fuck
Film star, yeah I’m deluxe
Classic, expensive, you don't get to touch, aow!
Still stunting, how you love that?
Got the whole world asking how I does that
Hot girl, hands off, don't touch that
Look at it, I bet you wishing you could clutch that
That's just the way you like it, huh?
You so good, he's just wishing he could bite it, huh?
Never turn down nothing
Slayin' these hoes, gold trigger on the gun like
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
Who that, who that? I-G-G-Y
That do that, do that, I-G-G-Y
Who that, who that? I-G-G-Y
(Blow-oh-oh-oh)
08. Fuck Love
Descrito como "hino feminista" por alguns fãs, a música puramente de rap é a oitava no álbum.
Letra:
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
I'm already in love with myself
So in love with myself
I'm already in love with myself
Fuck love, give me diamonds
So you want a type of bitch that'll stay at home
But I'm too busy getting mine on
So the kinda girl you want
Boy you need to call tyrone
I don't need your help
I can take care of myself
I might get into the money
Baby, couldn't you tell
I'm much chillin in euro
Making a whole lotta euros
Yeah my money so plural
Honey that's what I do though
You can't break my heart
You can't take my pride
Oh no, that love shit, I won't do it
A hot ass mess
I'm way too blessed to be stressed
So I want no boyfriend
Just give me them checks
What if I'm a material girl?
Can't blame me I live in a material world
It's crazy, this much it should be making me hurl
Big baby, I know you want a taste of the pearl
It's my life, I'mma do who I want to
Do what I want to, and I don't want you
Alright, see my times gonna cost you
And all my love don't cost a thing
You can't break my heart
You can't take my pride
Oh no, that love shit, I won't do it
Fuck love, fuck love, fuck love
That love shit I won't do it
Fuck love, fuck love, fuck love
That love shit I won't do it
09. Trouble feat. Jennifer Hudson
A nona música do álbum traz um ritmo animado, misturando pop e rap, em parceria com a cantora Jennifer Hudson.
Letra:
Right
I shoulda known that you were bad news
From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos
'Cause most guys only want one thing
But I'm undecided, tryin' to figure out if that's you
Either way though, I think you're worth the test drive
'Cause I know you're so much better than the next guy
And a little trouble only makes for a good time
So all the normal red flags be a good sign
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
Opposites attract, I guess this is that
Good girl, bad guy, what a perfect match
And if we fuck you gon' wanna pay back tithes
When we finish you gon' feel like you was baptized
See baby now you fiendin' for a test drive
'Cause you don't wanna lose your ride to the next guy
And baby trouble only makes for a good time
So all the normal red flags be a good sign
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
I got it bad for him in the worst way
Dear Lord, how'd I get in this positioning
Should've never got involved in the first place
Second place never get the recognition, um
See what he doin' to me make me have to shout it out
Gotta hold on me and that's without a doubt
So clear now that he's trouble starter
But I ain't a saint neither and these ain't no still waters
Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet
Don't mean no thing to me
'Til you show me where it's at
Smells like trouble to me
Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet
Don't mean no thing to me
'Til you show me where it's at
Smells like trouble to me
I shoulda known that you were bad news
(Knew you were bad news)
From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos
(All of the tattoos)
I shoulda known that you were bad news
(Knew you were bad news)
But I'm undecided, tryin' to figure out if that's you
You're trouble to me
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
10. Goddess
Uma faixa empoderadora que remete aos clássicos raps.
Letra:
Ain't this what y'all need me for
You done pissed me off what is y'all leaving for
Oh, what? A white girl with a flow ain't been seen before
Bow down until your knees get sore, huh
Treat Neimans like a grocery store
Selfridges get the same rapport
Ask Bey' when we off on tour
Hopping out a fly whip screaming, "This ain't yours"
How famous can one get 'fore she get tired
One phone call that make all the money get wired, don't
Spit fire that'll burn down an empire
20 deep in the sprinter tryn the Benz tires
Wave hello when I breeze by ya
Make enough in ten months
I could live off or retire (woo)
But I just won’t quit
Tryna figure out which part of this you just don’t get, huh
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Goddess
Got it?
Same critics wondered if I had it in me
Now want me to play friendly
But how the hell you play friendly when the mention of my name
Could cause a media frenzy
The cameras flash everywhere, make it hard to miss me
Lately I been crazy 'til a psych will commit me
After any competition coming up against me
You think it’s anything better, then come convince me
Until then I’ll be leading the race
So bow down, put your knee to your face
While I make wine outta water, turn rappers into martyrs
Set it off whenever I-G-G in the place, uh
Young rapper, Goddess
Y'all a boring read like Rapper’s Digest
I could never see you fall like I skip through August
I’m thinkin' bout now would be the time to start this
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Put your hands to the sky
But only if you feel the vibe
They wanna bury me alive
But y'all know real gods never die
Put your hands to the sky
But only if you feel the vibe
They wanna bury me alive
But y'all know real gods never die
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Goddess
Got it?
11. Heavy Crown feat. Ellie Goulding
A décima primeira faixa do álbum, em parceria com Ellie Goulding. Com uma letra bem forte, Iggy confessou algumas horas após o lançamento que foi uma das mais divertidas de gravar, que Ellie Goulding era uma pessoa maravilhosa.
Letra:
Life been crazy, all advice has been to chill more
Ironic, I been livin' off what people down to kill for
And I find no comfort in numbers
Knowin' there's always a mill more
Fact was that cat dragged my pretty ass
Right on the top of that Billboard
And all of my folks who done
Been here from jump you the ones I'ma cover the bill for
And as I get ill more
We gon' triple the order of champagne and spill more
Let's handle the real score
Been wonderin' what the public got a feel for
So let's keep it real, y'all
You know I'm killing game soon as I step on the field, y'all
The top where I'm at now, there's no turning back now
I won't ever back down
They feel me like they givin' Iggy a pat-down
I needed a moment I found it
Lately I've been on my runnin' the town shit
Especially walkin' around with
This heavy crown
You can't always please the crowd
But I am still not bowing down
This heavy crown
It comes and goes around
And when it's time, I'll pass it proud
But bitch I got it now
So keep a cute, chick, and don't be hatin' on the new chick
Go back and check your stats
And bet they let you know I do's this
Glasses full of empty dependent unpoint of view chick
If you was mad before
I bet you hate me for this new shit
Maybe you should watch
What you've got coming out your two lips
Get cool with how I kick it or else you gon' get the boot, bitch
Iggy A-Z-A a. k. a. captain of the crew ship
Don't penny pinch I promise babe
I don't need your two cents
Get rid of the makeup let us see just who you is
But if you feel like that girl bless your heart
Go get it how you live
When you hear my name
You gotta know that she's something regal
I'm one of one ain't no sequels
I'm wearing
This heavy crown
You can't always please the crowd
But I am still not bowing down
This heavy crown
It comes and goes around
And when it's time, I'll pass it proud
But bitch I got it now
To everyone who said I'd never make
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
I got a dinner date with greatness
Iggy Iggy, ain't never been nothin' to play wit, hol' up
To everyone who said I'd never make
I'm at the top laughin' at you faces
I've been practising my patience
But I switch back quick if you play with
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken

Letra:
Make it bounce (repeat x3)
I don't wanna hurt ya
But I'm about to work ya
Watch your mouth drop real low
I'm turning you up
I'm burning the clutch
Full speed, both feet to the floor
Feet to the floor
DJ running it back once more
Time to party that's all I know
Grab somebody tell 'em baby, baby, baby let's go
Bounce, make it, make it bounce (x3)
Shake it, break it, make it bounce
Bounce, make it bounce (x3)
Shake it, break it, make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Iggy Iggy, gettin' 'em tipsy
Tippin' em broads, hundreds and fifties
Pullin' up, nascar, black car
Shittin' on everyone, sippin' whatever we feelin'
Real real good, hands to the ceiling
Dancin' we dizzy, we spinnin' we spinnin'
All about money, the night's never ending
We party till morning, tomorrow we kick it
Bounce, make it, make it bounce (x3)
Shake it, break it, make it bounce
Bounce, make it bounce (x3)
Shake it, break it, make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Let ya hair down and shake that shit
Shake that shit, shake that shit
Sweat it out, go nuts in this bitch
Dip it, spin it, and watchin' my hips
I see you watchin' my hips
Crazy, move your body like Swayze
Round and round, shake it, break it, make it bounce
It's a fucking celebration, go-go-go
Girl shake 'em down like you made it, get low-low-low
Then show the good like you're wasted, pow-pow-pow
And spray the crowd with amazement, fo' sho-sho-sho
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy (we go) (x3)
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy
Make it bounce (x3)
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Bounce, shake it, break it, make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Bounce, shake it, break it, make it bounce
13. Iggy SZN
A décima terceira e última faixa do The New Classic em sua versão standard. É uma canção bastante animada, mais puxada para o pop.
Letra:
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down, bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down, bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Every man needs some Azalea
You want it, you do what I tell ya
You play on my team and get a ring back
You don't, you gon' end up a failure
I look like a fantasy, your wifey mad at me
Just 'cause hubby is a fan of me, you understandin' me?
So skip the talkin', baby, we too busy ballin', baby
Pedal to the metal and my engine never stallin', baby
Bitches gon' hate, while the critics critique
I pay them no mind whenever they speak
What they make a year, I can make in a week
I know you can’t stand it, just get you a seat
See the sky be the limit when you dealin’ with me
I’m stuntin' this hard, and I ain’t even reached my peak
I just get money to spend it, let the cycle repeat
I’m feelin' like I got this world on my feet
Hm, Iggz
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
(Go, Iggy, go, Iggy
Go, Iggy, go, Iggy, go)
You ain’t down to make a purchase, tell me, what’s your purpose?
Go out and play somewhere, the grown folks busy workin'
Iggy independent with it, they know that for certain
You be on the internet, thirsty, prolly worse in person
Down payment for a car, I dropped that on a Birkin
You don’t sit in VIP ’cause you ain’t no important person
Money wrapped around my mind like a turban
Iggy got them pop titties but that ass on that urban
If I told you what I’m worth, you would throw up
So have my money on time 'fore I show up
I’m drinking PJ on a PJ in my PJs
Thinking money 25/8, no free days
If your girl dumb body, I recruit them
They ask me, "Who you do it for?", me say, "The youth, doe"
Damn right, I like the life I live
Who else you know that slay like Iggz
You little bitch
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Drop down on ’em, bring ’em back up
Iggy Igg in the building, call for backup
See, I don’t want nothing but them stacks
So if you see a bad bitch, point her out, where she at, doe?
Now clap, clap, clap, clap it on ’em
Now clap, clap, clap, clap it on ’em
So we don't wanna never turn down
So go ahead and get ratchet on
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Deluxe Edition:
14. We In This Bitch
Uma faixa presente apenas na versão deluxe do álbum que remete aos raps clássicos.
Letra:
Right, Iggy back, no playtime
I just gave y'all some break time to miss me
So stressed on what's next
My last little bit of success ain't even hit me
So keep it light on the advice
Look at us, we must be doing something right clearly
In convo I don't talk to too many
I just talk to the fans in the songs 'cause y'all feel me
Now let's reflect on what we left on New Classic
I overstepped what was expected, I blew past it
So best bet is respect my perspective
Or go get your sight checked for new glasses
The fact is you combine the stats with
The history I made, the message should be established
I guess what I'm explaining in laymen's
Is ain't nothin' about miss Azalea average
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Unpolished product of my environment
Tryna get the same type love and respect
Aas peers I be rhymin' with
But everything is so one-sided, divided and biased
That I can't get a fair judge panel not in the slightest bit
In light of this, I had to write a hit to get this type of chip
Ridin' dick won't get me nowhere and I ain't that type of chick
That's so unladylike 'specially knowin' they be like
"Iggy this and Iggy that" long as you say it, say it right
Right, they might be playin' but Iggy ain't
'Til Iggy faint, I just wanna fill this Iggy bank
See I emerged from the smoke without a smudge on me
So back up up off of me
Unless you got some love for me, right
Even with my back against the wall
I still don't know fear and won't shed a tear
'Cause when I think back, I've seen it all
And everything that ain't stopped me got me here so
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Look in my eyes and see what I see
You know that nothin' happenin' surprise me
It's like I seen this before
This is everything I was dreaming for
Relax your mind let ya conscious free
I got expensive taste and I ain't waiving the fee
It's like I seen this before
Life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed
Even with my back against the wall
I still don't know fear and won't shed a tear
'Cause when I think back, I've seen it all
And everything that ain't stopped me got me here so
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
13. Don't Need Y'all
Uma outra faixa presente somente na versão deluxe e que remete aos raps clássicos.
Letra:
I remember when it used to be simple
But all this cash it just complicates things
And all this money we into
It will drive you crazy but it only makes me go harder
Grow stronger and get tougher when the road get longer
Sometimes you gonna think that it's too much on ya
But think what I'd be doing if this wasn't going on
So I just keep pushing when I'm being pulled in every direction
Now I'm popping so the they watching every step of my progression
Sometimes fame like a curse latched to my blessing
On the road to the riches turning earth into heaven
Dear Lord, if you hear me, I don't need not a new friend near me
Cause I don't want none of that fake love
Cause how I'm looking at it, all of that be made up
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
Making each and every song like it might be my last one
But still making sure the cash come
Still ain't forgetting times when I didn't had none
Back against the wall feeling like I had to grab something this way
I took time and I figured it out
I'd rather deal with the stress than living without
Take a one way trip to the top one time
Let you have it for a minute, now I want mine
Same girl on the cover of the magazine
Was the one in the pain that you hadn't seen
Talking about no money, no family
16 In the middle of Miami
Same critics love me nowadays, couldn't stand me
Now we're talking about vmas and the grammy
But in due time turn nothing into something
So now I need money, put it all in this good
I know when I wasn't this big
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
And if you wasn't here when I was down
Then you won't be here when I'm up
Now the same one you looked over
Be the same one that blew up
Ain't it funny how this life thing works?
When you think it's finished is when it all begins
Go from doubts to having the thought it might work
It goes up and down then it starts again
When I reminisce sometimes I can't even keep a dry eye
But my how time flies by when you on top of the world sky high
I know when I wasn't this big
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway

A australiana Iggy Azalea iniciou a pré-venda de seu álbum no dia 18 de Janeiro de 2019.

Precedido de três singles, Bounce, Fancy com Charli XCX e Black Widow com Rita Ora, o álbum possui além dessas músicas, outras dez inéditas, totalizando treze! Na versão deluxe, outras duas faixas foram adicionadas. A rapper anunciou o nome do álbum, a data de lançamento e alguns outros detalhes a mais uma semana antes. O primeiro álbum de estúdio da artista conta, também, com parcerias com MØ, T.I., Jennifer Hudson e Ellie Goulding.
TRACK BY TRACK
Standard Edition:
01. Work
Work é a primeira faixa do álbum e uma das escritas por Iggy. A música é autobiográfica, tratando sobre a ética de trabalho da rapper. É uma canção derivada do snap music e do trap, com influências EDM, apresentado um ritmo duplo através de batidas obscuras para balada.
Letra:
Walk a mile in these Louboutins
But they don't wear these shits where I'm from
I'm not hating, I'm just telling you
I'm tryna let you know what the fuck that I've been through
Two feet in the red dirt, school skirt
Sugar cane, back lanes
Three jobs, took years to save
But I got a ticket on that plane
People got a lot to say
But don't know a thing about where I was made
Or how many floors that I had to scrub
Just to make it past where I am from
No money, no family
Sixteen in the middle of Miami
I've been up all night, tryna get that rich
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Milked the whole game twice, gotta get it how I live
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Now get this work
Working on my shit
You can hate it or love it
Hustle and the struggle is the only thing I'm trusting
Thorough bread in a mud brick before the budget
White chick on that Pac shit
My passion was ironic
And my dreams were uncommon
Guess I gone crazy, first deal changed me
Robbed blind, basically raped me
Rose through the bullshit like a Matador
Just made me madder and adamant to go at 'em
And even the score
So, I went harder
Studied the Carters 'till a deal was offered
Slept cold on the floor recording
At 4 in the morning
And now I'm passin' the bar like a lawyer
Immigrant, art ignorant
Ya ill intent was insurance for my benefit
Hate be inconsiderate
But the Industry took my innocence
Too late, now I'm in this bitch!
You don't know the half
This shit get real
Valley girls giving blowjobs for Louboutins
What you call that?
Head over heels?
No money, no family
Sixteen in the middle of Miami
I've been up all night, tryna get that rich
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Milked the whole game twice, gotta get it how I live
I've been work work work work working on my shit
Now get this work
Working on my shit
Pledge allegiance to the struggle
Ain't been easy
But cheers to Peezy for the weeks we lived out of duffle
Bags is all we had
Do anything for my momma, I love you
One day I'll pay you back for the sacrifice
That ya managed to muscle
Sixteen you sent me through customs so
All aboard my spaceship to Mercury
Turn first at the light that's in front me
'Cause every night I'mma do it like it's my last
This dream is all that I need
'Cause it's all that I ever had
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Working on my shit
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Now get this work
Working on my shit
02. New Bitch
New Bitch é a segunda faixa do álbum, predominantemente rap mas com traços de pop. É, talvez, uma das favoritas de Iggy.
Letra:
He got a house that's too big
Sits on a hill in the valley
Said he trying to move on with life
But he still wanna be a good daddy
So I sit in the ride cause I don't want us overlapping
Spendin' money on Mac, that's cute
I get checks from them in Paris
Better check my tax bracket
What you think was gonna happen
Naggin', now he's had it
And y'all fell off like Mad Men
These exes excessively hatin' on the next bitch
She's no housewife, just desperate
I know it's hard to let go but accept it
Cause the whole world is watchin'
And the paparazzi is flockin'
Cause we fly shit when we drop in
And we shut down your party
'His' and 'her' gold chains
Gold watches, everything
His old girl, she gon' hate
They gon' have something to say
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
[Interlude - Spoken]
She be the one that be like
"Hey, girl, what's up? You in town? "
Yes, I'm in town, kissing ---- on the face, and you know this
So just say it
It's always jealous broads wishing they was in my shoes
But I'm a debut, you a deja vu
Girl, you know the drill, I got a couple loose screws
Driving, riding, all black suits up
Up north in a coupe before I meet him with the crew
And what I do, it can't be compared
You well done and bitch I'm rare
So stop popping up unexpected
Stop sending threats and text messages
We too grown for this messy shit
This will be my last conversation
If you don't want no problems
Move yourself from the equation
Cause the whole world is watchin'
And the paparazzi is flockin'
Cause we fly shit when we drop in
And we shut down your party
'His' and 'her' gold chains
Gold watches, everything
His old girl, she gon' hate
They gon' have something to say
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
Tell your friends to tell their friends too
He got a new chick but it ain't you
I'm just saying, you know it's true
Cry a river and swim on through
I know you hoping we won't make it
Clyde and Bonnie, let the world chase us
Ride or die where the world takes us
If we end up poor or rich and famous
I'm all he needs and more chick
His home chick
His tour chick
His 4th finger, left hand chick
And all those people go 'Damn, chick'
When I hop out his new six
Fresh in some new shit
"Damn, she is too thick, who is this? "
Yeah I'm his new bitch
I'm his new bitch
And I'm spending his new cash
Few trips, new bags
Damn, she is too bad
Oh you mad?
That I'm his new bitch
Yeah, I'm his new bitch
03. Beg For It feat. MØ
Beg For It é a terceira música do The New Classic e a primeira a apresentar uma parceria (com a cantora MØ). A canção, cujo gênero predominante é pop, tem um refrão chiclete cantado pela artista em destaque MØ.
Letra:
I'mma make you beg
I'mma make you beg for it
I'mma make you beg
I'mma make you beg
Pulled up looking picture perfect, baby
High price, but I'm worth it, baby
Can't play with ya, I've been busy working, baby
Gettin' faded in the European swervin', ay
Look, describe Iggy ground breaking what the word is
Hit the stage, ass shaking like I'm nervous
When in New York got me parking right on Madison
This ain't no accident, I'm killing them on purpose
I-G-G-Y, think she just had to do it better
Ride with me, fly livin', there ain't nothin' to it
Am I waist slim ass fat you gotta have it
Get my bake on, cake long
That's automatic
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Pussy power, pay me by the hour
I need me a Braveheart, can't deal with a coward
I tell him if he ain't ballin', he should hit the showers
If I peek and you lucky, baby, this money ours
All yellow gold on me, like I'm Trinidad, James
Sittin' drop top wonder where the ceilings at
I know my old thang wanna bring the feeling back
But I got a new thang, baby, I ain't feeling that now
Iggy Iggy, Iggy can't you see?
That everybody wanna put their hands on me
See I be on this money while your man on me
And I need another hand with all these bands on me
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Get up out my face like who'd you think you are?
Talking all this trash like bla-di-bla-di-blah
Oe oh, na uh, Oe oh, na uh
Get up out my face like who'd you think you are?
Make me wanna laugh like ha-di-ha-di-ha
Oe oh, na uh, Oe oh, na uh
I know you like the way I turn it on
I'm out here with my friends
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
If you don't do this right, you're going home alone
I guess you'll have to beg
I'mma make you beg, I'mma make you beg for it
Hooked boy I'm like a drug
If you want my love better smoke it up
Make you beg for it, I'mma make you beg for it
You can look boy, but don't you touch
If you want my love make me give a fuck
Make you beg for it, I'mma make you beg for it
04. Change Your Life feat. T.I.
A quarta canção do álbum traz uma parceria com outro rapper, T.I., fazendo com que seja uma clássica música de rap.
Letra:
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Yo, hustle gang homey, real talk, no bullshit
You used to dealing with basic bitches
Basic shit all the time
I'm a new classic, upgrade your status
From a standby to a frequent flyer
Pop out your past life
And I'll renovate your future
Then I integrate my genius shit
We purchasin' not perusing
Yeah, I love your hustle, baby
Just let me add a little bit of muscle, baby
Joint venture, we'll partner up until the shares are up
And I'll up your wages
On a private island, dolo
One across the Cono
Them broads before me was locals
Through customs accustom your wardrobe, damn
Stamped passports where they all pass ports
'Till the clocks fast forward
Then we got blue shores where they don't do chores
We just get chauffeured
Damn, this is the life
Exclusive shit with all access granted
In the country where the accents are grand
And they landing on top of foreign mansions
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
If you could listen more than you speak
I get you everything that you need
I'm talking 'bout red bottoms Lv
Even extensions plugs in your weave
I be blowing on strong weed when we ride
And everybody just lookin'
But ain't no nigga gon' holla
They like "nah shawty, she tooken"
I'mma get you up out that coffee shop
Pick you up and leave you marked where you wanna shop
And let me show you that watch you supposed to wear
Get up out that Honda Civic and get your ass in here
Tell your mom and dad you're straight
Don't worry 'bout it you got it
You fly over in coach and fly back in a jet
"Hustle Gang" got your chest
Ain't no time for no stress
We spend our winters in the summer of Australia
Eating crumpets with the sailors
On acres without the neighbors
We fast-forward four years more
We long way from piss-poor
And all the shit that we endure
I told you what you was in for so
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Once you go great, you never go good
You never go back, even if you could
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
You never go back, even if you could
Have you ever wished your life would change?
Woke up and you lived your dreams
Baby I could help you make that change
I could show you how to do this thing
Have you ever wished your life would change?
Woke up and you lived your dreams
Baby I could help you make that change
I can show ya, show ya (show ya, show ya)
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life) [4x]
Once you go great, you never go good
You never go back, even if you could
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
You never go back, even if you could
Once you go great, you never go good
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life)
I'll show you my way, I got that good-good
I'mma change your life, I'mma change it
I'mma change your life (life, life)

Letra:
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
This twisted cat and mouse game
Always starts the same
First we're both down to play
Then somehow you go astray
We went from nothing to something
Liking to loving
It was us against the world and now we're just fucking
It's like I loved you so much, now I just hate you
Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothing for us
Not a single place in between
By me believing what you say that you never mean
Like it will last forever, but now forever ain't as long
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be stuck singing this song
You were different from my last but now you got it mirrored
And as it all plays out I see it couldn't be clearer
You used to be thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, web that you weave
So baby, now rest in peace
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
(Black widow baby)
I'm gonna love you until it hurts
Just to get you
I'm doing whatever works
You ain't never met nobody
That's gonna do ya how I do ya
And I'll bring you to your knees
Praise Jesus, hallellujah!
I'mma make you beg for it
Plead for it
'Til you feel like you breathe for it
'Til you do any and everything for it
I want you to fiend for it
Wake up and dream for it
'Till it's got you gasping for air
And you lean forward
'Till they have a Cat scan to check on your mind
And it's nothing but me, on it (on it, on it)
Now it's me time, believe that
If it's yours and you want it
I want it, promise I need that
'Till I'm everywhere that you be at
I can't fall back, go quick
Cause this here is fatal attraction
So I take it all or I don't want shh
You used to be thirsty for me
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, web that you weave
So baby, now rest in peace
I'm gonna love you until you hate me
And I'm gonna show you what's really crazy
You should've known better
Than to mess with me harder
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you like a black widow, baby
06. Impossible Is Nothing
É a sexta música do The New Classic, sem parcerias. A música tem uma letra forte que fala sobre continuar seguindo em frente sempre.
Letra:
Never quit until the clock stops
Never die out until your heart drops
Success will separate you from the have nots
And have all these haters at your neck like an ascot
You could do it too young world
I remember bring exactly like you young girl
But wait, you could do it too young man
See you'll be fine as long as on your own two you stand
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing
Got to hate not have a morning you'd love to obtain it
Your future is round the corner so close you can almost taste it
It get worse before its better, that storm you gone have to weather
Either be a busted pipe or a diamond due to this pressure
25 Hours, 8 days out the week
Focus, keep eyes open victory never sleeps
My prayers for you is that you hit all them goals you trynna reach
I even hope at one point you take it farther then me
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing
I shall never let them see me sweat
Promise to want for more till my very last breath
Promise to blaze a path and leave a trail for the next
And never sell out my soul for a number on a cheque
I shall never let them see me sweat
Promise to want for more till my very last breath
Promise to blaze a path and leave a trail for the next
Just promise me when I'm gone you won't forget
Keep on living, keep on breathing
Even when you don't believe it
Keep on climbing, keep on reaching
Even when this world can't see it
No impossible is nothing
Even when you don't believe it
Impossible is nothing
Even when this world can't see it
Impossible is nothing

Letra:
First things first, I'm the realest (realest)
Drop this and let the whole world feel it (let 'em feel it)
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
I can hold you down, like I'm giving lessons in physics (right, right?)
You should want a bad bitch like this (huh?)
Drop it low and pick it up just like this (yeah)
Cup of Ace, cup of Goose, cup of Cris
High heels, something worth a half a ticket on my wrist (on my wrist)
Taking all the liquor straight, never chase that (never)
Rooftop like we bringing '88 back (what?)
Bring the hooks in, where the bass at?
Champagne spilling, you should taste that
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
I said baby, I do this, I thought that, you knew this
Can't stand no haters, and honest, the truth is
And my flow retarded, each beat dear, departed
Swagger on stupid, I can't shop at no department
Better get my money on time, if they not money, decline
And swear I meant that there so much that they give that line a rewind
So get my money on time, if they not money, decline
I just can't worry 'bout no haters, gotta stay on my grind
Now tell me, who that, who that? That do that, do that?
Put that paper over all, I thought you knew that, knew that
I be that I-G-G-Y, put my name in bold
I been working, I'm up in here with some change to throw
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
Trash the hotel, let's get drunk on the minibar
Make the phone call, feels so good getting what I want
Yeah, keep on turning it up
Chandelier swinging, we don't give a fuck
Film star, yeah I’m deluxe
Classic, expensive, you don't get to touch, aow!
Still stunting, how you love that?
Got the whole world asking how I does that
Hot girl, hands off, don't touch that
Look at it, I bet you wishing you could clutch that
That's just the way you like it, huh?
You so good, he's just wishing he could bite it, huh?
Never turn down nothing
Slayin' these hoes, gold trigger on the gun like
I'm so fancy, you already know
I'm in the fast lane, from L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy, can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow-oh-oh-oh
Who that, who that? I-G-G-Y
That do that, do that, I-G-G-Y
Who that, who that? I-G-G-Y
(Blow-oh-oh-oh)
08. Fuck Love
Descrito como "hino feminista" por alguns fãs, a música puramente de rap é a oitava no álbum.
Letra:
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
Fuck love, give me diamonds
I'm already in love with myself
So in love with myself
I'm already in love with myself
Fuck love, give me diamonds
So you want a type of bitch that'll stay at home
But I'm too busy getting mine on
So the kinda girl you want
Boy you need to call tyrone
I don't need your help
I can take care of myself
I might get into the money
Baby, couldn't you tell
I'm much chillin in euro
Making a whole lotta euros
Yeah my money so plural
Honey that's what I do though
You can't break my heart
You can't take my pride
Oh no, that love shit, I won't do it
A hot ass mess
I'm way too blessed to be stressed
So I want no boyfriend
Just give me them checks
What if I'm a material girl?
Can't blame me I live in a material world
It's crazy, this much it should be making me hurl
Big baby, I know you want a taste of the pearl
It's my life, I'mma do who I want to
Do what I want to, and I don't want you
Alright, see my times gonna cost you
And all my love don't cost a thing
You can't break my heart
You can't take my pride
Oh no, that love shit, I won't do it
Fuck love, fuck love, fuck love
That love shit I won't do it
Fuck love, fuck love, fuck love
That love shit I won't do it
09. Trouble feat. Jennifer Hudson
A nona música do álbum traz um ritmo animado, misturando pop e rap, em parceria com a cantora Jennifer Hudson.
Letra:
Right
I shoulda known that you were bad news
From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos
'Cause most guys only want one thing
But I'm undecided, tryin' to figure out if that's you
Either way though, I think you're worth the test drive
'Cause I know you're so much better than the next guy
And a little trouble only makes for a good time
So all the normal red flags be a good sign
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
Opposites attract, I guess this is that
Good girl, bad guy, what a perfect match
And if we fuck you gon' wanna pay back tithes
When we finish you gon' feel like you was baptized
See baby now you fiendin' for a test drive
'Cause you don't wanna lose your ride to the next guy
And baby trouble only makes for a good time
So all the normal red flags be a good sign
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
I got it bad for him in the worst way
Dear Lord, how'd I get in this positioning
Should've never got involved in the first place
Second place never get the recognition, um
See what he doin' to me make me have to shout it out
Gotta hold on me and that's without a doubt
So clear now that he's trouble starter
But I ain't a saint neither and these ain't no still waters
Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet
Don't mean no thing to me
'Til you show me where it's at
Smells like trouble to me
Just 'cause all the girls are falling at your feet
Don't mean no thing to me
'Til you show me where it's at
Smells like trouble to me
I shoulda known that you were bad news
(Knew you were bad news)
From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos
(All of the tattoos)
I shoulda known that you were bad news
(Knew you were bad news)
But I'm undecided, tryin' to figure out if that's you
You're trouble to me
Don't you come here thinking you're balling
Oh no, ain't down for it
You seem like trouble to me
I can tell by the way that you lean
And the way that you kiss your teeth
And you turn up so fresh and clean
Smells like trouble to me
10. Goddess
Uma faixa empoderadora que remete aos clássicos raps.
Letra:
Ain't this what y'all need me for
You done pissed me off what is y'all leaving for
Oh, what? A white girl with a flow ain't been seen before
Bow down until your knees get sore, huh
Treat Neimans like a grocery store
Selfridges get the same rapport
Ask Bey' when we off on tour
Hopping out a fly whip screaming, "This ain't yours"
How famous can one get 'fore she get tired
One phone call that make all the money get wired, don't
Spit fire that'll burn down an empire
20 deep in the sprinter tryn the Benz tires
Wave hello when I breeze by ya
Make enough in ten months
I could live off or retire (woo)
But I just won’t quit
Tryna figure out which part of this you just don’t get, huh
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Goddess
Got it?
Same critics wondered if I had it in me
Now want me to play friendly
But how the hell you play friendly when the mention of my name
Could cause a media frenzy
The cameras flash everywhere, make it hard to miss me
Lately I been crazy 'til a psych will commit me
After any competition coming up against me
You think it’s anything better, then come convince me
Until then I’ll be leading the race
So bow down, put your knee to your face
While I make wine outta water, turn rappers into martyrs
Set it off whenever I-G-G in the place, uh
Young rapper, Goddess
Y'all a boring read like Rapper’s Digest
I could never see you fall like I skip through August
I’m thinkin' bout now would be the time to start this
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Put your hands to the sky
But only if you feel the vibe
They wanna bury me alive
But y'all know real gods never die
Put your hands to the sky
But only if you feel the vibe
They wanna bury me alive
But y'all know real gods never die
Lord, lemme know if you got this
Preaching about prophets
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
Bow down to a Goddess
It ain’t no one man can stop us
Bow down to a Goddess
Goddess
Got it?
11. Heavy Crown feat. Ellie Goulding
A décima primeira faixa do álbum, em parceria com Ellie Goulding. Com uma letra bem forte, Iggy confessou algumas horas após o lançamento que foi uma das mais divertidas de gravar, que Ellie Goulding era uma pessoa maravilhosa.
Letra:
Life been crazy, all advice has been to chill more
Ironic, I been livin' off what people down to kill for
And I find no comfort in numbers
Knowin' there's always a mill more
Fact was that cat dragged my pretty ass
Right on the top of that Billboard
And all of my folks who done
Been here from jump you the ones I'ma cover the bill for
And as I get ill more
We gon' triple the order of champagne and spill more
Let's handle the real score
Been wonderin' what the public got a feel for
So let's keep it real, y'all
You know I'm killing game soon as I step on the field, y'all
The top where I'm at now, there's no turning back now
I won't ever back down
They feel me like they givin' Iggy a pat-down
I needed a moment I found it
Lately I've been on my runnin' the town shit
Especially walkin' around with
This heavy crown
You can't always please the crowd
But I am still not bowing down
This heavy crown
It comes and goes around
And when it's time, I'll pass it proud
But bitch I got it now
So keep a cute, chick, and don't be hatin' on the new chick
Go back and check your stats
And bet they let you know I do's this
Glasses full of empty dependent unpoint of view chick
If you was mad before
I bet you hate me for this new shit
Maybe you should watch
What you've got coming out your two lips
Get cool with how I kick it or else you gon' get the boot, bitch
Iggy A-Z-A a. k. a. captain of the crew ship
Don't penny pinch I promise babe
I don't need your two cents
Get rid of the makeup let us see just who you is
But if you feel like that girl bless your heart
Go get it how you live
When you hear my name
You gotta know that she's something regal
I'm one of one ain't no sequels
I'm wearing
This heavy crown
You can't always please the crowd
But I am still not bowing down
This heavy crown
It comes and goes around
And when it's time, I'll pass it proud
But bitch I got it now
To everyone who said I'd never make
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
I got a dinner date with greatness
Iggy Iggy, ain't never been nothin' to play wit, hol' up
To everyone who said I'd never make
I'm at the top laughin' at you faces
I've been practising my patience
But I switch back quick if you play with
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken
This heavy crown
To everyone who said I'd never make it
This heavy crown
Oh, Lord, weren't you mistaken

Letra:
Make it bounce (repeat x3)
I don't wanna hurt ya
But I'm about to work ya

Full speed, both feet to the floor
Feet to the floor

Pullin' up, nascar, black car
Shittin' on everyone, sippin' whatever we feelin'
Real real good, hands to the ceiling
Dancin' we dizzy, we spinnin' we spinnin'
All about money, the night's never ending
We party till morning, tomorrow we kick it
Bounce, make it, make it bounce (x3)
Shake it, break it, make it bounce

Shake it, break it, make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)

Let ya hair down and shake that shit
Shake that shit, shake that shit
Sweat it out, go nuts in this bitch
Dip it, spin it, and watchin' my hips
I see you watchin' my hips
Crazy, move your body like Swayze
Round and round, shake it, break it, make it bounce
It's a fucking celebration, go-go-go
Girl shake 'em down like you made it, get low-low-low
Then show the good like you're wasted, pow-pow-pow
And spray the crowd with amazement, fo' sho-sho-sho
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy (we go) (x3)
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy
Make it bounce (x3)
Go nuts, hands up, get crazy
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Bounce, shake it, break it, make it bounce
Oh-oh-oh-oh (repeat)
Bounce, shake it, break it, make it bounce
13. Iggy SZN
A décima terceira e última faixa do The New Classic em sua versão standard. É uma canção bastante animada, mais puxada para o pop.
Letra:
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down, bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down, bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Every man needs some Azalea
You want it, you do what I tell ya
You play on my team and get a ring back
You don't, you gon' end up a failure
I look like a fantasy, your wifey mad at me
Just 'cause hubby is a fan of me, you understandin' me?
So skip the talkin', baby, we too busy ballin', baby
Pedal to the metal and my engine never stallin', baby
Bitches gon' hate, while the critics critique
I pay them no mind whenever they speak
What they make a year, I can make in a week
I know you can’t stand it, just get you a seat
See the sky be the limit when you dealin’ with me
I’m stuntin' this hard, and I ain’t even reached my peak
I just get money to spend it, let the cycle repeat
I’m feelin' like I got this world on my feet
Hm, Iggz
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
(Go, Iggy, go, Iggy
Go, Iggy, go, Iggy, go)
You ain’t down to make a purchase, tell me, what’s your purpose?
Go out and play somewhere, the grown folks busy workin'
Iggy independent with it, they know that for certain
You be on the internet, thirsty, prolly worse in person
Down payment for a car, I dropped that on a Birkin
You don’t sit in VIP ’cause you ain’t no important person
Money wrapped around my mind like a turban
Iggy got them pop titties but that ass on that urban
If I told you what I’m worth, you would throw up
So have my money on time 'fore I show up
I’m drinking PJ on a PJ in my PJs
Thinking money 25/8, no free days
If your girl dumb body, I recruit them
They ask me, "Who you do it for?", me say, "The youth, doe"
Damn right, I like the life I live
Who else you know that slay like Iggz
You little bitch
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Drop down on ’em, bring ’em back up
Iggy Igg in the building, call for backup
See, I don’t want nothing but them stacks
So if you see a bad bitch, point her out, where she at, doe?
Now clap, clap, clap, clap it on ’em
Now clap, clap, clap, clap it on ’em
So we don't wanna never turn down
So go ahead and get ratchet on
Everywhere I go, they say, "It’s Iggy Season"
'Til I get what I want, baby, I ain’t leavin’
Everytime I go out everybody wanna show out
I just see a girl in the mirror, told her, “You the reason”
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
Simmer down bitch, it’s Iggy Season
I ain’t worried ’bout shit, it’s Iggy Season
Bad bitches scream, "Yass!"
It’s Iggy Season
Deluxe Edition:
14. We In This Bitch
Uma faixa presente apenas na versão deluxe do álbum que remete aos raps clássicos.
Letra:
Right, Iggy back, no playtime
I just gave y'all some break time to miss me
So stressed on what's next
My last little bit of success ain't even hit me
So keep it light on the advice
Look at us, we must be doing something right clearly
In convo I don't talk to too many
I just talk to the fans in the songs 'cause y'all feel me
Now let's reflect on what we left on New Classic
I overstepped what was expected, I blew past it
So best bet is respect my perspective
Or go get your sight checked for new glasses
The fact is you combine the stats with
The history I made, the message should be established
I guess what I'm explaining in laymen's
Is ain't nothin' about miss Azalea average
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Unpolished product of my environment
Tryna get the same type love and respect
Aas peers I be rhymin' with
But everything is so one-sided, divided and biased
That I can't get a fair judge panel not in the slightest bit
In light of this, I had to write a hit to get this type of chip
Ridin' dick won't get me nowhere and I ain't that type of chick
That's so unladylike 'specially knowin' they be like
"Iggy this and Iggy that" long as you say it, say it right
Right, they might be playin' but Iggy ain't
'Til Iggy faint, I just wanna fill this Iggy bank
See I emerged from the smoke without a smudge on me
So back up up off of me
Unless you got some love for me, right
Even with my back against the wall
I still don't know fear and won't shed a tear
'Cause when I think back, I've seen it all
And everything that ain't stopped me got me here so
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Look in my eyes and see what I see
You know that nothin' happenin' surprise me
It's like I seen this before
This is everything I was dreaming for
Relax your mind let ya conscious free
I got expensive taste and I ain't waiving the fee
It's like I seen this before
Life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed and more
And more, life is now everything I dreamed
Even with my back against the wall
I still don't know fear and won't shed a tear
'Cause when I think back, I've seen it all
And everything that ain't stopped me got me here so
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
Now we in this bitch
Admit it get borin' with no me in this bitch
Now we in this bitch
What's a world with no I-G-G in this bitch?
13. Don't Need Y'all
Uma outra faixa presente somente na versão deluxe e que remete aos raps clássicos.
Letra:
I remember when it used to be simple
But all this cash it just complicates things
And all this money we into
It will drive you crazy but it only makes me go harder
Grow stronger and get tougher when the road get longer
Sometimes you gonna think that it's too much on ya
But think what I'd be doing if this wasn't going on
So I just keep pushing when I'm being pulled in every direction
Now I'm popping so the they watching every step of my progression
Sometimes fame like a curse latched to my blessing
On the road to the riches turning earth into heaven
Dear Lord, if you hear me, I don't need not a new friend near me
Cause I don't want none of that fake love
Cause how I'm looking at it, all of that be made up
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
Making each and every song like it might be my last one
But still making sure the cash come
Still ain't forgetting times when I didn't had none
Back against the wall feeling like I had to grab something this way
I took time and I figured it out
I'd rather deal with the stress than living without
Take a one way trip to the top one time
Let you have it for a minute, now I want mine
Same girl on the cover of the magazine
Was the one in the pain that you hadn't seen
Talking about no money, no family
16 In the middle of Miami
Same critics love me nowadays, couldn't stand me
Now we're talking about vmas and the grammy
But in due time turn nothing into something
So now I need money, put it all in this good
I know when I wasn't this big
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
And if you wasn't here when I was down
Then you won't be here when I'm up
Now the same one you looked over
Be the same one that blew up
Ain't it funny how this life thing works?
When you think it's finished is when it all begins
Go from doubts to having the thought it might work
It goes up and down then it starts again
When I reminisce sometimes I can't even keep a dry eye
But my how time flies by when you on top of the world sky high
I know when I wasn't this big
And now y'all wanna act like you helped me get here
Oh, now they love me but they let me try
Knocked me down but I'm strong
Did all this on my own
Ain't got no time for no new friends
So for now just leave me alone
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
I don't need y'all anyway
