It takes a special kind of aplomb to hop on another rapper’s track. The courage needed is often dictated by the fame differential between the original and the newcomer: if both are equally famous, the second can feel free to step in, but better be swinging hard lest they look like a fool. If the freestyler is well below the other rapper’s radar, the pressure is off, and there is nothing to lose from putting a famous beat on your tape to build buzz. But when the second is just barely on the peripheral, jumping on another’s track can seem like a challenge.
One of the few female emcees who can match Nicki Minaj in precocity and fierce delivery, Iggy Azalea makes fine use of Minaj’s recent release on “Iggy In Moscow.” Azalea always sounds her best on aggressive, borderline abrasive tracks, whose loud, over-the-top presentation and fervent danceability plays well with her youthful energy. The outspoke Aussie uses her acid-spitting style to drop a few clever lines (“Had to address the nonsense/Here’s a postcard”), but her main accomplishment here is not getting buried under a busy track and the shadow of Minaj. While nothing groundbreaking, this important foray into the bad girl’s beats is a first step for Azalea, who we may be hearing a lot from shortly.

Iggy In Moscow Lyrics
Listen, I hope you’re listening
Dismissing my opposition
Good riddance to all you bitches
I’m finished with all you bitches
I’m cooking, I said I’m cooking
Fresh out the pot
Now you looking
I got you looking
You want my spot
I mean it’s one for the haters, one for the road
Literally, bitch!
I let her go
You ain’t got a name
I let you go
Whoop that trick – Hustle Flow
Do you really, really wanna go?
You take one, shit, I take 40 – Producer O.V.O
Think you know all about me like Wiki, ho?
All you do is Dream like you was Christina Mili
I’m sorry, Nicki, but these hoes disrespecting hard
Had to address the nonsense, here’s a postcard
Smell aroma
I kill these hoes
At least they’d know they’re not tricked out
Put beats in comas
Rhymes so sick
Words
You’re defeated before you speak it
Now deleted
End of your plan
In time you will all see
I’m so fresh, man
Your mouth frontin’ hey
It get tackled
Mac logo, bitch
Second home the Big Apple
Who want beef, ho?
I heard cattle
Bury bitches in the sand
I’m making sand castles
Very likely that I’ll reach a high, insane
So I hope you got a rain coat
Ready for this rain
Hang yourself
Stop
Let me get this cake
Better luck next time
Oh, its my time
You’re gonna feel my Rage
And leave, rake, leave – fall
Heel bottoms look like crime scene – Ball!
Red bottoms
Fans? Got ’em
Getting in these bitches ass, yeah – Sodom
I’m dope as a rapper on a millie
Bank account in a week, about a milli
George, book me for a million shows
New Classic. Take over. Straight beast mode
“Iggy In Moscow” receives a PAR
Rating:
P…Horrible
PA…Tolerable
PAR…Good
PARL…Kinda Great
PARLÉ… Classic
