Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists Album Review: Iggy Azalea – The New Classic Victoria Chater-Lea lends her ears to the new album by Iggy Azalea Sunday 4 May 2014 Australian-born Iggy Azalea recently dropped The New Classic on April 21st, just in time for summer. This pop-rapper hasn’t had it easy, making the transition to Florida at just 15, and using hard-earned savings to pursue her dream of a music career. Amethyst Amelia Kelly, now known as Iggy Azalea was obsessed with rap music since the age of 11, and started rapping at 14, with huge influence from 2Pac. Kelly was discovered by Perez Hilton on YouTube in 2011, and shortly afterwards released her first mixtape, Ignorant Art, partially produced by D.R.U.G.Z, and then released her first EP project, Glory, in 2012. Later that same year, Diplo produced Azalea’s ‘TrapGold’ electro-trap-hip-hop mixtape featuring big names such as Sleigh Bells, Juicy J and FKi. Iggy Azalea’s The New Classic is currently sat at No. 3 on Billboard’s Top 100 albums, and is projected to sit in the top 10 for a few more weeks. The New Classic isn’t just an album, it’s a story of Iggy Azalea’s ascent to fame. Most memorably, ‘Work’ gives the listeners an insight into the move across the Pacific Ocean. First released ahead of the album, ‘Work’ reached No. 17 in the UK charts in 2013, with its catchy, yet clever rap lyrical-genius. ‘Fancy’ featuring Charli XCX, attained 5th position in the UK charts, and 7th in the US charts, showcasing Azalea’s tough exterior. Sadly Charli XCX appears to steal the song, with her captivating vocals during the chorus. The music video pays tribute to Clueless, possibly fundamental during their childhood. ‘Fancy’ mirrors the move to the hi-life of the States, during which lyrics such as “Classic, expensive, you don’t get to touch” appear. The New Classic unquestionably represents Azalea’s adoration of hip-hop, especially in ‘Change Your Life’ during her collaboration with T.I., previously dubbed as ‘King of the South’. The release of this song could arguably be seen as Iggy’s breakthrough tune, with a consistent bassy beat. Personally, my favourite is ‘Black Widow’ which features British-bred Rita Ora. This track incorporates an easy-listening vibe, which is ideal for playing over the radio Iggy Azalea definitely is appreciated more in the UK, than across the pond where Kelly is trying to reach the stars. Iggy Azalea appears to have suffered a slight loss of identity during album production, reflecting the move away from her Australian roots, towards a more Americanised sound. Produced by Diplo, and http://nouse.co.uk/2014/05/04/album-review-iggy-azalea-the-new-classic Archived 11 Dec 2018 07:58:05 Nouse Web Archives Album Review: Iggy Azalea – The New Classic Page 2 of 3 signed on with Def Jam Records, Iggy Azalea certainly has built up a large fan-base, which is exposed in recent sale success. Overall, I’d give this album a 4/5, with its catchy lyrics, and clear rap-hip-hop style. 2 comments I-GG-Y 23 May ’14 at 12:50 pm First thing first, I’m the realest. ‘captivating vocals during the chorus’ ahahahahahahahahahahahaaa! ‘reflecting the move away from her Australian roots’ : She raps with a southern American accent and her musical inspiration comes from American rappers. Where are these Australian roots? ‘clear rap-hip-hop style’ So you are giving her marks for writing music that you can clearly identify as rap music? Gosh. Diplo didn’t produce this album has had a small affect on Iggy’s career. Next time, peruse Wikipedia before reviewing. Report So fancy 23 May ’14 at 5:35 pm Sassssss Report Most Read Discussed 1.

  • Session Abstracts for 2013 HSS Meeting
    Session Abstracts for 2013 HSS Meeting Sessions are sorted alphabetically by session title. Only organized sessions have a session abstract. Title: 100 Years of ISIS - 100 Years of History of Greek Science Abstract: However symbolic they may be, the years 1913-2013 correspond to a dramatic transformation in the approach to the history of ancient science, particularly Greek science. Whereas in the early 20th century, the Danish historian of sciences Johan Ludvig Heiberg (1854-1928) was publishing the second edition of Archimedes’ works, in the early 21st century the study of Archimedes' contribution has been dramatically transformed thanks to the technological analysis of the famous palimpsest. This session will explore the historiography of Greek science broadly understood during the 20th century, including the impact of science and technology applied to ancient documents and texts. This session will be in the form of an open workshop starting with three short papers (each focusing on a segment of the period of time under consideration, Antiquity, Byzantium, Post-Byzantine period) aiming at generating a discussion. It is expected that the report of the discussion will lead to the publication of a paper surveying the historiography of Greek science during the 20th century. Title: Acid Rain Acid Science Acid Debates Abstract: The debate about the nature and effect of airborne acid rain became a formative environmental debate in the 1970s, particularly in North America and northern Europe. Based on the scientific, political, and social views of the observers, which rationality and whose knowledge one should trust in determining facts became an issue. The papers in this session discuss why scientists from different countries and socio-political backgrounds came to different conclusions about the extent of acidification.

  • Adidas Originals Unite All Originals Press
    Very few DJs can jump from club sets to high-profile festival performances, to Kanye West’s larger- than-life stadium shows with ease. In today’s DJ culture, A-Trak holds a truly unique place. He and partner Nick Catchdubs founded America’s most trendsetting new label, Fool’s Gold, launching the careers of artists such as Kid Sister and Kid Cudi. Fool’s Gold’s mission to merge all aspects of club music was already outlined in Trizzy’s original mixtape manifesto, Dirty South Dance, which set the tone for his own production. He is now one of the most sought-after remixers in electronic music, and his remixes for the likes of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Boys Noize have become undeniable mainstays in DJ sets the world over. 2009 saw the release of two critically acclaimed DJ mixes, Infinity +1 and Fabriclive 45, as well as the birth of Duck Sauce, his collaboration with Armand Van Helden. The duo’s radio smash “aNYway” cemented itself as the dance anthem of the year, A-Trak’s first true chart- topper with two videos in international rotation and across-the-board support from Pete Tong to Busy P, David Guetta to 2manydjs. Duck Sauce’s 2010 follow up “Barbra Streisand” was even bigger, a whistling pop sensation that accumulated over 60 million YouTube views of its star-studded video while hitting platinum heights around the globe. They even covered it on X-Factor and Glee! Not bad for a kid whom many viewed as a 90’s turntablism prodigy.
