Jennifer Lopez, Iggy Azalea collaboration in the works
By Nick Levine
Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming album is to feature a collaboration with white hot rapper Iggy Azalea.
Azalea, 23, currently has two singles in the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100 singles chart: her own hit Fancy and Problem, the Ariana Grande track that she features on.
Now she has teamed up with Lopez for a track on the latter’s new album A.K.A., which is due out next month (June).
“She actually only asked me about two weeks ago, so I didn’t have to keep the secret for too long,” Azalea recalled during an interview on Ryan Seacrest’s US radio show. “When I opened on tour for Beyoncé, I had to keep that under wraps for months, which really killed me. So this is a breeze.”
Azalea proceeded to heap praise on her latest collaborator, saying: “I love her. I definitely used to sit in my bedroom as a young girl and lip-sync Jennifer Lopez songs, so it’s very cool to have a song with her on her album.”
Lopez has recently revealed the fierce artwork for her new album A.K.A., which is set for release on June 17 – click here to see it.
