Iggy Azalea, The New Classic: riedizione dell’album (e duetto con Ellie Goulding)

Iggy Azalea ha annunciato ai suoi fan l’uscita della riedizione del suo ultimo album, The New Classic. Il disco è stato pubblicato ad aprile e adesso vedrà la luce in una nuova versione che contiene sei brani inediti. Lo ho confermato la stessa Iggy via Twitter, dopo aver rivelato di aver finito gli scatti per quella che sarà la cover della riedizione.

In uno dei nuovi pezzi ci sarà anche un duetto insieme ad Ellie Goulding (“Me and ellie goulding have a nice little numberrrr together on there too. FYI,”). Nella settimana della pubblicazione, The New Classic ha debuttato al terzo posto della Billboard 200. Per ora non si hanno ulteriori indiscrezioni né sulla data prevista per il rilascio del disco né per i titoli delle canzoni inedite presenti e altri eventuali collaborazioni oltre a quella già annunciata con l’artista inglese.

Uno degli ultimi singolo estratti è Black Widow che potete ascoltare in apertura post e vede il featuring di Rita Ora.

Black Widow, lyrics

[Hook — Rita Ora:]
I’m gonna love ya
Until you hate me
And I’m gonna show ya
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Than to mess with me, honey
I’m gonna love ya, I’m gonna love ya
Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

[Iggy Azalea:]
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 just fucking
It’s like I loved you so much and now I just hate you
Feeling stupid for all the time that I gave you
I wanted all or nothing for us ain’t no place in between
Might, might be me believing what you say that you never mean
Like it’ll 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
Now sing

[Pre-Hook — Rita Ora:]
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 (It’s all over with now)

[Hook — Rita Ora:]
I’m gonna love ya
Until you hate me (Right)
And I’m gonna show ya (Show ‘em what show ‘em what)
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Than to mess with me, honey (it’s all over with now)
I’m gonna love ya, I’m gonna love ya
Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

Black, black widow, baby

[Iggy Azalea:]
I’m gonna l-l-l-love you until it hurts
Just to get you I’m doing whatever works
You’ve never met nobody
That’ll do you how I do ya
That will bring you to your knees
Praise Jesus hallelujah
I’m-a make you beg for it, plead for it
Till you feel like you breathe for it
Till 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 for it
‘Till they have a CAT scan and check on your mind
And it’s nothing but me, on it (on it, on it, on it)
Now it’s me-time believe that
If it’s yours when you want it
I wouldn’t promise I need that
Till I’m everywhere that you be at
I can’t fall back go quick
Cause this here a fatal attraction so I take it all or I don’t want shit

[Pre-Hook — Rita Ora:]
You used to be thirsty for me (Right)
But now you wanna be set free
This is the web, web that you weave
So baby now rest in peace (It’s all over with now)

[Hook — Rita Ora:]
I’m gonna love ya
Until you hate me (Right)
And I’m gonna show ya (Show ‘em what show ‘em what)
What’s really crazy
You should’ve known better
Than to mess with me, honey
I’m gonna love ya, I’m gonna love ya
Gonna love ya, gonna love ya
Like a black widow, baby

Bl-bl-bla-black widow, baby
