Iggy Azalea- Iggy SZN Review

With Iggy Azalea readying up for the re-up of her debut studio album, The New Classic, the package's lead single, Beg for It, was just released to digital retailers. The song is shockingly reminiscent of Fancy (In fact, Charli XCX was planned to be the feature on the track, before being changed to singer MØ in order to quell the striking similarities to Fancy), and is pretty much a boring mixture of everything we've heard from Azalea before. However, another track, Iggy SZN, was also released to Iggy's official YouTube channel. How does this track stack up to her previous works? Find out below.

The song features Azalea rocking a laid back, clap heavy instrumental track, with Iggy's flow being laid down slick and quick. The song is really able to traverse genres, having the potential to able to be played on urban radio and dance stations alike. It also manages to capture the hearts of white girls 'round the world, with 'YASSSSSSSS' being uttered more than once throughout this solid track's 3 minute, 20 second duration.

Overall, this is a solid track that has much more single potential than the already released Beg For It. However, due to the amount of featured tracks on the re-release, it's unlikely that will be occurring any time soon. Yet, this seems to have already started becoming a fan favorite.

Jessie J- Ain't Been Done/Masterpiece Review

British singer-songwriter Jessie J is preparing to make waves with her third studio album, Sweet Talker, hitting stores worldwide on the 13th of October. Two new tracks off the album, Ain't Been Done and Masterpiece, were both made available this week as a bonus for pre-ordering the highly anticipated album from digital retailers. How do these songs stack up to already released tracks from the album? Find out after the jump.

Ain't Been Done is an urban heavy track, with a banging, bass led instrumental track that that rages on as Jessie's speedy verses effortlessly breeze on the track. While the track doesn't even quite clock in at three minutes, Jessie delivers high notes, the huge vocals she's known for, and lines so quick they're reminiscent of a rap song, really giving this hip-hop track the fire it needs to completely excel, and made it a standout of the tracks we've heard before.

Masterpiece is also led by a bass heavy instrumental track, and still features many lines delivered in a rapid fire fashion, yet still features a more laid back chorus, however, the verses are fire, and pick the song up from the slum that it encounters when the chorus rolls in. Overall, Masterpiece is a solid track that delivers on the verses, but falls short on the chorus, and is something while, not a rehash, nothing new from Jessie. 

Overall, these are two tracks that remind me why I love Jessie, and have been on repeat all day. What do you think of the new tracks? Check out the album on iTunes by clicking the button below, and as always, I'll see you in the next review!
