Saturday Night Live season 40 may have gone a little indie this weekend (Oct. 11) with a performance from Irish singer-songwriter Hozier, but the sketch comedy show will be getting a "new classic" performer when it returns on Oct. 25. Iggy Azalea will be the show's next musical guest and the "Black Widow" rapper has announced that she will be debuting a new single on air.
On Friday (Oct. 10), Azalea announced on Twitter that she will be performing on the Oct. 25 episode of SNL and bringing Danish EDM/pop star MØ with her to perform a new single "Beg For It."
"In other news: my next single is BEG FOR IT ft. MO & I'm performing it for the first time on SNL. So excited!!!!," Azalea tweeted. "A lot of you may not know her, but she's super cool. I love her voice and her eyebrows."
Saturday Night Live later confirmed Azalea's appearance on-air during the Bill Hader/Hozier episode and on its official Twitter account.

"Beg For It" will be the first single from Azalea's upcoming reissue of her debut album The New Classic, fittingly titled Reclassified. Though the newly minted LP does not yet have a release date, Reclassified does have some new album artwork. Azalea has also confirmed that the re-issue will include six new singles, including collaborations with Charli XCX and Ellie Goulding.
