Iggy Azalea just keeps teasing all that new music from her re-issue of her debut album The New Classic. Today (Nov. 17), a new snippet of a new song "Trouble" from the record deemed Reclassified was officially released today, and the track finds the "Black Widow" rapper going a little old school with American Idol alumna Jennifer Hudson.
Though best known for her heavier, funkier beats, Azalea is rapping over an old school soul sample in "Trouble." A pounding piano is the main driving melody here, giving the song a retro flavor even before JHud chimes in with the diva-level hook. The new sounding twist for Azalea adds a bit of diversity to Reclassified, which has thus far kept it close to Azalea's pop-friendly instrumentation roots.
As for the lyrics of "Trouble," as could be assumed, the track keeps it close to the title, recalling a bad boy that Azalea just can't resist, despite those "red flags."
"Right, I shoulda known you were bad news / From the bad boy demeanor and the tattoos / 'Cause most guys only wants one thing / But I'm undecided trying to figure out if that's you / Either way though, I think you're worth a test drive / 'Cause ooh, you're so much better than the next guy / Little trouble only makes for a good time / So all the normal red flags be a good sign," she raps in the verse heard in the snippet.
Listen to the 30 second "Trouble" sample below:
"Trouble" is a new song from Iggy Azalea's forthcoming repackage of her debut album The New Classic, logically dubbed Reclassified. Reclassified will be released just in time for that holiday rush on Nov. 24. It also features the new songs "Beg For It," "Iggy SZN" and "Heavy Crown."
