Chaos erupted at Iggy Azalea’s sold-out show at Dim Mak Studios in Los Angeles last night. There were fights, purses stolen, and even arrests made as her fans, who call themselves Azaleans, eagerly awaited the arrival of the Aussie rap sensation. L.A. Weekly described the scene as “dangerously close to Michael Jackson-type hysteria.”

When the blonde MC finally hit the stage around 1 a.m., she performed her popular Ignorant Art mixtape cuts including “Pu$$y” and “My World,” and debuted a new Boi-1da-produced song, which borrows from her idol Tupac’s “Picture Me Rollin’.” “I got a lot on my mind/ I’m about to take what’s mine/ It’s my time/ !!, picture me rollin’,” she rapped.

After landing a deal with Interscope Records, Iggy has enlisted T.I. to executive produce her debut album The New Classic, due in June.
 
 

Iggy Azalea has a lot to live up to with the title of her debut The New Classic. During her appearance on “MTV’s Hip Hop POV,” the Australian femcee faced criticism from the hosts, but defended the bold choice.

“I think people think of classic and they think of a Nas record or a Jay-Z record or The Chronic,” said the “Murda Bizness” rapper.

“What makes something classic is when you hear it and you have that moment that is a time capsule. When I say The New Classic, I just want to make records that give you that moment for fans that they can remember where they were when they heard it.”

Hear what else Iggy has to say when the full interview airs tonight at midnight on MTV.
