Azalea's debut studio album, The New Classic (2014), peaked among the top five on several charts worldwide, but received mixed reviews from within the industry. The album eventually topped the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, making Azalea the first non-American female rapper to reach the top of the chart. The New Classic was preceded by Azalea's debut single "Work" and chart-topping single "Fancy" (featuring Charli XCX), which hit the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Azalea was featured on Ariana Grande's 2014 single "Problem", which peaked at number two behind "Fancy". With these hits, Azalea became the second musical act (behind The Beatles) act to rank at number one and two simultaneously on the Hot 100 with their debut appearances on the chart. In addition, she achieved three top ten hits simultaneously on the Hot 100 with the aforementioned songs and the album's fifth single, "Black Widow" (featuring Rita Ora), which debuted later that year.
After her debut album, Azalea released a slew of singles to build anticipation for her intended second album, Digital Distortion. However, a series of conflicts with her label, as well as personal conflicts, resulted in the project being cancelled. Consequently, Azalea switched labels, releasing the EP Survive the Summer (2018) under Island Records. Further disagreements led to Azalea becoming an independent artist and creating her own label, Bad Dreams, through a distribution deal with Empire. Her second album, In My Defense, was released in 2019, followed by another EP, Wicked Lips, that same year. Before taking a hiatus from music, Azalea released her third studio album, The End of an Era, in August 2021.
Azalea's accolades include two American Music Awards, three Billboard Music Awards, an MTV Video Music Award, a People's Choice Award, four Teen Choice Awards and four Grammy Award nominations. Azalea's official YouTube channel has accumulated more than 3.4 billion views, with 15 music videos receiving over 100 million views on Vevo.
Million Dollar Dream
Iggy Azalea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I give it all for the dream (Champion)
I give it all for the dream (Bring it)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
Meeti aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
(Jeetay raho jeetay jeetay jeetay jeetay)
'Cause the goal ain't as far as it seems
I got this million dollar arm
Throwing everything I got into this million dollar dream
Into this million dollar dream
Into this, into this million dollar dream
Live and direct fresh off the jet
My bet is y'all ain't seen nothing like this yet
Confident walk, it's success when I step
You'll probably never see this again, don't hold your breath
Jeevani chor
Mohj manaiyeh
I give it all for the dream (Ha-Ha)
I give it all for the dream (Champion)
I give it all for the dream (Bring it)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
Meeti aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
(Jeetay raho jeetay jeetay jeetay jeetay)
I give it all for the dream
Spinning bowls good enough to bring the winnings home
Now the top of the mound is what we sitting on
Balling like we supposed to
The level that we sitting in now ain't nobody close to
Everything that mean something is what we came for
I'm going home with it all, that's how the game go
I'm on the way to the top, I know the way to go
We just want the world while it's spinning
That's what we playing for
Nothing new here so what I gotta do here?
I like it, I love it, I just might bring the whole crew here
Stay for two years and get to acting like I grew here
Next thing you know, you look up, I [?]
Everything that mean something is what we came for
I'm going home with it all, that's how the game go
I'm on the way to the top, I know the way to go
We just want the world while it's spinning
That's what we playing for
I give it all for the dream (Ha-Ha)
I give it all for the dream (Champion)
I give it all for the dream (Bring it)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
Khushi aayi aayi aayi aayi aayi aa (Rab-raka)
