Iggy Azalea has delayed the release her debut album The New Classic.
The rapper revealed that the collection - originally slated for later this month - has been pushed back until March 2014.
"The official date? F**ked if I know!" she told news.com.au. "It's done, it's so depressing to say this but it's the beginning of March, it's so far away but I just have to accept that.
"It was supposed to be October but obviously I'm going on tour with Beyoncé and they said I'm not allowed to put an album out while I'm on tour because I'll be trapped in Australia and I won't be able to do any TV appearances and I thought that's fair enough, that's three weeks, and then they said, 'You can't put an album out around Christmas time, that's a bad time' and I said, 'What about January?'
"[They said] 'Well nobody gets back off holidays and then it's the Brit Awards, you can't release an album, it's terrible for marketing', which brings me to February. The marketing team gets to control me unfortunately, I don't get to control that."
The New Classic features the singles 'Work', 'Bounce' and new single 'Change Your Life'
