Released by: Universal Music Indonesia
Iggy Azalea memiliki kekuatan tersendiri sehingga album debut rapper asal Australia ini, The New Classic, cukup layak untuk ditunggu. Meski baru dirilis pada tanggal 14 April mendatang, tapi semenjak awal tahun lalu Igggy Azalea sudah menghadirkan beberapa single, dan Fancy merupakan yang terbaru.
Dengan hadirnya penyanyi Inggris yang tengah naik daun, Charli XCX, Fancy pun tak luput menghadirkan pengaruh Charli dalam Fancy, yaitu edgy electro-pop, dengen penekanan lebih pada edgy-nya. Iggy Azalea ngerap dengan cool, sementara Charli XCX memberi emosi pada chorusnya.
Yang patut dipuji dari Iggy Azalea adalah gaya ngerapnya yang khas dan cukup unik dan membedakan dirinya dengan banyak rapper lainnya, terutama sesama rapper perempuan. Memang pop lebih mendominasi musik Hip-hop-nya dan Fancy juga bukan pengecualian, tapi setidaknya ia masih memegang dengan teguh prinsip Hip-hop yang fierce.
Dengan tempo yang sedang, Fancy lebih mengedepankan rap Iggy dan vokal Charli XCX dan musik yang riuh menjadi sedikit dipinggirkan. Meski tetap terasa bergemuruh, akan tetapi musik hadir dengan cukup minimalis dan hanya menjadi latar bagi kedua bintang muda ini.
Dengan Fancy, Iggy Azalea mencoba membuktikan jika ia adalah musisi pop dengan akar Hip-hop. Tetap terdengar catchy dan easy listening, namun tidak benar-benar lepas dari akarnya tersebut.

LYRIC
[Verse 1 - Iggy Azalea:]
First things first, I'm the realest (realest)
Drop this and let the whole world feel it (let them feel it)
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
I can hold you down, like I'm givin' lessons in physics (Right)
You should want a bad bitch like this (Huh?)
Drop it low and pick it up just like this (Yeah)
Cup of Ace, cup of Goose, cup of Cris
High heels, somethin' worth a half a ticket on my wrist (On my wrist)
Takin' all the liquor straight, never chase that (Never)
Rooftop like we bringin' '88 back (What?)
Bring the hooks in, where the bass at?
Champagne spillin', you should taste that
[Hook - Charli XCX:]
I'm so fancy
You already know
I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy
Can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name, 'bout to blow
[Verse 2 - Iggy Azalea:]
I said baby, I do this, I thought that, you knew this
Can't stand no haters and honest, the truth is
And my flow retarded, each beat did depart it
Swagger on super, I can't shop at no department
To get my money on time, if they not money, decline
And swear I meant that there so much that they give that line a rewind
So get my money on time, if they not money, decline
I just can't worry 'bout no haters, gotta stay on my grind
Now tell me, who that, who that? They do that, do that?
Put that paper over all, I thought you knew that, knew that
I be that I-G-G-Y, put my name in bold
I been working, I'm up in here with some change to throw
[Hook - Charli XCX]
[Bridge - Charli XCX:]
Trash the hotel
Let's get drunk on the mini bar
Make the phone call
Feels so good getting what I want
Yeah, keep on turning it up
Chandelier swinging, we don't give a fuck
Film star, yeah I’m deluxe
Classic, expensive, you don't get to touch (Ow!)
[Verse 3 - Iggy Azalea]
Still stunned, how you love that
Got the whole world asking how I does that
Hot girl, hands off, don't touch that
Look at it I bet you wishing you could clutch that
It's just the way you like it, huh?
You're so good, he's just wishing he could bite it, huh? (say what what?)
Never turn down money
Slaying these hoes, gold trigger on the gun like
[Hook - Charli XCX]
[Outro x2:]
Who that, who that, I-G-G-Y
They do that, do that, I-G-G-Y
Who that, who that, I-G-G-Y
(Blow...)
