Iggy Azalea Announces ‘Great Escape’ Tour Dates
Iggy Azalea has announced the dates for her “The Great Escape” tour, which is set to kick off in Fresno, California on April 14th and conclude in Austin, Texas on May 24th.
The “Fancy” rapper released her debut album, The New Classic, earlier this year and was featured on Ariana Grande’s chart-topper, “Problem.” She will play a total of 24 shows, and will be joined by pop heartthrob Nick Jonas, as well as Tinashé and DJ Wizz Kidd.
Azalea took to twitter Wednesday (December 10th) to announce that she will be touring North America in 2015, as well as releasing a second album!
Every year people doubt me and say it will be my “last” year, but as i look back i realize things only keep growing and improving for me.

Also my tour is called “The Great Escape Tour” and this name is somewhat relatable to what ill be naming Album2.
