T.I. Set To Executive Produce Iggy Azalea's Debut Album [VIDEO]
Iggy Azalea was a highly scouted free agent, and it seems like music moguls are still seeking her out after she announced signing with Interscope Records. I was surprised to see that Grand Hustle king T.I. will be investing his time as an executive producer to her debut album due out in June, and from the looks of Iggy'z latest interview with MTV news, she was surprised as well.

Nina Sky - Day Dreaming
It's been a minute since Nina Sky dropped off some new material. After years of issues with their label, the twins are ready to focus on their upcoming album Nicole & Natalie, which is expected to hit stores in July. "Day Dreaming" is a futuristic, seductive track that shows that Nina Sky has evolved greatly since their "Move Ya Body" days. I love it.
