However, by the mid-2020s, Azalea made it clear she no longer intended to return to rap. Here’s what she’s now posting online and how she responded to a fan who asked whether she plans to return to music.</p>

<p id=”par-2_84″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/what-is-iggy-azaleas-real-name.html/”>Iggy Azalea</a> is making waves on <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DRvNRKDEgdW/?img_index=1″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> with new selfies. From the end of November to early December 2025, she posted two photo carousels of herself that have everyone questioning what she’s up to. Her most recent selfies show her posing in a black long-sleeved bodycon dress paired with a brown and leather purse. Azalea has her makeup perfectly done and her long, flowing blond hair trailing behind her back. She captioned the post with a simple white heart and limited the comments. </p>
<p id=”par-3_4″>“Stunninggggg,” one fan wrote.</p>
<p id=”par-4_19″>Other fans loved that Azalea was back in the public eye and embracing attention after stepping away from music.</p>
<p id=”par-5_11″>“WE LOVE THAT YOU’RE POSTING AGAIN!! Boss b!!!” another fan commented.</p>
<p id=”par-6_64″>Despite the selfie excitement, Azalea has publicly confirmed she’s stepping away from music and doesn’t intend to go back. In early 2024, she announced she was shelving her next album project and revealed she felt more drawn to design and creative direction than songwriting. According to <a href=”https://thebreakfastclub.iheart.com/content/2024-01-04-iggy-azalea-reveals-why-shes-not-going-to-finish-her-album/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Breakfast Club</a>, she posted to X that she hadn’t “felt the urge to go back” to music.</p>
<p id=”par-7_32″>“I feel really happy & passionate in my day to day life when my minds focused on that and so I want to stick to what’s undeniably best for me,” she posted.</p>
<p id=”par-8_31″>In November 2025, she reaffirmed through her social media comments that she has no interest in returning to the music industry, flatly rejecting speculation about signing a new record deal. </p>
<p id=”par-9_14″>A fan commented on her selfies, “Did you [sign] the record deal or nah?”</p>
<p id=”par-10_29″>“F*** no,” Azalea commented back, according to <a href=”https://www.vice.com/en/article/iggy-azalea-doubles-down-on-rap-retirement-fk-no/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Vice</a>. “But I did consider signing it for weeks. I’m very sure I don’t want to come back to the music industry.”</p>
