Iggy Azalea set multiple historic firsts in her career. She became the first non-American female rapper to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Fancy." She was also the first non-American female rapper to top the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Her simultaneous occupancy of the top two Hot 100 spots with "Fancy" and "Problem" was a feat previously achieved only by the Beatles. She earned four Grammy nominations, including Record of the Year, and was named to Forbes' 30 Under 30 in 2015.
