Coinciding with the April 22 release of her debut full-length album "The New Classic," Iggy Azalea's single "Fancy" (featuring Charli XCX) jumps 4-1 on Hot Rap Songs to end the reign of Pitbull's "Timber" (featuring Ke$ha) after 15 weeks. The last time a female with lead billing led the list was in 2011 when Nicki Minaj's "Moment 4 Life" (featuring Drake) ruled for nine weeks.
