Second single from Reclassified. Produced by The Invisible Men and Saltwives.
Confirmed by Iggy on Twitter and Idolator as the next single. I also heard it announced as her new single on Sirius XM.

This isn't bad, but I really wish it was "Heavy Crown" instead!

No, this is easily the worst offer from her reissue. They should just do HC or focus on the tour and the next album.

She actually revealed this--and addressed Heavy Crown--in a Twitter stream a week or two ago (I believe it was posted on one of her threads here).
Basically, they didn't feel Heavy Crown was suitable for pop or rhythmic; it apparently didn't score well in audience testing.
The Tweet tonight was to confirm that no Beg for It video is happening.

And this is supposed to score well?
Her worst song to date.

This is okay; not bad, but not great either. Definitely not a single at all though and after the way the re-release was handled, I think moving on after "Beg for It" would've been in their best interest. I see this performing pretty poorly, which is unfortunate because she's coming off two smashes and another fairly solid hit.
As for the song itself, it's just kinda boring and uneventful. My favorite part of it is the hook from JHud, but her contribution on this pales in comparison to the guest vocalists from all three of its predecessors, and I wouldn't exactly expect a JHud feature to stir up much interest in this single anyway. So this choice just seems very wrong to me.

i kind of like it and have been a fan of J Hud since she was on Idol . her hook sounds pretty good . hopefully she can have a Pop crossover with this.

So, a month or so ago, a radio station in my country played this, saying it's a new single ("Beg For It" flopped here), and I tweeted to them asking them since when they are choosing their own singles, but they were right apparently. I like this :)

Sounds ready for Pop. One of those Doo-Wop songs.

I don't get the hate for this one. It's a poppier sound than Black Widow and Beg for It. But it's kind of a waste to put out the re-release and not have at least three obvious singles included. #Justice4Work

This was the right choice. It sounds poppy and is catchy. It also sounds nothing like her past songs which should shut the haters up.

This song was one of the first ones that stood out to me when I heard the re release. I actually added it to a mix along with her duet with TI "Change Your Life. Though I do enjoy her more poppier stuff.

Iggy Szn or Heavy Crown would have been better.

I could take it or leave it. If I heard it on the radio, I might keep it on, unless I knew that there were better songs about to be played on other stations.

The love/hate for this track seems to be an even split. It'll be interesting to see how this performs.

I'm not here for this or any of the new Reclassified songs being a single, tbh. "Work" or even "100" would have been better.
