"She's super nice," Azalea said of Spears to MTV News. "I've been texting her, annoying her with all my ideas for the video and she's been a really good sport about it, so I'm really excited."

Azalea described the song as a true "powerhouse" duet where she and Spears exchange verses and are equally featured. The rapper also revealed she will co-direct the music video, which is scheduled to shoot next week.

"[Working with Spears was] awesome," she told Access Hollywood. "It's been a long time in the making, figuring out whose album it's going to be on. It's going to be on hers and I'm super excited for it."

Azalea released her first studio album, The New Classic, in April 2014, and announced plans for a reissue with six new songs in September. Spears last debuted Britney Jean in November 2013, and has completed her new record, according to Azalea.
