Reclassified is the reissue of Australian rapper Iggy Azalea's debut studio album, The New Classic (2014). It was released internationally on 21 November 2014 by Virgin EMI Records, and in the United States on 24 November by Grand Hustle Records and Def Jam Recordings. The Invisible Men, The Arcade, The Messengers, Stargate, and Reeva & Black returned to produce the album, alongside 1st Down, Salt Wives, and Darryl Reid. The album features new guest appearances from MØ, Jennifer Hudson, and Ellie Goulding.
Released seven months after its parent album, Reclassified featured five newly recorded songs, including the singles "Beg for It" (featuring MØ) and "Trouble" (featuring Jennifer Hudson), the promotional single "Iggy SZN", "Heavy Crown" (featuring Ellie Goulding), and the opening track, "We in This Bitch". The album also features most of the tracks from The New Classic, including all five singles, the album track "Don't Need Y'all", and two New Classic bonus tracks ("Bounce" and "Rolex"). Some tracks from The New Classic were excluded, but later included on the Japan deluxe edition on the album.
Upon its release, Reclassified received positive reviews from music critics, some even more positive than the original album. Commercially, the album peaked at number sixteen on the US Billboard 200 becoming her second consecutive entry on the chart, also charting in countries such as Australia, Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom. "Beg for It" was modestly successful, charting at number 29 on the ARIA Charts and number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Trouble" was more successful, peaking at number 10 on the ARIA Charts and number 7 on the UK singles chart. "Iggy SZN" and "Heavy Crown" also charted, despite the latter track not being released as a single.
