Saweetie's popularity in Australia has been proven over the years, with singles such as 2020's 'Tap In' and 2021's 'Best Friend' both hitting the top 40, while 2019's 'My Type' reached the top ten of the Australian Hitseekers chart.
News of her debut Australian tour has also followed a prolific year of singles for the Icy Queen, including 'NANi,' which peaked atop Billboard's Rhythmic Airplay chart last November.
Currently, the eyes of music fans have been on Saweetie as she continues to tease the release of her long-delayed debut album. 'Yeah, it's coming this year,' she told Billboard in February. 'I feel like it will really encompass who I've grown into over these past couple of years. Lots of stories to tell.'
Having teased the release of Pretty B*tch Music as far back as 2020, the record was initially planned for a 2021 arrival, though has since been delayed. Following the release of single 'Is It the Way' in September, Saweetie took to social media to tell fans the record will feature more than ten songs, but that 'not all will make the cut,' in reference to the singles previously released in promotion of the album.
'I have experimented with every release this year,' she added in her social media Q&A. 'Visually, 'Is It the Way' definitely sets the tone for the album tho.'
