Footage has hit the web of Iggy Azalea performing at this year's Great Escape Festival in Brighton. Check it out below.

Australian-born Azalea is currently being followed by video website VEVO as part of their 'Summer Six' series, who filmed the rapper's performances of singles 'Work' and 'Bounce' at a special show at The Warren on May 16th.

The Great Escape is one of the UK's biggest city festivals, praised as a British equivalent of SXSW due to its focus on new music. Over 300 artists (including Azalea) played this year's event, which was headlined by Everything Everything, Bastille, and Billy Bragg.

Gigwise caught up with the 22-year-old rapper before her performance, who told us her views on women in hip hop: "I feel like I get asked all the time about female rap or not having industry peers and things like that. I feel that a lot of time we actually do support each other in silence".

Iggy Azalea will be performing at 'Sound For Change' on Saturday (1 June), a charity event at Twickenham Stadium that also features Beyonce, J Lo, Ellie Goulding, Haim and many others.
