"Team" is a song recorded by Australian rapper Iggy Azalea. It was released on 18 March 2016 as the lead single from her upcoming second studio album Digital Distortion. The single was serviced to US contemporary hit and rhythmic contemporary radios on 5 April 2016. Azalea wrote "Team" with Bebe Rexha, Lauren Christy, among other credited composers, including the main producers, a part of the D.R.U.G.S. collective: Marlon "Chordz" Barrow, Alexander "Nezzo" Palmer and Michael "Omega" Fonseca, with additional contributors Ryan Anthony Avilez, Louis Harden and Brandon "Stix" Salaam-Bailey. The song contains an interpolation from the 1999 composition "Back That Thang Up", written and performed by Juvenile, Lil Wayne and Mannie Fresh, who received additional writing credits.

Azalea raps about self-confidence in the track, declaring, "Baby I got me, and that’s all I need, only friend I need," with the rapper later disclosing life and career struggles she had faced during the process of creating the album in an interview. It marked Azalea's first solo single in three years. The release was accompanied by the premiere of a dance video version on Azalea's Vevo channel, featuring a cast of dancers performing a choreographed routine, although Azalea herself is absent from the clip. The song's official music video premiered on 31 March 2016. "Team" reached the top forty in Australia, becoming her ninth single to do so. It debuted and peaked at number forty-two on the US Billboard Hot 100, staying on the chart for eight weeks. The track also earned Azalea's highest debut as a lead act on the Hot Rap Songs chart with its arrival at number eight and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) later that year. "Team" was nominated for Choice R&B/Hip-Hop Song at the 2016 Teen Choice Awards.
