TrapGold is the second mixtape by Australian rapper Iggy Azalea, who released it as a free digital download on 11 October 2012. American DJ and music producer Diplo and 1st Down of FKi executive produced the project, along with Azalea and Stix serving as co-executive producers. It also features a guest appearance from Juicy J and samples interviews from Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol, David LaChapelle and Reiner Opoku.
In August 2012, while giving interviews to different media outlets to promote the release of her free-digital download EP Glory, through T.I.'s Grand Hustle Records, Azalea revealed her plans of a new trap-electronic project entitled TrapGold with Diplo. She said: "It's going to be very experimental and I want to get some shit from Diplo for that project. I have a date for TrapGold, but I don’t want to tell anyone yet. I want to put it up on twitter one day and surprise everyone." While feeling pressured to make the music people expected of her at that point of her career, Azalea got the chance to make the music she truly wanted with the project, "it's not going to sound like any other shit." "Hopefully my album The New Classic will be a mix of everything. I am really young - just turned 22, and I have not been making music for that long. [...] I have a sound in my head and I don’t know how to get that yet. That is going to take practice and trial and error," she added, "I like to share my trials and errors with the rest of the world because sometimes the world loves your errors. Some songs you like and some you don't. I will keep sharing the journey with everyone because you can’t have perfection in art."
