M.I.A. is back.... and is as badass as ever.

Oh my god, this is great news. The newest single from M.I.A., entitled "Born Free", has just leaked on Pitchfork; it's raw, its punk, it punches you in the face.... all the things I would have only dreamed of seeing from her. Who knew she would go from announcing her retirement from music to heading in this mindblowing new musical direction for her unexpected third full-length album. We all know she has an affinity for punk music, seeing as "Paper Planes" samples The Clash's "Straight to Hell", but this song has a completely new vibe. If the CBGB era and modern music production had a prodigal superbaby, this would be it. I love it. You should love it too.
