M.I.A. Is Back!

MIA-bedroom The elusive Sri Lankan provocateur has released “MATANGI Mix For Kenzo,” an eight-minute track heavy on the world music influences that made her early work so interesting.

It is a fantastic dance track, but those looking for another radio-banger a la “Paper Planes” will be disappointed. M.I.A.’s voice does not emerge until 5:14 into the song.

Whenever M.I.A. unveils new music it is usually a pretty elaborate event. For instance, check out the webpage dedicated to this track.
