Why do we like this?

M.I.A. has a habit of dropping new tunes out of the blue via her Twitter, and today's no different. The outspoken artist claimed she would upload a new track to her SoundCloud account if she could remember the password. She must have dug it up from somewhere because a few hours later "Platforms" appeared online.

This one's a little slower but no less politically charged than her recent musical output. Rap-singing over a spacey, clattering beat, M.I.A. delivers another head nodding induced tune that hopefully hints at the release of her long awaited fifth album.

By searra ruggeri on Mar 9, 2016 | I'm all for outspoken women keeping shit real, especially in a male-dominated genre like hip-hop. I don’t mean outspoken in the Nicki Minaj neon-pink-crazy-eyed-all-up-in-your-face sense, I mean women who are bold and have a message, bringing truths ... read more →
