I love how M.I.A. so seamlessly combines everything that is hot and bumpin from Jamaican dancehall, UK grime, and her own quirky, feminine style. I also love it when someone with their own Jamaican/UK flavour remixes her tunes and totally spices it up. The new remix of M.I.A.'s "Boyz" featuring Akon and Rock City is a prime example - it takes her song which is already PURE FIYAH and adds a luscious male patois to balance the men with the Boyz.

From her newest album, "Kala" I can't wait for Tuesday's release! This is seriously a landmark in time.

Thanks to my b-0-y-f-r-i-e-n for introducin... MORE

Hybrids, synthesis, mash-ups, grafting, genetic modification, fusion, collage, chimeras-- they are all words to describe the same function: bring one or two (or more) seemingly disparate elements together to create something new.

Yeah, I don't believe it either, but apparently the day after her obscenely small show at The Rickshaw Stop things will be getting even more intimate at what is sure to be a thoroughly packed free performance at Amoeba Records in Berkeley, Saturday July 28th @ 2pm. I don't know why I'm telling any of you, I don't want you there taking up my breathing space, but this shit is just gonna be too raw!!!! Yes that needs four exclamation points!In case you haven't already heard i... MORE
