M.I.A. is playing NYC on Feb. 5, along with partner in crime Diplo (via SAS). Tickets are just $12. She’s also rockin’ L.A. on Feb. 3. I think I’m having an Arulpragasam.
From the last time she performed in NYC:
… her super-limited debut UK single featured fuzzy, electro-tinged dancehall beats, vaguely political raps, and one of the most unexpectedly catchy hooks in recent memory. Completely modern urban music that didn’t sound the slightest bit forced or space cadet about itself (sorry Dizzee); I was captivated on the first listen…
Check out the ‘Sunshowers’ video and the remix MP3s. Here’s a previous post on M.I.A./Maya.
Whoa!!! That’s some wicked sound..I can’t believe I missed it both on tablatronic and here..I especially like the atari sounds at the end of ‘Sunshowers’. Thanks Manish, that made a very long night better…
She’s amazin’! bought her album a few months back. Tried to see her at Sounds of Brazil in June. Tickets r sold out! >_<
