01 Jul 2010 - REVIEW

Making GaGa's 'Telephone' vid look like something by Doris Day, M.I.A.'s 'Born Free' music video-cum-short film is obscene, attention-seeking and ruthlessly violent, making it a perfect partner for the track itself.

15 Oct 2007 - News

German DJ/producer M.I.A. hasn’t released a record in nearly two years, but ‘Safe Night’ makes up for lost time, its rubbery drums, dissected vocals and mournful bassline sounding like a voyeuristic flick through her diary.

12 Oct 2006 - REVIEW

The sight of a list of remixes on a single is usually a guarantee of fairly dull times ahead...
