Tommymonster44 0 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Ok, I'm excited about the new record too. But..... what you described about the music sounding like demos is what MIA is all about. She wants it to have a raw feel as if it's coming from her to you. It adds to the ethos of the record. This goes for ///Y/ and ViCKiLEEKx. It adds to the perfection and rawness. It's not that they aren't mastered, they are mastered to sound like they aren't mastered. There's a real DIY asthetic to the album. I think ///Y/ is her best record to date. But you probably favor a more polished dance/electronic/alternative hip-hop feel like her first two. I'm super excited for the new album and I'm glad she said it'll be a mix of all her other records. I need the storytelling of Arular/Kala mixed with the punk electronic vibe of ///Y/ and Leekx. Another excited thing is what she'll be writing about. I feel like fame will be a component, especially some sort of hidden reflection on the Super Bowl "situation". Hmm..interesting ideas. I do have say that I appreciate the album a lot more a after reading that. I really love the first half of the album. Steppin up and tequila are so experimental and lovalot is perfection. The second half is stilling growing on me lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, to me the week point is the bottom half of the album, it's like all the momentum is in the beginning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

00000000 1 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) I would love you Nvm, the forum is so floppy. Anyways, she's been all over Asia studying the Goddess of music, Mathangi. Which happens to be her name. She mentions this in a video and a few interviews. The albums name will most likely be Mathangi and Mathangi focuses on information so I'm pretty sure we'll have some government themes again. I'll post my video references in a while, too lazy.

00000000 1 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 UPDATE: Meet and greet in which M.I.A. discusses going to India to study Mathangi. Here's the actual show the meet and greet is from. Her live performances just don't do it for me anymore. lt's like she doesn't rehearse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degenerate Beauty 0 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I love that she is really interested in the whole theme of the album. She's not like "ok that sounds cool, we can take it for the record". Her vocals on Bad Girls I just pray that this song she previewed on twitter is on the album . The song she recorded with her webcam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing, she's really consistent with her work and her themes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08tviW-r5g8 :toofloppy: she needs more rehearsing. lol Beyonce dancing on the side. during Paper Planes, it was mic issues, but for Bad Girls, vocals were still shaky. :wtf: Edited June 25, 2012 by ghettogoth77 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zack 15 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 There's a Selena Gomez song, I'm not sure which, but I think it's about loving yourself or something like that, anyway, I remember she saying "Don't be going M.I.A.", any idea what she meant by that?

zack 15 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) well, M.I.A. means "missing in action", so yeah... And what does "missing in action" stands for? M.I.A.'s name came from that? Also, this means she didn't meant the PERSON of M.I.A. right? Found the lyrics: I got enough of, oh, my face / Wish I could press "Delete" / We all got something we don't like / Even Angelina Jolie / Oh, throw that mirror away / Oh, don't be going M.I.A.
