M.I.A.
 

i just heard arular today and im hooked already.
im very new to this kind of music. if anyone can point me in a good direction from here id be happy.

What took you so long?what took you all night?

dunno.
i heard about her ages ago but never got round to listening.
then i saw nicfits post in the "recent favorites" thread and checked it out.
its great.
any recommendations then porkmarras?

Well,i'd get into our lady la sovereign next and so forth.

I'd light the cd on fire and completely forget about her.

ha ha,i already told wax to check lady assss ooohhh veeeeee,pork!
so,you "londoners" and so on,any other name worth checking? maybe shytsie (sp)?actually i do not know why,but i can only imagine music like that with a feminine "vocalist",but i assume there are male emcees too...aaay?
p.s. october 13th new lady SOV album on jay z label...argh.

this sounds a bit too KKKesque.ha ha.

Lethal Bizzle next.

I assume that you are familiar with Dizzie Rascal already.

I liked the album a lot at first. It seemed fun and had a unique blend of influences and beats from Grime to Dance Hall to Brazilian street etc. But for some reason it's luster wore off fairly quickly. And I don't think that had do do with her opening for Gwen Stephani. I'd still hit it though. Both of them actually.

yeah, know dizzie rascal.
im more interested in female vocalists though.

Yeah, the appeal of the MIA album wore off quite quick for me as well and some songs became just plain annoying. Lady Sovs appeal lasted longer though but she's taken way too long to put out the album (still not out yet right?)

oct 6th i just read.
as i say, i just got into this today, so i cant tell how long it might carry on sounding good.
anymore names to throw in?

welcome to 2004

^^^^??

that album is from 2005, no?
also......... what?

I get MIA songs stuck in my head a lot, some of my friends are really into her.

PIRACY FUNDS TERRORISM = 2004

lawl, noob

mia's piracy funds terrorism was released in 2004.
thats what im talking about

I have that Galang song on the computer, it's annoying now but fun to listen to everynow and then. Same with Lady Sovergien, they get old really quick. Does anyone know who the 3 british girl rappers who they were comparing to the beastie boys?
