Awesome rapper

Her name is M.I.A. She (along with Matisyahu and a little, teeny bit of Timbaland) is the only rapper that I really like. She's Sri Lankan and has some awesome songs. Can't wait to get her CDs Piracy Funds Terrorism, Kala, and Arular!

Here are some of her songs....

http://youtube.com/watch?v=7NVfuSFREmU "Bucky Done Gun"

http://youtube.com/watch?v=knQuxZj9rTA "Sunshowers" (my fav song of hers)

MTV refused to play her song "Sunshowers" until the line "Like PLO I don't surrender" (PLO= Palestinian Liberation Organization, look it up) was removed. Load of BS, though- they still play other rappers promoting sex, drugs, alcohol, running from the cops....!
