She isn't lying about Beyonce...

Beyonce sound is MIA's sound back in 2005...

Beyonce pretty much swaggerjacked MIA and Rihanna...


But Rihanna been doing this shyt since Chris Brown kicked her ass...


MIA sound is more influenced by Brazil though while Beyonce's sound is more influenced by Angola and the Caribbean...

Arular changed my life...

That shyt was fukking dope...

MIA makes better music than Beyonce...IMHO
Once Diplo stopped fukking/fukking with M.I.A it's been downhill since then.

Only descent song she's released since her affiliation with Mad Decent ended was Bad Girls.

M.I.A. out here looking foolish

But her influence on music and fashion in the past decade is HEAVY
Truth.

But most of it from brasil/brooklyn/Istanbul and post b-more club culture.

There's nothing original about her than you can say is organic.

Truth be told ... after all of this , it's undeniable to admit she was basically on the 10 yard line in terms of being a generational icon.

:comeon:

Born Mathangi Arulpragasam
18 July 1975 (age 41)
London Borough of Hounslow, London, UK


and moved back to the UK at age 11. bytch :camby:
Her family voluntarily hopped into a revolution. BOOHOO.

Didn't have that luxury? :usure:

Arulpragasam entered the final year of primary school in the autumn of 1986 and quickly mastered the English language. Despite being the only Sri Lankan family in the area, the family were made welcome and faced no racial abuse :ohhh:during their time on the estate.[10][11]

While living in the United Kingdom and raising her children, her mother became a practicing Christian in 1990 and worked as a commissioned seamstress for the Royal Family :whoo:for much of her career:sas2:[3] She worked from her home in Tooting, which is at the south of London. Arulpragasam has had a difficult relationship with her father, due to his political activities in the 1980s and complete absence during much of her life. Prior to the release of the first album, which Arulpragasam had named after her father, Arular emailed her: "This is Dad. Change the title of your album. I'm really proud. Just read about you in the Sri Lanka Times. Dad."[:mjcry: Maya chose not to change the album title:troll:. Arulpragasam attended the Ricards Lodge High School in Wimbledon. After leaving school, she completed a degree in fine art, film, and video in June 2000 from London's Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design.[3] Her initial application to the school was rejected, but she was finally admitted and received a scholarship,:mjgrin: being told that she "had chutzpah".[13]

3 Years ago I was with MIA having no idea who she was, she looks Ethiopian/east African in person, she was about 5'1, had her hair in corn rows very pretty and very skinny. And really pretty brown skin, she was with a white girl and a black girl with euro accents. We all had normal conversation, she said she had a proformance in san jose, I'm like really you sing? She said I rap too

I looked at her like:patrice:
Her friends were like :pachaha:

Mia was like :manny:

You can say that about all art tho.

Art is just a combination of influences redistributed:manny:
