I love M.I.A! Its political music that I can too (grant it Im dancing like a crazy fool). When I first heard her album Arular I wasnt sure about it because it sounded like a bunch of jumbled dance hall noises. But the more I listened the more I liked it

Here is some background and videos

Her style contains elements of grime, hip-hop, ragga, dancehall, electro, reggaeton and baile funk. The story of her life is really amazing. She is a refugee from Sri Lanka living in London.

Sun Showers- one of my favorite songs! It took me forever to find this video on youtube. There are better quality videos out there if you want to see them because this really is a visually pretty video
