Not quite though, both statements are very contrasting. Going from finding it amazing to distasteful in a matter of minutes is very bizarre.

I really like this song and the video is cool.

[Niall]

I really like it.

Never been a huge fan but i think I am now

thought I'd make the Bad Girls thread into a thread for news about her & the upcoming album:

Jay-Z's management company Roc Nation has welcomed M.I.A. to its team. "The nation just keeps growing," Roc Nation Tweeted with an Instagrammed photo of her artist page. "Welcome home MIA", Rihanna chimed in (Rih's also part of Roc Nation, along with Santigold, Wale, Shakira, Jay Electronica, and more). A representative from M.I.A.'s label, Interscope, confirmed the deal.

It's hard to tell exactly what this means for Maya Arulpragasam, who's a label entrepreneur in her own right. The Roc Nation deal is reportedly only for management-- not publishing or distribution-- and she's still technically a part of Interscope Records. Still, M.I.A.'s own N.E.E.T. Recordings, the imprint she runs under the Interscope umbrella, doesn't seem so active these days. The label's once-vibrant website has vanished, and Sleigh Bells, once N.E.E.T.'s high-profile artist, released their last album through Mom & Pop, without N.E.E.T. Rye Rye's new album Go! Pop! Bang! did come out under the N.E.E.T. umbrella, however.

M.I.A. is currently at work on a new album tentatively titled Matangi.

[Saph]

happy for her

what does tentatively mean?

[Niall]

Can't wait for Matangi.

[Shaun]

in this case it means "for the meantime" Saph like, it's predicted it'll be called Matangi, but it's not confirmed

[Saph]

ah thanks

[Me. I Am Salman]

Good news

Both musicians have five nominations each, sharing one for Video of the Year for their track Take Care. Rihanna has a second nomination in the category for the We Found Love video. Other nominees for Video of the Year are Katy Perry ( Wide Awake), Gotye ( Somebody That I Used To Know) and M.I.A. for Bad Girls.

The Bad Girls video is rather fantastic.

[Saph]

why is We Found Love nominated?

and why has she not released another single since Bad Girls? D; and when is her album coming? and why is the sky blue?

[Shaun]

[Saph]

Come walk with me is amazing! I wish she would promote her songs more, she doesnt really get the recognition she deserves outside of the music industry..

[Me. I Am Salman]

I hope she wins
Oh and Come Walk With Me

MIA has described her forthcoming new album as sounding like Paul Simon 'on acid'.

The singer made the comment on Twitter, after telling fans she would answer 10 questions about the follow-up to 2010's 'Maya'. She also explained that the record would be released in December, alongside a book, documentary and art exhibition.

When asked how many tracks would feature on the new album, she said: "its still in the making -could be 5 it could be 15 depends on what sounds good in my bros CAR." She added that there would be no collaborations on the record and of the LP's unknown producers she said it will be worked on with "ones that dont act like fame ***** coloniser."

She went on to Tweet one of her favourite lyrics on the record:
