In celebration of the new M.I.A. album, Kala, I’ve provided below the video to her first single, “Boyz”, and a MP3 from the album, “Bird Flu”.

In “Bird Flu”, you may say that this is a good example of her political side, expressing the terror and fear that’s built up by diseases originating from overseas. But again, she’s able to take afunny, quarky sound and turn it in to a fun loving danceable beat. Oh, and I also need to make sure that I’m not just crediting M.I.A. for her mastery, her sidekick (no, not that sidekick) Switch is also behind many of the songs on Kala. Only two songs were produced by Diplo, one by Timbaland and two by Blaqstarr.
“Boyz” is clearly a track that shows to the world that M.I.A. is a girl who can have fun and doesn’t always have to talk about serious political issues in her music. Her music in general is fun and energetic but sometimes she can’t get away from her passionate genes carried over from her father.
