M.I.A. Bad Girls



I was fairly dismayed when I saw the peerless Maya Arulpragasam selling out on Super Bowl Sunday with that old lady who has sold lots of records, but then I saw this video and it made me feel much better. After her unanimously panned 2010 album MAYA, this British Tamil sounds like she's back to her best.

 The video is by Romain Gavras and is exceptional in that it combines the desert, dirty rap, and German automobiles on two wheels. Four minutes well spent.

/\/\/\Y/\ wasn't unanimously panned at all. Many critics praised it just as much as its predecessors, if not more. And those who did pan it criticized HER more so than the album itself. Stop exaggerating for the sake of drama.
