Dans le disco Jimmy https://youtu.be/HBECisSkAu4?si=uPtv18vtMLxAtDcH /

Du coup depuis hier après-midi je me tape ses six albums et franchement elle est plus agréable à écouter avec un gros fond d'electro en même temps, genre là :

Car elle est insupportable !!

C'est encore mieux quand elle feature d'autres grands artistes !

En une semaine je commence à connaître ses songs par coeur, et son + grand hit a été samplé par Diplo, le créateur de Major Lazer.

Devant le succès du hit, il en a réclamé les droits, alors que c'est M.I.A. qui en a composé la majeure partie, ils étaient en couple, se sont séparés, et en 2015, dix ans après la sortie de Kala, où est Paper Planes, M.I.A. est revenue sur la jalousie de Diplo :

Was Diplo’s mentality like, “You’re selling out”?
Oh, 100 percent. It’s only now when I look back at it in 2015, I can see that he was just jealous and he couldn’t wait to be Taylor Swift’s best friend and date Katy Perry. But at that time I believed him. I just felt like he was right, and he was something of a political, righteous person with some values. I didn’t realize it was just jealousy. That actually, the life that I had and the story that I told through my music and the connections I had with people in the music industry and the connections that I made in the streets of London or around the planet and me being the way I am and my personality - that is what made me make that record. It was really stupid for me to put all that hard work in and evolve as a human being for 25 years and then on the 27th year meet this guy and just give him the batch of controlling it. I think that’s what happens to women, you know: You fall in love, and shit happens.

I get it. But let’s not harp on Diplo too much.
Yeah, let’s not do that. The thing Arular achieved was something so fucking important for the world because look at the world with all this social media, with all the people claiming they’re fitter, stronger, better, more intelligent, can cook their eggs better because they got their iPhone, all these apps. You look how all of this shit apparently statistically makes the world better, faster, stronger - and it’s made the world more racist. We have way more hatred, the murder rates have gone up. There’s a black-and-white divide in America, which is fucking regression. All of this stuff, it’s not progression. In 2005, it’s actually a really amazingly progressive time. You had Bush in power, but the people were super fucking progressive. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have happened.

En espérant être débidé assez rapidement...

M.I.A. est une chanteuse anglaise mais d'origine sri-lankaise (je crois) qui fait des trucs ressemblant vaguement à du hip hop, de l'electro ou du reggae... Je trouve ça pas mal du tout, notamment la chanson "Jimmy" (dont le clip disco/ringardos m'a séduit) :

et sinon :

Paper Planes, vous connaissez si vous écoutez Nova, pas mal même si vol de sample de The Clash = impardonnable.
