M.I.A. – Born Free info purchase
“Born Free” puts to rest any fears we had that Pineapple Express could be a crowning achievement for any career. and while Kala set the bar high, M.I.A. sticks to her guns (BANG BANG BANG BANG) with “Born Free”. the sick riffage in the track gives nod to Suicide’s 1977 classic “Ghost Rider”, and the video for the track (above and NSFW) comes from french director Romain Gavras. M.I.A.’s third album should be released June 29, per a blimp over Coachella..

GET IT. also, check this perfomance of “Will There Be Enough Water?” live at Coachella 2010 below. Jack comes out from behind the kit for an excellent version of Horehound’s closing track.
