M.I.A.
 

For those who don't her:

"M.I.A., real name: Mathangi "Maya" Arulpragasam, (born 1977 in Hounslow, London, U.K.) is a Sri Lanka-raised singer and artist. Her style has been described as a mixture of hip hop, ragga, dancehall, electro and punk
Arular is M.I.A.'s highly anticipated debut album. The album is titled after her father's political code name used during the Tamil independence movements. After months of delays due to sample issues, "Arular" was finally released on March 22, 2005 in America to universal critical acclaim. Almost a month later, "Arular" was released in the UK with two new tracks.
A few tracks from M.I.A's next album are going to be produced by the legendary Timbaland".

I love her music. It's both intensely urban and aggressively modern. She is one of those singers that lives up to the hype and met my sky-high expectations.

Any fans here???

i LOVE her!!! i had never heard of her until her album released her in the u.s. i was at a local indie music store and they were playing this AMAZING cd overhead and i went to the counter and asked who it was...it was m.i.a. and i bought the cd on the spot. she's great!!!

She's pretty cool. Arular was quite nice. I heard the 2004 bootleg album she released was even better, but I haven't heard it yet. I must say though, I don't really get the hype.

i hate the hype...its like...i want her all to myself, but now she is getting popular. haha!

LOL, so true! She's getting all popular! ;~~
Thank God nobody knows Ayu here! I feel special by liking her!
LOL
;~~

If anybody is interested I can upload some songs by M.I.A.!

same here! not too many ayu fans around here, although there are a few. but its also lonely not knowing anyone else who likes your music.

LOL she walked out of the Mercury Music awards because she didn't win :laugh

she just played in a festival here in brazil. i watched her show in the tv and she did an amazing job !! i love her song "10 dollar".

LMFAO! =O

I didn't even know that, haha. Anyway, Antony & The Johnsons won over her, and deserved so, too. I Am A Bird Now is a masterpiece.

yeahhh, tim festival right???
omg, she did so good! i wish i was there!
;~~

yep, that's it ! and haha, we're from the same city...

she really good?gotta find her album !!!

Owww, that's nice! You're the 1st Ayu fan I found here! o/

I can upload some tracks if you want me to!

How could I have missed this. (*.*) All it took was one video on MTV TRL and a full news splash on the Newspaper and now I just pre-ordered Arular from a nearby shop. I love Galang! Bpulse, upload! 1 or 2 tracks would be nice! Err.. i know her dad died in some war or fight, but what made him killed? Was it intentional? :tired

edit: Wikipedia is amazing no need to explain.. ^^

This is dead cool.

Lol, M.I.A. is just really talented!
I'm really looking forward her second album!
Anyways, I uploaded some songs, here they are!
