I don't think she doesn't deserve all that hype, but it's like all those people have never heard anything like it in its whole life...which is sad, because in my country (and of course, around the world) there's many great acts of urban/protest/reggae/dub/hip-hop music talking about how hard is to live, how easy is to somebody sell its soul...etc. and everything with great music arrangements, just like M.I.A.

It's not that she isn't a great artist, but she doesn't surprise me as an artist like to all those people writing unbelievable critics about her. :/
Le ditto. As much as I like her, I think the hype is bizarre.
