what an amazing mixture of African samba beats and Tamil folk tune!! Way ahead of her time. A totally underrated artist!
+Arvind Puthige and what on earth is African sAmba?? :O
go search it, buddy. Samba is not just for Brazil!!
Sagnik Sinha
go search it, buddy. Samba is not just for Brazil!!
Dancehall
Samba has its roots in Africa, but is surely only from Brazil!
Respect for this woman. Talent.
Armina Borruel
It's called post-production, autotuning, effects, and editing ... *not* "talent."
tf u on about? what editing?

@@Gr8Layks eat bricks
It's a fusion of south Indian (tamil) music and Jamaican dancehall. This fusion can only be created in either Toronto or London....!!!!
No, Jamaica is an African/Indian island which used to be a British colony.
@@Fat_Vegan what
😍💯💪🏾🙌🏾
ignorant and comitted xD
@@Fat_Vegan Who cares? It's a fusion of different cultures in the Caribbean.
MIA most original musician of our time, what an artist.
Completely fucking agree with you mate.
No just the only Indian styled,bollywoodesk promoted with tons of $$$$$backed by white hollywood execs. She's high on billboard because there are millions of people from her ethnicity /India, Shrilanka, Kashmir,etc. in western countries now to buy her stuff,heavily promoted there are no more women with Hindi rooted western style music for the younger generation of kids from imigrant parents to engrave there culture and embrace there new homeland,it's like when Korn came out with bagpipes in there sound for Scottish Americans,it's the same with M.I,A. but for Indians,she's the only one heavily promoted she is not origional,listen to westernized Indian/Bollywood music,all like this just not backed with millions.
Alex Chalmers i dont think you have an idea what youre talking about buddy, shes a BRITISH recording artist, she took the time to research her own culture as well as others, i.e. jamaican and of course the oldschool and trueschool AND newschool rap styles. She shown that she learnt a lot from every culture but you know whats best? she didnt copy any of them. Her music was always oryginal, it wasnt made to fit into the conventional group genres, she wasnt backed by westerners you freak actually the university she applied for in london to study music refused her at first but after a while she received a scholarship. Please show me one artist that she copied for her songs, especially the ones that got her big, i.e galang and sunshowers, who had introduced those sounds, those visual and so on.
PREAH MAH BROTHA!
***** no no im fully serious, shes actually one of my favourite artists, great song too
I remember when this came out when the 90's aesthetics hadnt come back yet, thinking wow this looks so 90's everybody is doing 80's but she's doing 90's. And then the 90's style came back years later. She is always ahead even in revivals.
Fo realz
This song came out in the early to mid 2000s
Released 2007
She really is
cant believe shes 47
this used to come on alot of music stations in jamaica
Video was shot it Jamaica using Jamaican dance moves.
all of the dancing fraternity of the Jamaican dancehall are in this video, this is real and authentic....this sister is different
she sure is....
Looks like MIA has gotten skinnier! Hi MIA!! I love your music. You rock big time! BOYZ!#1 hit
Keralapadam this is a super old vid 😏
M.I.A. edits her own videos
+Restless Times in Hollywood ACTUALLY SHES FIRST A VIDEO DIRECTOR AND THEN MUSICIAN.... SHE STARTED MAKING MUSIC AFTER PEACHES GAVE HER AN INSTRUMENT AS A PRESENT.
cervio martini with a fine art background. hence the visuals :0
The music video for the single was directed by Jason "Jay Will" Williams and M.I.A.
I love when boys dance
I LOVE HER FASHION SENSE! She's so original!! This video always brightens up my day.
I feel like she’s highly underrated and doesn’t get the appreciation she deserves, in my opinion
its because she's tamil sri lankan
@@EvaGreenFanPennyDreadful 🤔😳
Just finished listening to KALA and it is literally one of the greatest albums I've heard this century. This woman is genius.
Her sound and look are both so genuine. Can only be the result of having the guts and determination to do her best to stay true to herself, in an industry that pushes forward pretty faces with laquered on identity. You know she'd still be doing this even in a shitty council flat with a 4 track and a couple of second hand instruments. Love her. Love this song.
No one compares to M.I.A so original!🔥💘
She makes such great music
Xxx
Hey
+Azm Lucky XXXO
DJ Switch, one half of Major Lazer, made this.
Ikr
tamil folk music wit jamaican dance..
luv u m.i.a
proud to be tamilachiii
Man, I remember watching the music video so much back in 7th grade and this is my first time watching since then. I loved this song and I also watched it because Maya is beautiful. Seven years, time flies.
15 years later, this beat BURNS UP EVERYTHING IN SITE. An extraordinary song.
I fell in love with MIA about 35 times during this video. And I was already in love with her.
MIA doesnt get the recognition she deserves
This beat is life!!
who is still listening to this in 2019?
People with good taste in music :D
me!
Me Cooper 💯💯
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
2020
I wish M.I.A was my cool older sister...
+Molly McDonald Yeah me too.
me too
I wish M.I.A was my cool younger lover. ;-)
@@JackoBanon1 2
she is
I've recently rediscovered this song, and it will be part of my daily soundtrack for sure.
It makes me happy and I want to dance to it, every single time. M.I.A. is a genius!
I also. Thanks to Peloton.
try N.E.R.D fet M.I.A called kites
bird flu the list goes on
Amazing visuals. She is a visual artist too. Her visuals can take you by suprise. Legend.
MIA fully up in Jamaica! Luv this tune!
Been listening to music while I'm washing dishes
After this... I don't know what else to hop around the kitchen to. LOL
M.I.A. is the best!
Back in those days... Jamaican dancers are the best
Gosh she looks young for her age but the depth of her music clearly shows her wealth of experience! Love it!
The fact that she "made it" in her late 20s to mid 30s is super inspiring. It's never too late.
OMG we use to tear this song up in the club lol! JA stand up.... i love how she sheds light on all countries ppl think low off... M.I.A forever!
THE TIME PERIOD WHEN DUBSTEP WAS DEFINED, WE WERE GETTING A LOT ORIGINAL MUSIC
Please don’t compare brilliance of Mia to the formulaic redundancy of dubstep.
Hey! There's a such thing as non-formuliac dubstep. Ever hear of Benga? Rusko (who has produced a ton of M.I.A. tracks)? Joker? Skream? Dubstep, at it's origins, is fucking banging and it's even had some dope offshoots, like the softer stuff that Phaeleh and Burial released that hit hard. It's what it became when it hit the mainstream that turned the genre into bullshit. Thanks, Skrillex & Flux Pavilion...lol
M.I.A is life. She deserves more recognition
MIA is the most underrated artist in music
Her lyrics speak on actual history and if you dont listen and think about it, it will just go over your head.
Best dancing song! So many hours in my early 20s spent dancing to this!
+Beach Queen same
Same here
first m.i.a song i ever heard. . . it was love at first sound
Same here! My brother introduced me to her music and I was hooked!
This song still bumps!
honestly, when this first came out and i bought this album, i wasn't ready for it. it was like nothing i've ever heard before. it's only now in retrospect that i realize how brilliant it really is. truly ahead of her time, always.
Her music seems even better LIVE... Captures the energy and sound better than studio and video:)
Tamil drums will forever be a thing. 2019
I've always loved the choreography in this video.
When I die, I want to be known for loving M.I.A. with no regrets.
This woman is a freaking genius.... I love the hel out of her music
Yassssss bihhhh How many bowyyyyyysssss aaaayyeeeeeee 🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💕💕💕💕💕💕
shes everything! I love how she incorporates so much dance into her music, not many artists are about that life, all they care about is bitches and money and drugs
I love her music so much. It's been about a decade since I've found myself returning to her songs and I'll never get sick of them. So grateful she exists
this song is awsome. the video is really trippy
MIA has so much swag
STILL WATCHING THIS IN 2016
ikr
lol
Still popping in 2018!!
much pixels
such worldbeat
many color
Total masterpiece
Greetings from Mexico (03-13-21)
finally realized the true meaning of this song. oh gosh it's a new war lord how many boys are in the place...damn
I thought it was a new world order, not a new war lord!!
@@rosiepestel7836 war Lord makes sense to me bc of her accent. Plus most of her songs are on that theme. This song is about bit soldiers forced to fight guerilla wars. My understanding anway.
Voguing to this 💅🏻
M.I.A. why are you MIA? I love you! I hope you are enjoying your family! Such a revolutionary!
The beginning of the song makes me turn up!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The second song I ever heard of M.I.A.'s - and when I really fell in Eat, Pray, LOVE 👐 True Genius.
who still listening this song in 2018?
Me, because I have no friends
Still bangs.
How start a war
Im listening to it in 2019
fabrice kodi me
still a banger!
She's so great! I like the concept to all her videos and how she includes The culture & creativity 🎶🤛
Mia made me fall in love with music when I was about 14 or 15 years old... I remember she was one of the first artists that I truly admired and liked, and of course I still do until this day 💕
this is where rude boy came from
Lets not compare M.I.A to Rihanna out of respect for both of them. M.I.A is an artist where as Rihanna is an entertainer.
THIS is art? Are you high?
Rihanna is an artist too
Word.
getyerkix nah and yes this is art
@@getyerkix of course it is, you''re just eurocentric
Damn... can't get enough of this song!! You the best!
Love her still in 2021
still play this song love it and the dancing in this is FIRE
I remember I used to enjoy listening to this when I was in high school. I liked it, but now I feel like I appreciate this music even more.
Love this video, love this woman.
breh, been looking for this song for almost 12.5 yrs. took my 3rd rewatching of The Mindy Project to finally find it, thanks to the soundbar.

They have the rythm in their veins, has past so much time since I saw people performing so good
SO beautifully amazing lol. One of my Fav artist of all times.
My favourite song from FIFA Street 3
So hat's where I heard it
I'm crazy about the dancing!!! 💖💖💖🥰🥰🥰👑👑👑
Love her energy 🌟
i saw this when i was 13, blew my mind. v grateful
I can't say I'm a fan who's bought everything she's ever done, but when I do fall in love with a song here and there, I fall HARD. this + double bubble trouble is infectious and energetic. i fucking love it!
Back in 07 this was the joint 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What a great artist, and Jesus, what a beautiful woman.
she was way ahead of her time
M.I.A. 2021🔊🔊🔊😎👐
I miss you! I just watched your documentary! I applaud you for using your platform to help your cause!
M.I.A talent at it's best!!! She is very creative, and also, very talented!!! I love her music style!!! 💖😄💯
this song is so addicting! its so catchy! it makes you wanna get up and move! all of her songs do!
oh the memories 😭
SHE IS MUSIC EMBODIED. MIA LIVES FOREVER.
Lol there was a tiktok trend recently where people would do the jumpy thing on 1 leg and the rest of their body is horizontal. Of course is a Jamaican dance move, nothing is original haha
Much love to the dancers and M.I.A
They were doing it back then per usual!
so thankful to my mom for introducing me to all kinds of music from a young age.
This album is still so underrated, like these songs aren’t as popular as I would have thought
This was the first MIA song I ever heard 💖 I was in a Journey's store at the mall and this song was playing on the tvs. I was so fascinated by the music and the video that I watched until the end to figure out who the artist was. This song is still one of my favs.
SUPER ORIGINAL, because I love her musics
溢れ出るふわちゃん感
the drum beats always remind me also of garba rhythm beats. and this looks like quite the party!
