Now M.I.A. has been one of my favorite rappers even before the hype of Pineapple Express. And as happy I am for her success I'm not cuz now she's all mainstream and everyone now is all "OMG! I love Paperplanes. It's my song!" or how its now on everyones myspace & etc
I feel like she was my lil underground Sri Lankan UK rapper. NOT yours! She's my rap/hip-hop/dancehall/electro/african/club genre'd artist...not for the public. & Her style is ridiculous from blue wigs to some diamond shades [that if i was anyone where theyd get jack] and everything in between. She's just a real unique artist and I mean I get her & her songs & what she's about and love her for it because she's unbelieveably political and most ppl don't even notice......Yet cuz "Paperplane"s had a couple gun shots ppl love it?!!
Oh! & now its not even ppl loving...rapper are all on her jock!
&& there are like SO MANY remixes of "Paperplanes" its not even funny....
Artists like 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Bun B, Rich Boy, T.I. & (others im sure of)
Its just aggrevates me how they all hoped on the M.I.A. bandwagon when I've been there for her from the very start.
I even bout both of her albums Arular & Kala
But it is what it is
just know
& No one on the corner has swagga like us,

LOL .. good point! i mean, i guess thats the thing to do these days .. jack pplz songs/beats and freestyle over it! but at the same time, everytime someone uses MIA's beat or song in the background SHE'S the one gettin paid, so its not exactly just a losing situation. MIA makin dough off these rich ass rappers .. and T.I's "SWAGGER LIKE US" is one of the hottest tracks on his PAPER TRAIL album, all thanks to MS. MIA herself. so heyy, more power to her, she gettin fame and a bigger name.
--i have KALA by the way
LOVE IT!
