MIA plans single, video, album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 26 January 2012
Hip hop type MIA has revealed she’s releasing a new single. Well, sort of new.
Entitled ‘Bad Girls’, the track is in fact a rework of one originally featured on her 2010 ‘Vicki Leekx’ mixtape. The good-as-new version, as produced by top pop maestro Danja (Madonna, Justin Timberlake), will premiere on Pitchfork on 30 Jan prior to a proper release the following day.
Also to have its first play on Pitchfork, this time on 3 Feb, is an accompanying video that has been created by Romain Gavras, the French director also responsible for the controversial concept in MIA’s ‘Born Free’ promo.
Pitchfork has also confirmed MIA will release a studio album at some point during the summer.
