M.I.A will release her followup to the otherwise difficult listen Maya later this year (I hate myself for saying that, but the majority of the album was just a lot of unconnected noise. Sorry girl, I still love you!) So I am really excited to see that the British rapper has returned to the sound of her previous albums. The first single off her forthcoming as-yet-untitled record is "Bad Girls," a catchy rework first found on her Vicki Leekx EP.
The video is an Arabian-Tokyo Drift of sorts. Lots of matching, sparkly jumpsuits, hip-hop choreo in the desert and bizarre car-riding, among other tricks. Watch.
