M.I.A. delivers yet another thought-provoking track, titled “Popular,” out today, along with an official music video, featuring influencer-bot-in-training M.A.I.

“Popular” follows “The One” which was released in May and comes ahead of her highly anticipated full length studio album ‘MATA’ which will see its global release via Island Records. This new body of work, recorded in London, Los Angeles, Italy, Bali, Jakarta, and St Vincent, signifies a compelling new era for the multi-talented artist and activist, who remains one of the most captivating and innovative creators of a generation. More details to be revealed soon.

M.I.A. has never lost touch with her indelible punk spirit that inspired her glitching directorial debut; Elastica’s Mad Dog music video, to her self-directed tour visuals, graphics and NFT’s that continue to bend minds to this day. She has consistently paved the way in the music and digital art space and helped create a community of outcasts during the defining years of the internet, a spectrum of influence that is unrivaled by a recording artist.
