M.I.A. Goes Commercial In "XXXO"

     After earning widespread recognition and commercial success following her No. 4 hit "Paper Planes", M.I.A. is ready to make a splash with her third album entitled /\/\/\Y/\.  That spells Maya.

     The album's first single, "Born Free", certainly generated buzz with it's graphic violent music video, but it was never going to light up the charts.  That job is for "XXXO".  The song has some of the artists most commercial lyrics about tweeting, Tarantino, and "You want me be somebody who I'm really not".  Another great track from Sri Lankan's greatest anti-pop star.
