as for “street cred,” i’m not sure exactly, but it’s definitely something to hear MIA’s voice on hot97 in NYC and jam’n94.5 here in boston

A bunch of these were obviously solicited by the M.I.A. camp, but I'm not sure they all were. Particularly interesting is "SLU" which features a very prominent M.I.A. vocal sample as the refrain behind not one, but four Billboard #1 recording artists. I'm not sure weather that gives her more or less "street cred," but you know what? I'm sick of that tired argument about her. I think it's pretty rad!
