“Bad Girls” by M.I.A.

“Live fast, die young, bad girls do it well” - M.I.A.’s motto from her VICKI LEEKX mixtap. The Romain Gavras-directed (remember his video for Born Free?) drops on Wednesday via disconaivetebecause my obsession with Mathangi “Maya” Arulpragasam isn’t badass enough. Pull up the people.

“It Takes a Muscle to Fall in Love” by M.I.A. (uh it so does)

djtannernyc:

Diplo and M.I.A. are like Jack Daniels and cigarettes - they make each other better.  For a chick that is known for coming hard, it’s kinda nice to hear Mathangi go soft.

“Sunshine” by @Rye Rye and @M.I.A

M.I.A was already my favorite thing of all time…. and now she has an adorable side-kick. Watch them dance in the street. Now bounce to the beat. Brill.

Moment. @CreatorsProject.
12 Hours of art, music and all around chaos. 

This weekend Jetsetter partnered with our friends at Vice Magazine to give away two tickets to the Creators Project New York event, hosted at the über-hip Milk Studios.

“What’s the Creators Project?” you ask. Its a partnership between Intel and Vice Magazine dedicated to the celebration of creativity and culture across media, and around the world… i.e. the coolest kids in town getting together to hang out, show off and generally have killer time. 

The New York event kicked off a series of five Creators Project events around the world with stops in London, Sao Paulo, Seoul, and ending with a three-day grand finale in Beijing. Each stop will feature performances, screenings, and exhibits highlighting the fusion of technology and creativity. From Spike Jonze to The XX, Mark Ronson to M.I.A., here’s a look inside The Creators Project.

Weekend recap from start to finish… go!


Dinner. Momofuku Ko.

Wednesday. 7 PM.

Since its introduction into the New York food scene, Momofuku Ko has brought both a feeling of fear and exhiliaration to my otherwise settled stomach. T-Minus 24 Hours: Mental preparation begins. T-Minus 12 Hours: Starvation. T-Minus 0 Hours: Show. No. Fear.  It’s all just preparation for the Amazing Race. 
Check Top 5 Thursday: Go to Ko for the full review.

Upfront. Adult Swim Party with M.I.A.

Wednesday. 10 PM. 

At some point, many moons ago, I was just an odd girl, obsessed with an obscure Sri Lankin rap artist. Now, I’m still an odd girl, but my feverish love for M.I.A. is socially acceptable. M.I.A, also known as Mathangi “Maya” Arulpragasam is a british songwriter, producer, rapper, designer, artist, activist and rapper known for pushing the limits. She came out of the shadows in 2009 with her hit “Paper Planes” and was named as one of the World’s Most Influential people by Time Magazine. M.I.A got me through my deep, dark, artistic days with songs like Amazon, Fire Fire and Bucky Done Gun. Now, she’s repping major TV networks with her ‘fan favorites’. M.I.A., oh how you’ve grown.

@_M_I_A_ you have my support, always and forever. Despite this.

Within a day of its controversial debut on the Web, the video for M.I.A’s song “Born Free” has been pulled from YouTube. The video, directed by Romain Gavras, the son of Costa-Gavras, depicts an unspecified military force, with some wearing American flags on their uniforms, rounding up red-headed men from an apartment building and taking them to a desert to be tortured.

Spinner.com wrote: “If you’re into cinematic displays of violence that make overt political statements about the way state-run armed forces control people, then this one’s for you.”
