I’ve been a fan of M.I.A dating back to 2004. Almost a decade ago. Yes, M.I.A has been around for awhile. In my opinion M.I.A can’t make a bad track, its impossible. This controversial artist raps about sex, politics and war. In this case M.I.A raps about religion on the track “S.U.S. ( Save Ur Soul.)“. M.I.A teams up with Baltimore artist Blaqstarr and covers a gospel song by Tom Waits, titled “Way Down in the Hole”. “Way Down in the hole” is the theme song for the HBO show “The Wire” There has been 5 version of Tom Waits “Way Down in the hole” for every season. Too bad there wasn’t a 6th season. This would of been a great intro tune
“IF THE DEVIL = MONEY = WAR THEN THE BIGGEST BALLERS ARE WITHIN US ALL. I GOT A SHOVEL IN THE GARDEN…AND TONIGHT I’LL STICK THE DEVIL DOWN A HOLE” - M.I.A
