Mia Rey – Makin Love ft Yung Berg Once again Mia Rey teams up with Yung Berg on "Makin Love". In 2011 she already collaborated on 'Countdown' & 'This Christmas' successfully. Apparently they need each other to get the ball rolling in the studio. If so, you won't hear me complaining.
Madonna – Give Me All Your Luvin ft Nicki Minaj & M.I.A. Four years after her successful 'Hard Candy' album Madonna is set to return with 'MDNA' in 2012. The first official single is 'Give Me All Your Luvin' after having released a song lat December. She teams up with two (rap-)ladies Nicki Minaj & M ...

I can’t believe somebody said this is the best pic they’ve seen of MIA, first of all. I don’t like this particular image though I think she’s gorgeous in general. To each her own, though. It’s all a matter of opinion.
Now, on to the song, this is both MIA’s worst song yet and Jay Z’s worst verse. He better rethink this indie thing. I know Jack White’s more into blues so they can do something that’s scarcely different from what he’s doing now, but MIA’s type of music is more subtle. Obviously he can’t go there without sounding lame as fuck. It’s Lil Wayne at his worst. Rethink this Jay Z. lol
Eh! Smart azz Jay-z being slick with the music direction. In any case this pic here 2day of him is better, much better than yesterday’s which was ghastly. That was too in yuh face, I seriously had to jump back away from computer from the unexpected closeness.
I absolutely LOVE M.I.A. she’s extremely creative and makes rule music that talks about political and social issues but this song is one of the worst songs I have ever heard from her. I like the message, but the beat and the delivery of the vocals suck! WTF is going M.I.A.?
I love this song! In my opinion, it’s one of the best I’ve heard from her. Jay-Z’s verse wasn’t really needed though. This isn’t their first time collaborating. He was also on her remix to “Boyz”.
idk about this…at all..what happened to the crazy beats the indie beats, the culture in her beats? its n ot in this, its way too watered down…like idk, her voice doesnt flow, i’d rather hear nelly furtado sing on this track it’d prolly be much better
She said that Jay-Z is a sell out, so why is she doing a song with him?! Of course she can do whatever she likes because she’s married to a billionaire, but not everyone else is that lucky. I guess she’s a sell out too then?
VERY DISSAPOINTED. ….Sound like some shit Miley Cyrus would sing…just not M.I.A. to me? It’s too pop or something…and Jay-Z didn’t help much either. EPIC FAIL all around…
LOL THIS GIRL DON’T KNOW WHAT SHE WANT TO DO. I THOUGHT SHE DIDN’T LIKE MAINSTREAM ARTISTS? I GUESS SHE WANT SOME MONEY TOO. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE SHE LIVING IN A HUT SOMEWHERE. GET DAT CASH GIRL BUT DON’T BE DISSING NOBODY WHILE YOU TRYING TO DO IT. I SHOULD TELL JAY Z ON YO ASS CUZ YA COMMENTS ABOUT HIM WAS RATHER SHADY.
I don’t think any of her remixes with mainstream rappers have been official. Even “Paper Planes” I think. There were several remixes of it and I think the one with the most popular mainstream rappers just happened to stick. I took her joining them at the Grammys as consistent with her rebelliousness. She probably thought she was taking the piss out of execs. The rappers may or may not have gotten that or cared to get it, but I didn’t see their collaboration as her endorsing them. It was all about shock value. That seems to be her goal in life. So, this mix is something Jay Z did on his own most likely. And it was probably done before that interview was released. Unless he’s taking the piss out of her.
She is FAKE…She said Jayz is a sell out..now she got him on a song..she just like any artist and want to be big with money..Jimmy Iovine and Diplo said that m.i.a. wants to be a big pop star in the New york times article..and they told her a pop star sings..so m.i.a. has to sing more..so thats what she is doing..she is a SELL OUT too, if she think jayz a sell out…..she is all B.S..
wow……. dat wuz a hot mess jay z did not help at all and m.i.a. baby you need to work on your music skills because that song was not good at all i thought it wass gonna be a lil good because it had jay z in there but i was not i was very dissapointed
I’m not impressed.
I like it…it aint got ish on “Paper Planes”…but i like it
And btw, this is the best pic of MIA I’ve ever seen…I don’t know if that says much…
Love it! its a breath of fresh air – Jays verse adds some spice
So…. Jay-Z makin’ gay club muzic now I see……
not feeling it
disappointed…
ugh

How about Jay Z make his own edgy music and stop trying to jump on tracks and collaborate with “indie” artist
HER ALBUMS CALLED WHAT?
Its called MAYA. I like the song. Its better than most of the crap on the radio.
i like it..
it sounds like nelly furtado on the chorus..
She is FAKE…She said Jayz is a sell out..now she got him on a song..she just like any artist and want to be big with money..Jimmy Iovine and Diplo said that m.i.a. wants to be a big pop star in the New york times article..and they told her a pop star sings..so m.i.a. has to sing more..so thats what she is doing..she is a SELL OUT too, if she think jayz a sell out…..she is all B.S..
I like the song BUT Jay-Z could have done better. His verse was real whack.
Huh…what da???…Lawd, not this old….*sighs* Will somebody please shoot this old pelican man?!?!?
wow……. dat wuz a hot mess jay z did not help at all and m.i.a. baby you need to work on your music skills because that song was not good at all i thought it wass gonna be a lil good because it had jay z in there but i was not i was very dissapointed
I don’t like Jz, nor do I get into his music so I’ll pass.
Not good…Her voice doesn’t sound too hot, neither does the beat.
*heavy sigh* NO JAY! NO! BAD!!!!!
that is all
