MIA returns with ‘The One’

Rapper confirms new album is on the way

Groundbreaking global trailblazer M.I.A returns with a new track titled “The One.” Produced by Rex Kudo & T-Minus, the song signifies a compelling new era for the multi-talented artist and activist, who remains one of the most captivating and innovative creators of a generation. The track comes with confirmation that a new album titled Mata is on the way.

Undoubtedly, one of the most important and potent multi-medium artists of this millennium, M.I.A’s career spans five studio albums, international performances, multiple sold-out world tours, GRAMMY and Academy Award recognition, while continuously pushing the boundaries of digital and ideological possibilities. M.I.A has never lost touch with her indelible punk spirit that inspired her glitching directorial debut; Elastica’s “Mad Dog” music video, to her self-directed tour visuals, graphics and NFT’s that continue to bend minds to this day. She has consistently paved the way in the music and digital art space and helped create a community of outcasts during the defining years of the internet, a spectrum of influence that is unrivaled by a recording artist.

M.I.A will be performing live across select cities and festivals around the world this summer, as she gears up to release Mata via Island Records. More details to be revealed soon.
