In a climate when the industry is ( to be kind) extremely sick. Maya Arulpragasm (M.I.A) saves hip hop just a little bit every day. All by herself. She samples this track on her track “Jimmy”. So she’s diggin in the crates. Which is more than most American’s do. And she is digging in the Bollywood crates so you know they have mad samples from all the movies the likes of which Kayne and 50 will not get hip to for years. She is not always by herself, because the Timberland track “Come Down” is another one of my favorites. But the Album banger is definitely “Hussel”. As you sit there slouching at your desk wasting time, dying a little bit everyday, trying to decide what cat food to bring home, lest you remember ” If you think it’s tough now, come to Africa”
