As you might expect from M.I.A., the track comes complete with pounding and experimental production backing her chant-like raps. So far, the single is not on streaming services but you can listen to it via her Patreon account for free. In addition to music, her account also promises live streams, Q&As and more. The drop also marks the 15th anniversary of the release of her debut studio album Arular.
