I wonder if people still feel confident about their personal brand being lined up with Nappy Dynamite. Does wearing a Vote for Mexi [...]
Remember AmyCore+friend's previous vid ? Can some1 plz tell me when "Paper Planes" became a GIRLZ NIGHT IN anthem? Mainstreamers luv it Where is the online tutorial for the PPR PLNS HAND SIGNALS dance? Even AZNs have 'found out' about PPR PLNS. Yall. I thought that song was authentic. It sucks that it's pro-terrorism, tho. At least that's what I read in some blog thingy. Not sure if M.I.A. is a terrorist, but it would kinda suck for all these [...]

M.I.A.'s "Kala" was my favorite album of last year, and she's one of the few artist I've actually enjoyed watching blow up onto the mainstream; I find myself turning up the TV whenever there's a commercial for Pineapple Express . It turns out Sri-Lankan hip-hopper DeLon seems to think she's more into "blowing up" than you think. DeLon posted a "Paper Planes" video diss via YouTube linking M.I.A.'s imagery to the terrorist group Tiger Tamils of Eelam (LTTE). According the video, the LTTE "perfected the use of suicide bombers, invented the suicide belt, pioneered the [...]
After a Coachella meltdown and an announcement that her music career is over (for now), M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes" has skyrocketed to #36 on this week's Billboard Hot 100 . Of course the rumours of her demise are frivolous and she'll be back with a killin' album no later than early 2010 (trust!), more likely - late 2009. But in the meantime, relive the single of 2007, currently a hit at car washes across the nation - "Paper Planes". M.I.A. - Paper Planes (music video)

Continuing on with posting weekly Paper Planes remixes, this one comes from MC Chris. Is it time yet for M.I.A. to put this song into retirement yet? So many people have put their hand in this song at this point and unless something blows me away, this is going to be the last Paper Planes remix I post. Enjoy it. MC Chris - MC Chris Ownz Paper Planes (M.I.A. Remix)

I'm From Barcelona [ Official Site , Myspace ] will release Who Killed Harry Houdini? through Mute Records on October 14 of this very year. Hooray! (I say "hooray!" because their first single, "Paper Planes," will be out in a little over a month, August 19). Their follow up to 2007's debut Let Me Introduce My Friends , Houdini will serve as a showcase for the prodigiously mammoth, 20+ member band's ability to craft their infectious and colorful indie-pop. "Inspired by escape mastermind Harry [...]

Beatology.zip (Link 2) When Jay-Z performed on Glastonbury 2008's second night, he effectively altered British music festivals. In doing so, he simultaneously made a mockery of all those who doubted whether hip-hop belonged in a British festival atmosphere- yes, Noel, that's you. I personally hate the fact that these genres are largely left out of European line-ups, and when they're included, they are swept onto smaller stages. Jay-Z- Wonderwall/99 Problems (Live At Glastonbury) Jay-Z- Rehab (Live At Glastonbury) Jay-Z- American Boy (Live [...]

I caught Paperplanes set at the Puka Bar the other week based on the all the digital ink that had been spilled across the pages of other local Long Beach scribes' canvases ( District Weekly , Surfing On Steam , and Ground Control ) who were all positively giddy for the band's new release, Rhinestone Republic . Even though I wasn't familiar will the Planes songs, it didn't stop me, and everyone else around me (who I think were there for Transfer ) for that matter, from throughly enjoying ourselves. There's something about country [...]
MIA - Paper Planes (original chorus).mp3 M.I.A 's Paper Planes keeps me coming back for more. I have been extremely addicted to this song recently. I could tell you how many times I listened to it these past two weeks but I am actually a little embarrassed. Either way I am going to have to spend some more time with M.I.A's 2007 release KALA which I carelessly overlooked this year. Also noteworthy, this version has Mathangi sining the entire chorus and the [...]
