M.I.A. live@lowlands 2007 - Hussel

[Tukker74]

Would have loved to see her there, too bad Lowlands got too mainstream too quick.

[flylikebuterfly]

MIA knows how to keep bootywerk !!!!! :)

[VinciePrincie]

The Netherlands <3

[takord]

SHES CREATIVE

[BobDS06]

love the albums, but you have to be quite the fanboy to appreciate this

[watchSophie]

seeing her in tha summah oooh yeah

[juanmora19910209]

lmfao yea...clearly not a performer..but i enjoy her art.

[MrJordan2513]

@juanmora19910209 her voice is not amazing live but she gives an amazing show !!!!

[TheAxis456]

this is fucking terrible. do people actually enjoy this?

[TejasM14]

@TheAxis456 I don't get it man...I am the only one who doesn't consider this music?

[TheFitnessTutor]

@TejasM14 Yea you're pretty much a moron then...

[lastflightof79]

The only thing I hate is that damn air horn effect. It is so lame.

[PookiePorn]

@lastflightof79 she uses the airhorn so much in her concerts

i saw her the other night

nd she used it atleast 30 times in an 1 and a half hour set.

[AmabileLoSasso]

I've listened to her albums: fantastic

I've seen her live: great and exciting show

Seeing her like this, on video, I realize (even if I knew it) that she is not a singer and nor a dancer :-)

but it's fine.

[SuperBraines]

This is definately playing on my MP3....ain't nothing like live music! i'll tell ya :)

[pokabeb]

Fucking love all the white people trying to dance

[shackleton555]

I think this is my favorite track on her album kala. so fucking cool.

[lopey909]

i love how one of the main people in the audience right in front of the camera is yawning...and the "concert" just began

[joakimlowing]

Seriously...this is so fucking crappy....

[Jael97139]

J'adooooooooooooooore (y)

[BettiePie]

"I hate money 'cause it makes me numb"

Baddest lyric ever.

[EspanaDevil666]

crowd was weaakkk!

[soccerlu08]

so tribal, I love it

[AsellusPrimus]

I love how there are so many different types of people there.

[sinverb]

wow they were waisted! the girls...

[omgaw]

she is so fucking adorable, my god. i want to put her in my pocket lol!

[PrettyFartMaster]

i love how quiet it gets when she's like "we wanna take you to Africa" lol

[MrLoveSUDAN]

@PrettyFartMaster you wish you were in Africa.. best place in the world watch ur mouth bitch

[efsq]

the black chick can't be hotter

[skierbumCC]

fuckin mad synth at 2:33. wow

[razorbladekisses101]

LOL!!I love how all the white ppl in the audience have no rhythm..Its cute.

[12nenegino12]

@razorbladekisses101 fucking racist bitch

[razorbladekisses101]

Im white idiot..

[Daveborg94]

It's true, man. We don't have rhythm.

[hayleyhayleyhayleyy]

hahaha fuck me, she really cant sing for shit. i mean half that song is talking, and its flat as hell. but, at least she doesnt lipsync, like other artists would. and i would still pay big money to see her, because she is just amazing!

[coffius]

Wow...

I like the songs on the album

but on live she is really rubbish... seems she has no idea of how to sing..

[spicyxlilxman]

i mean, people don't generally like her because of her voice. they like her because she can dance and rap and because she's sexy and all of her mixes are sweet. she just knows how to write.

[HKsWorld]

@spicyxlilxman No actually people aren't here for her dancing, rapping or singing, we all know M.I.A. is not a live artist, but we are here for her unique genre mixes metafors lyrics and artistary

[andye2007]

Couldn't agree more

[nasigorenggg]

i like that dance they do in the beggining lol

[czukcza19]

could someone explain to me what does "hussel" means?

[icer2004]

hussel is the same as hustle. I'm not sure if it's spelled that way because it's the British spelling or the Sri Lankan spelling, or what. It means the same as hustle though.

[Pancakesatthedisco]

thats how we spell it in england

[stunned86]

To those who believe, no explanation is necessary. To those who ask, no explanation is possible.

[babyincwedible]

making money

[bjofaye]

I think "hussel" just a word made by herself to describe someones who "got hustle on their minds"... I guess....

[OfficialGetGln]

@czukcza19 "hussel" means "hustle" -- work quickly and continually

[econchick]

COOLEST CONCERT EVER!!!

[MOOMOOLUV5U]

lmao i like it

[danielhl22]

m.i.a she is so sexy!!!!!

[DANCESwithMUPPETS]

what the fuck is this?

[brautigan1]

Wow is this ever bad, lmao. I mean, horrible bad.  It's almost like a madtv skit for god's sake.

[jhayita1]

i love this song

[PYT836]

M.I.A = LTTE SUPPORTER = TERRORIST !!!

[promisuous88]

What the fuck are you talking about?:p

[andrescadaver]

dude.... u crazy???

[PYT836]

you hve no idea!!!

[andrescadaver]

her fathers had some kind of affiliation but she isn't into any of that, that's just some asshole trying to get attention for himself

[ko0p]

LMAO!!! this video always makes me laugh, i keep comin back

[celliddruid]

her voice is not so good in this one usaly its better

[bijlmerbreakz]

MIA is the ultimate artist.

[edwardnortonfan]

it was the last performance of the show, she was probably really tired, or it could be nerves, none many of us have been in front of that many people.

[Dethdik]

Wow, that was one of the worst things Ive ever seen.

[mkc3188]

1:37 guy in the blue shirt waving his arms in the air shits hilarious

[smellycato]

omfg hahahahhaha i died laughing

[eburn]

HAHAHAHAHA

[lucklauzx]

FFS. lmao!

[LayLow2K7]

hahah nice one. btw how do you link to a point in the video like you did?

[PookiesFR]

HAHAHAHAHA nooooooooo it's a nerd nop?

[webspaceplaceplacebo]

LOVE IT

[Dilemma21]

she's an artist....wordsmith if you will......but in order to make it in the music biz these days you have to tour and play out as much as possible......her album might be badass but it doesnt translate to this style of live show.

[Aceboogie101killa]

Dude, I think you need to listen more carefully. He is saying the following: "I rep Africa, Not Miami!!! Miami not mayate!!!! Besides mayate in spanish is a very offensive word!!! Before you try to drop some knowledge, you need to do your research!!!!!

[cinder2005]

Guys check 2:44 where the singer says I rep africa not mayate meaning *mayate* in spanish it is considered a black american trying to be a thug but w/e africans are fking tight they chill and r true to their backrounds.

I haven't met any african american who knows a lil bit about their backrounds.

[manhuel1]

no, in spanish mayate is a gay

[chasingabee]

your all dumb, m.i.a. is incredible. not to mention she has a cold in this video

[adio6651]

ahh i just finished it now.... that is god awful im sorry..

[adio6651]

look nothing against you or her..... but she really isnt good......but then again... not too many people are good live nowadays.........

[50bop]

Is it just me, or is the live performance actually pretty good? I'll admit her voice sounds better on the album with this song, but I like how raw and out of tune this version is. Is it just me?

[ababbey]

i agree, plus her costumes, dancers.. the whole atmosphere would just be amazing!

[pattydukes89]

not just you, i totally agree

[LikaMiyuki]

I love Maia's voice on studio, but this performance live is so bad. Anyways, the quality of the video is very good, thanks for uploading that.

[chandru1103]

wait after aout five years of touring she will be much better, the problem is she went from ultra unknown to really famous way too quickly...she'll get there give her time.

[datch1ck912]

damn. tht crowd wuz weak as fuqq. i wudve ben tryna git on stage w/ her lol

[djmattdavies]

is that sinden on the decks??

[shamendrasen]

[project291284]

whos the girl with m.i.a??

shes hot ass fuck!!

XD!!

[yesitsconor]

rye rye

[Tinotoro]

thats not rye rye, lmfao!!!!!

thats cherry

[dsignrdane]

this woman is my idol and all but i'm sorry to say she is not good live. if anyone can find a really good live performance of hers please let me know.

[husseltown]

i love her!

[Julissa199228]

is she drunk??

[phillipsbase]

God she is HOOOOT

[taelortaelor]

ahh i want her tights yeah!

[jmoney51545]

all her music bloows

[Tukuklan]

damn her voice sounds sooo different from the album

she can't catch her breath.

tisk tisk

[brianiskool83]

means like doing working hard at illegal stuff.

[artemetrajes]

What does Hussel means?

[jmcrae517]

Its has the same meaning Hustle. Different spelling. when she says grind it like a dead give away

[sk3grl101]

to work hard lol

[MerkabaStar]

Hussel is the same as hustle. To work hard for your money....whether it be legal or illegal.

[beeyonce]

hey j t kifff!!! ma new star!!

[miniskirtz]

i can see how this performance would be described as raw, she certainly uses no background vocals, just her and the back up singer. but her albums are beautifully produced, and i think even more polished than most the crap on the radio, hell, timba land helped produced her most recent album, i think its pretty damn polished. she has amazing lyrics and a great ear for sounds

[MechanicalSperm]

M.I.A

M-Missing

I-In

A-Action

[monorailblue]

This song makes me feel like I'm in the jungle! :)

[jnyca]

I love M.I.A. so original and edgey. I like how there's a lot of raw sound too, it's not all polished. I think music is too enhanced these days, rock should have rough edges ;)

[neonbible08]

original?....sample the clash not original

[MerkabaStar]

her style is orginal. Sampling is nothing nowadays.

[yesitsconor]

yeah

[Mariah203]

african colors??? africa has like a thousand different ethnic groups

what r european colors?? asian colors?? australian colors?

[phoenixfade]

It's RASTA colors not jamrock colors.

[jSLV4152iLoveMyCity]

DUDE SHE ALWAYS DOSE SOMTHING COO

[yoyoyozo]

i find this song to be pretty orgasmic

I LOVE IITTT

[saggysack89]

great song.. but why talk about Africa if they sing in Jamaican and wear Jamaican colors?

[Mariah203]

and jamaican colors are green yellow and black, her pants are mainly red

[davewah85]

i believe she is referencing the fact that this song features afrikan boy.

[devastaredc]

the song is about Africa; that is the reference

[tytyohhh]

haha speak jamaican? they mainly speak english in Jamaica!

[soulrose4evah]

Um This Don't Sound Live To Me!

Is she singing over her own track?

M.I.A's good and everyfin but

maybe live isnt her thing

[Xeon636]

This is clearly live. You can tell that it's a live vocal and not her singing over her own track because she hits a few bad notes in thre, but it's still good. I think she actually did a great job.

[MatthewKulp]

Yoko Ono of the 21st century! haha.

[gotvim]

wow, this shit is fucking terrible!

[JL0vely]

lmao did u see their expressions change when she said she wanted to take them to Africa? hahaha

[soulrose4evah]

Lool Yeah I Get What You Mean

[FEHN]

So.. she just sings over the cd..?

[jihen123ringo]

really?

i don't want my mom to die

[travislovesvideo]

my mum told me to be an accountant!

[sneakypete004]

this is kinda awful

[nfaguade]

So was yer mom last night.

[rickey52007]

[jorourke72]

[olander93]

fan vad dålig

[CrazyKxGuy]

interesting to say the least, in my opinion, she pretty much rox

[candyflippedaround]

you think its tough now? come to africa

[dvdgzzrll]

This music f*cking sucks. So simple and the chics voice sucks. I've seen her live before and I just don't get what the fuss is about for her.

[k1jas]

It's just traditional music with a modernized twist. It IS somewhat annoying, yet exciting and cool at the same time.

[07Subb07]

This girl has something to say in the world and she does that with music, who doesn't love MIA must not look at this vid

MIA is the best, Bigup

[LarkinPeezy]

Whys everyone got hussel on their mind?

[Mindfunky]

not her best song...but I still love the hot little terrorist lesbian...

[marudell]

i actually like this song now.

haha, when i first heard it i thought it sucked.

[MichaelRox4770]

She's really hot.

And I'm straight.

Lmao. Her beats are tight!

[trentmorrison]

can someone tell me what the purpose of the Dj is other than press play and stop and go to the next song? wtf is he doing?

[blacklite911]

This song is awesome high

[ranjistudent]

she is so hot! GOOOOOOOOOOOO mia

[madonnasponytail]

I love M.I.A. and Kala but her live performances disappoint me. Granted, I have yet to actually see her live; I've only seen videos like this on YouTube. But I wish she would have real instruments instead of the cd playing over her vocals. It seems boring to me, and M.I.A. is anything but.

[blacklite911]

Yeah, live instruments would be great but the shows are just a friggin experiance you have to be there. So friggin fun

[lonrot]

LOL yes, this song is fancy... Reminds me The Beatles.

[irieone79]

This song is terrible, i like some others but this one blows donkey dick!

[logan456565]

wtf... thats my girlfriend

[losemynumber]

riiiite

[ashie9788]

Was echt een top optreden :D

[roflcopterlolladin]

het is Hussle, sufferds!

[loenie69]

heb je gezocht op titel of is dat wat je denkt dat het moet zijn omdat je het zo geleerd hebt. :).

[rtis130]

3rd World Democracy!

[Medullaboi]

Hussels!

[scaryethan]

She is da future and it is happening now...
