MIA - 'Boyz'

[pinkeatspeaches]

was this recorded with an old mobile phone?

[DieTerrorOma]

The Video is a retinal-whip!

[sagal54]

RI RI TOTALLY COPIED HER U CAN SOOO BAITLY SEE IT

AND TO THOSE SAYING RI RI RUDE BOY VIDEO IS BETTER CAN GO AND SUCK COCK

JUST LIKE RI RI DOES.

RI RI AINT GOT SHIT ON MIA

[uribefame]

This song reminds me of NBA 08 the game

[ilmusicx3]

Sorry Ri-Ri, M.I.A. beats you here.

[femmzoil]

i didnt know she was so old,

[sternfanmisha]

Somebody buy this dumb bitch a comb or a hair brush...

[SvenjaTheSunshine]

@sternfanmisha somebody better buys you a brain or the knowing about good music... -.-

[4yn8girl74]

i wonder what she is?

[callmekillstoo]

Rihanna has nothing on MIA, her and most contemporary female artists WISH they were as innovative as Maya. 

[skittlehappymatt]

i wanna hang with MIA for a day..maybe get drunk and record random shit just for fun...she's my kind of friend i think :)

[CookieCream0302]

swear this is the tune playing at the temple there

[TheVinegar96]

0:04 to 0:11 "peanut butter n jelly, peanut butter n jelly"

[Kailyn816]

great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MissGoodie77]

Dope song and video

[1981menso]

Yes Rhianna totally rips MIA off with Rude Boys, she even does the lip thing that Mia does at he end of the video.

Mia is sexy without being dirty or slutty.

Rhianna looks like a ho-bag.

[treehuggerdude4]

@1981menso it doesnt bother me that rihanna is sensual. What bothers me about her music is that the lyrics just dont hold water. They are not very intelligent. Thats what i like about M.I.A's music. The lyrics are often laced with meaning.

[imnotgivingmynametou]

@1981menso HO-BAG looool, haven't heard that one for yeaaars.

[mchype08]

Can we just say props to this video?

[imdatshitbaby]

Theres nothing wrong with using other people styles! an making it your own... gosh! most Male rnb singers dance like michael jackson you dont hear no one complaining.. shit i would take some of MIA's style because she's fuckin cool!... and the rude boy video was great!

[sclapione]

@imdatshitbaby Except there's no originality with those people that "take some of MIA's style", infact, they are fuckin generic.

[Nr4747]

@imdatshitbaby Well, it's not "wrong" per se, it's just really unoriginal and sad to watch/hear.

The process of creating something new, original is always exhausting, painful and risky (especially from the financial standpoint of a record company), so a lot of people/companies choose the easy way and follow the broad path of stuff that's already been successfully done to death.

Those people aren't morally wrong, but they're not artists either, they're entertainers, which is fair enough.

[Mucko21]

one of the best music video choreographies

[JenniferTapia102ish]

When iSee This iSee Rude Boys Rihanna Copied!!

Her!!

[Amazone19861]

i love it.best music yeahhhhh party

[ReviewYourChoices75]

Habbadahabbadahabbadahabbadadi­ddi... This is SO cutting edge!

[madnessea]

del mejor material en su estilo que escuchado

[ukgreaterlondon]

ladies are dark and sexy, men are bright and not sexy just like animals.

i love ladies who love them selves.

ladies who hate themselves become minging and weak in both strength and mind, same with men.

[arqpita]

Isso ái parece kuduro, de Angola. 

[4freshflower]

i love a chick who can gather a male chorus of dancers behind her.

[Mistagerfeld]

Strange Song...

[ebangha]

man she makes me miss Africa so bad!!! XD

[donutfreakk]

i love m.i.a's song! they give me so much energy!

[tnaownscena]

this song is better than all of rihanna songs combined

[TheZgodnaKrava]

I LOVE THE LYRICS OF ALMOST EVER M.I.A. SONG.

"...How many no money boys are rowdy. How many start a war..."

[brooklynlulu]

This should have more views, I'm surprised actually. Love this song and vid!!

[MsQueenb1983]

vote thumbs up @neshvie...

[neshvie]

Just shut up and enjoy the music will u all??

[newtubetubetube]

I am sick of that racist video. I am so glade they took it of the air.

[Memaildotcom]

what happened to her? she was hella huge a while back, and now she's...... well m.i.a.

[Dramactica]

@Memaildotcom

she is big. her three album wasn't a critical daring.

[Memaildotcom]

what happened to her? she was hella huge, and now she's.... well m.i.a.

[janayana]

@Memaildotcom I don't think she cares about being huge, she just wants to make music. She's M.I.A., huge or not.

[jizzy2k]

XLRecordings is a good recordings

[SCordeliaB]

Rude Boyz

[andyst200]

how can people not compare this to rude boy.. the visual style is exactly the same. clearly whoever produced that video saw this first...

[MadyRoseAnderson]

MIA - amazing artist who sings with her mouth and produces great music

Rihanna - poser shit that speak with her pussy and is only famous for getting beat up by chris brown

[Miri2008]

@MadyRoseAnderson Well said mate.. well said.. All rihanna knows how to sing about is her damn lose pussy.. kmt

[PrinzexhitahptOxiqa]

I Love m.i.a <3

[BongoOldChap]

what a crappy upload, did you record the video in crayon?

[naughtybutfriendly]

I hate when ppl compara MIA and rihaanna, one is a devil worshipper, and one is not...

[Bamboozled420]

Its official, Paper Planes is her only good song.

[unpolloesunpajaro]

@Bamboozled420 that is like, your opinion man :P no but seriously...bucky done gun, galang, born free, bamboo banger, all of them are excellent, well produced tracks...and well, when you are that talented and have like one of the best producers in the world (Diplo), you're gonna get a lot of variety in the songs :D

[Bamboozled420]

Its official, Paper Planes is her only good song.

[SupremePurplePiggy]

is this supposed 2 b crap quality XD?

[allahdivinecipher]

Ms. Kylah, yes.

[Kylah704]

@allahdivinecipher Mr.Pablo, no.

[allahdivinecipher]

@Kylah704 Oh my. This is quite the compromising position you put me in.

[antigua26]

rude boy and this are nothing alike. you guys are just doing that stupid shit. just listen watch like the song and stop comparing every damn shit its ANNOYING!

[emy16]

just curious cause i love mia. what did rihanna copy? was it the back ground the dancing or the singing tune?cause i only seen parts of rihannas video and i dont want to watch the whole thing so it'd help me just cut straight to the point and look for what rihanna is coppying off of mia. ps. i dont listen to rihanna which is why i have no interest in looking at any of her videos until now

[ryan525]

this is an old song!!! but still kicks ass

[hhfarwellii]

MIA is just motherfuckin badass...thats all

[alezhytaxxc]

RIAHANNA IS A GOOD SINGER......BUTT M.I.A IS A TRULY ARTIST

[gurgleface]

The Twelves' remix was better.

[iHero3]

dis not nearly like rude boy -.-'

[HelloIAmHailey]

I can't believe Rihanna would copy this/:

[dangerblad]

deres indian tune in dere loool

luv it

[Shainheilig]

@dangerblad thats M.I.A , sie is a Tamil girl.

Really proud of this .

[y97oltean]

maybe rihanna copyed mia...but the only difference is that MIA SUCKS and rihanna is soooo much better :|

[aras887]

When m.i.a. was good

[daelin84]

MIA..u got good taste-look at dem fyyne bois ladychicks!

[carloss1960]

This break dancing crap came and went in NYC back in the late 70's and early 80's, people.. The blacks and Puerto Ricans in NY got tired of doing that shit 30 years ago. You're soooooooo late!

[Cyf1]

how can I get in touch wif M.I.A. 4 collaboze!!! some1 holla at me!

[bozidarg]

Anytime any two artists have something even remotely similar, everyone points and says that one is copying the other. Could it be POSSIBLE that two different people might have had their own ideas? I really doubt Rihanna was thinking "Hey I'm gonna copy some shit from M.I.A.'s video."

[JozzyHBR]

@bozidarg EXACTLY. And if anything you guys should be biting the head off the video director, because Melina directed BOTH Boyz and Rude Boy. So shut the fuck up already!

[DK160e]

this resembles like tamil dapan kuthu.

[blumlu1983]

@DK160e Yes! I was thinking the exact same thing... The music is sooo similar, with that urumi drums n all...

[LolitaBirdsong]

She in sudoeste TMN 2010 was the best part of it...

[KLowDJsix9]

get off mia's dick wow

[Cucci41]

hot bronx indian girl^^

[fluffyw009]

pretty cool but the WORST THING ABOUT THIS VIDEO IS THAT IT HAS A BAD PICTURE

[HalsMusic]

RIHANNA COPIED M.I.A'S STYLE

[TheCiaray]

@HalsMusic I DNT THINK SHE COPYIED BUT A LIL SIMILAR....

[MadyRoseAnderson]

@HalsMusic FUCKING A!

[misunderstood706]

yes she did i i like mia better thoe

[newtubetubetube]

@HalsMusic Both cunts have copied from somewhere else you don't know about. Noting is ever invented, the diversity of idea is only due to the size of the world. Everything is stolen from somewhere else, good artist only hide their source better. Fuck off!

[Dramactica]

@newtubetubetube

MIA didn't copy. She influenced other favorite artists. big difference.

[newtubetubetube]

@Dramactica Copy and influenced is the same thing. Except that copy has an derogatory connotation.

Everything of culture is a copy of a copy of copy that date back from millennia! Once you know this, you understand how culture work. You stop feeling guilt and you visite the pirate bay dot org.

[Dramactica]

@newtubetubetube

Okay, teacher, I know the fucking world works. I'm 22 years old who is going to college, not some teen who still at school. Second, copy and influenced are NOT the same thing. You can use the dictionary and found out the definitions of the two. MIA didn't exactly repeat the same music as the previous music before. However the previous artist made a impact of her music and somehow use her own inspiration like politics, war, and social justice.

[newtubetubetube]

@Dramactica It is partial copy. One one would expect a college kid to be wise enough to understand the different meaning of words when thye are put in different context.

Social justice, LOL. That is socialism!

I bet you have gevara t-shirt too. Social justice is so cool and hip in the Fascist States of America. How about you stop been concern with appearance and fix your own damn country. 22 years old is perfect to start dedicating your life to that cause.

[Dramactica]

@newtubetubetube

What are you talking about? Are we arguing about music or politics? Please, stay on topic. I listen and post my comment about M.I.A., not politics.

Yes, I'm wise enough to know that copy and influence are two different words. Hell, they aren't together in the thesaurus. Hello, they are going to put in different context. They are two different words.

[newtubetubetube]

@Dramactica It is you that brought that offtopic shit up. Live with it asshole.

In this context, copy mean partial copy. If culture was a exactly copy it would not change over time. This is very clear and most peoples know that. If you were really intelligent enough to lookup words in the thesaurus you would have understand that. So i am sorry, but i have to call bullshit on your comments.

Context motherfucker, do you use it?

[sclapione]

@newtubetubetube "Copy and influenced is the same thing."

lol. Total bullshit.

[newtubetubetube]

@sclapione said "lol. Total bullshit."

You made a compelling argument and i am inclined to adopt your point of view. Fuck you very much.

[sclapione]

@newtubetubetube Someone stating such bullshit doesn't need a "compelling argument". Why not use your fucking brain in the first place ?

Exactly.

"Fuck you very much." Right back atcha, Brighty

[ggGOTTswagg15]

@HalsMusic thats prolly y she laid low BUT SHE REALLY NEEDS TO BACK.!!! lol

[everybodygowow]

@HalsMusic fuck rihanna.. she is a bitch

[OdYebau]

@everybodygowow

agree

[thatsupergirl]

@HalsMusic Haha, took the words right outta my mouth.

[blueprintdancers]

@HalsMusic and mia copy 4rm jamaica

[vvijayuk2000]

@blueprintdancers this is tamil folk mix!!

[pharaohoftheincubi]

@blueprintdancers no... MIA was >influenced< by jamaican styles among others. rhianna strait up copied an idea for a video.

[arthur187]

@HalsMusic Yes, I'm sure Rihanna was the art director, camera guy and cutter for Rude Boy.

[MRDowntown09]

@HalsMusic what the hell hell are you talking about there styles are nothing alike.

[kcskyd5]

i love that seal sound or what ever it is! Not to mention the whole track is a hawt sound

[Chacha5678]

when i first heard this song it was a big deal.. i had to listen to it like 100 more times that night and dance to it.. and immediately get MIA's CDs haha

[Pipaz3]

Ling Rider if you are even try to say that se is racist you can stop right there because she's not. If you try informe a lil bit more about some things M.I.A you would know that her husband is white and a o probable answer for your such important question is that the video as recorded in Gana. I f you don't know where it is is in Africa what it is and country which doesn't have much white people as anothers countries from Africa as Angola, Cabo Verde, Moçambique, etc. Glad to help ;)

[amyystevenson]

seriously addictive track :)

[LingRaider]

Why aren't any white men in the video?

[akfrema019]

@LingRaider well why aren't there any black girls in Maroon 5's make me wonder video. well what about it's her choice, for an answer?!

[iamcosmichands]

@LingRaider cos we can't dance.

[mdrocksta]

@LingRaider this video was done in Jamaica, in Tivoli Gardens I think. We kinda short on white men here, especially living in that area

[kondor121]

it`s great song for WC 2010 in Africa. big atmosphere....

[TheStrawberries25]

@ OlgaDePolga yea def and i actually think this is better!

[syhari]

This is pucca dappaan kuthu. Search for Kuthu. This genre is called Kuthu songs in Tamil.

[22keriberi]

omg rihanna totally copied this video!!! she is crazy so glad i am jamaican right now!!

[lala90210]

@22keriberi it's not Jamaican,love. either Nigerian or Ghanaian, not too sure.

[catsband]

if u talking about MIA she is from Sri -Lanka

[Ladyx3Beat]

I love her style . .!

[lelblen]

[TheTyC91]

@nisheababii1620

[lytinin]

@TheTyC91 shut the fuck up u rascist. Why u hatin asian peeps...

[TheTyC91]

@lytinin First of ALL shut the fuck bitch you dont fuckin know me

AND HOW AM I BEING RACIST (thats how you spell it) and im not racist, bitch, if you look at my channel you would know, plus M.I.A is one of my favorite artist, I dont hate Asians what the fuck you even talkin about!

You should actually get to know people before you start judging them

[nisheababii1620]

mi love di Jamaican boy dem inna di vid ah dem mek it propa

[TheTyC91]

Rihanna so copied this video!

M.I.A Original! : D

[nisheababii1620]

@TheTyC91..stfu so wat it still look gud..di only reason y dis 1 alight ah true di jamaican dem inna di video ah dance...so shut the fuk up hater

[eltigiro]

what about madagaskarian influences, cause there you got "aficans" livin on the coast, doin 3/4 rythm dances, and tamils on the main land in the capitol. wadda ya think ? i thougt she got inspired by a trip to amdagascar..

cheers

[TheLulu7777]

this song is crazy wahahahahaha i love boys!!!!

[sickwords]

and the end sounds like Dance revolution xD

[Chelybobo]

Rihanna video has originality to it and so does

M.IA. They both were obviously representing

Jamaica and it can't be Rihanna's fault. Did

she come up with the music video. You guys

think sometimes.

BIG UP FI RPRSENTING MI COUNTRY btw

[mdrocksta]

this seems to be a characteristic of Mia cause many of her videos kinda look like this, and these vids existed from round 2006.

[nisheababii1620]

@mdrocksta...tru tru u aint lyin....

[nisheababii1620]

@Chelybobo ....exactly...i hate wen ppl play one sided..smh

[Roka9786]

This video look like it cost about the same as ONE of Rihanna's boots

[edgeowl]

I dont understand why you search and watch someones videos that you dont like. you're only supporting this persons hype by commenting in general. If u rly want to hate on rihanna then just dont think or talk about her...plain and simple. keep it moving!

[Roka9786]

This video cost about the same as ONE of Rihanna's boots LMAO!!

[pandasweater]

Its an eplilepsy!

[HaddenTheGreat]

Jamaican Pride! :)

[sirtristan01]

i like rude boy more though.

[OlgaDePolga]

notice how rihannas new rude boy is a total m.i.a. rip-off?

[MonkeyLoverOx]

@OlgaDePolga omg ur so right!

[JazzyPhay92]

@OlgaDePolga Well they both appreciate similar colors because they both lived on the carribean. Don't be stupid.

[iwearthematnight]

@JazzyPhay92 MIA isn't from the Carribean she was born in England and then moved back to Sri Lanka with her family, so YOU don't be stupid.

[iwearthematnight]

@OlgaDePolga omg hell yeah.. i was so fuckin annoyed.. rihanna lost lots of points w/me.

[Strangefruity]

@OlgaDePolga same director



[xXMuRuXx]

@OlgaDePolga so true!! i just say my bff that! :D

[sweetleila08]

@OlgaDePolga exactly what i thought

[junirish]

@OlgaDePolga and lady gaga, beyonce and m.i.a rip off! rihanna will never find her own style

[bdhammi]

@OlgaDePolga Where's Chris Breezy when you need him!

[TheCiaray]

@OlgaDePolga SOOO TRU MAYBE A FAN UR SUMTN....?

[bozidarg]

@OlgaDePolga

But I still love M.I.A.! Just saying.

[sleepylizzy]

@OlgaDePolga

100 % rip-off!

[daelin84]

@OlgaDePolga U jus sed it! Dubble thums up- jus lyk dey sed back in the day on cheezit boxes- GET UR OWN BOX-

RIHANNA GIT UR OWN SHYYT!!

[PookiePorn]

@OlgaDePolga YES!. first time i saw Rude Boy, i was like "BOYZ!"

[ALINSEANPAUL]

@PookiePorn The difference is that M.I.A is singin' great and she's not a comercial bitch like Rihanna!

[newtubetubetube]

@ALINSEANPAUL Both a commercial and lame pop music. You are so naive.

[noelmsp007]

@PookiePorn me too!

[treehuggerdude4]

@PookiePorn Rihanna coppied this shiiit! lol.... thats crazy! Good point!

[shefellout]

@PookiePorn the first time i saw Boyz i was like PUMP UP THE JAM!

[Kocsogcafat]

@OlgaDePolga give a break to Rihanna - but to be honest first I thought rude boy was a salt'n'pepa video :)

[ivangud]

@OlgaDePolga How did Rihanna rip M.I.A. off? Tell me please, the only similarity is the word "boy" (which is actually boys in this song ... with a Z ..) and that the video is very colorful and done in similar style.

Stop being stupid, please

[douglasroxygrey]

@ivangud I'ts the comparison between rude boys video and this video. I def don't think they sound anything like alike though. Just similar visuals here

[minamu8]

M.I.A.'s album Kala is the greatest album of the decade!

[ThePhatty73]

the dancers are jamaican and MIA is a proper laahndener (Londener) with sri lankan parentage you tits!

[luzxelena]

hahahahah,

Man you guys are dumb (mountvillany), . Instead of watching videos you should go to school.

1) That's a Jamaican not a Haitian flag.

2) God does not cause natural disasters. Earthquakes are caused by plate tectonics and things like that.

Y'all are are hecka dumb, and way funny.

[BabyBB09]

duh get it together

[newnewthagreat]

Guyz they r not people frm Haiti.......They r Jamacian people......

[waslain]

i dont know about her "band", but she is british (born in sri lanka)

[vegrox]

@waslain actutally she was born here but went to sri lanka when she was a child when they moved back there but then her mum moved back here agian

[Motownisyourtown]

@newnewthagreat They are from Trinidad. Duh.
