  • @xocreme thx 4 the translation!!

  • omg, this is so cool!

    I won a competition with this song, @justcallmedonna said the one who know which song this is gets a suprise; heyheyheyhey ohoh heyheyheyhey

  • People, she is Tamil, but migrated to Hounslow, England.

  • ... We need a producer like lil wayne but older who can get a group of cool artisits together (like M.I.A) and create tunes about shit going on in life and across the world that really does matter! SUBSTANCE IN SOUND - SUBSTANCE IN LYRICAL CONTENT - YOUNGSTERS SELDOM DO THE LATTER...

  • The problem today is that co-groups of you rap artist like 'Young Money' is that they are what they are called 'YOUNG'! This is why their tunes are about looks, who they are smashing; how they are smashing; what they are wearing; what they are driving; smoking; drinking ... etc, etc, etc all-day-long. M.I.A now is maturer, wiser, and creative about real life in a wider sense...

  • sri lanka! tamil! ftw...

  • MIA>>>>ah ah ah ah ah ah

  • It's crazy how she still has haters! She is one of the realist artists I have ever heard in my lifeeeeee ! She raps/sings (fkn amazingly by the way!) about real shit, not money, sex, drugs, alcohol, and partying. Nicki the best female in the game? WTF she is one of the fakest bitchest I've ever seeeeeen, walkin around with fake boobs and a biggo fake butt "rapping" about barbies and shit? M.I.A. is naturally beautiful and it pisses me off how people praise Nicki and Lady Caca..

  • @itsthenargles Lol at Lady Caca!

  • @xXRawrJanisXx buahaha that's who she is !

  • She is good!!

  • This is the Bad Bitch From Sri Lanka that Nicki Minja is jocking! Nicki needs to take notes!!! I LOVE MIA she is one of the best & realest rappers out here now!

  • Is she talking about human trafficking and prostitution?

  • @squirrelsinmykoolaid she is talking about prostitution

  • @squirrelsinmykoolaid Yah she's talkin bout hookers sucking on lollipops and clockin them taxi meters. Stop fucking ur co_workers. Try Strip clubs, they'RE LESS SKECYHY. lol!

  • M.I.a. Is one of the realist rappers, she talks about real situations not about how much money she gets or all that other bs. Stop harpin on her if you don't like it don't listen to her. Simple as that :)

  • Virgin Mobile! LOL

  • I believe the song is about a girl who doesn't have much, getting what she wants by having sex and or just taking advantage of older rich men who find her attractive.

  • Comment removed

  • @jubaiedriahan But she has way more succes than you boy.

  • @jubaiedriahan Who? M.I.A.? With her English accent I could see that.

  • oldie m.i.a timess :(

  • there's fuckin NO ONE quite like MIA

  • sweeettttt

  • A wonderful song about child prostitution.

  • @Jacquelyn104 Not sure if it's about child prostitution... It sounds to me it's about a "man eater" who knows how to use her feminine wiles to get men to do what she wants.

  • @bluemarsss Lolita was a man eater, clocked him like a taxi meter

  • @SCordeliaB "F*** gold she was a platinum digger... Found herself a yorkshire banker..."

    "Lolita was a man eater, clocked him like a taxi meter" sounds more like she's taking advantage of the the guy rather than him taking advantage of her suggesting gold digger rather than child prostitute...

  • @bluemarsss Hey, she was doing what she had to do to get a visa and get out of a situation of poverty where there was no other options. just real all the lyrics including the tamil part in the beggining. its not explicit but its certainly implied. i dunno if you listen to M.I.A at all, but her music generally deals with the experience of people in the "3rd world"

  • @SCordeliaB I understand that she's doing what she can to get out of poverty. I'm just saying the song is not implying that she is a true prostitute who explicitly sells sex for money. In the song she's taking advantage of men and using sex to get what she wants / needs. She's a gold digger not a prostitute.

    "Need a visa? got wth a geezer

    Need some money?

    Paid him with her knees up

    Year later, started to ease up

    Got her own way, shouted out 'see ya'"

  • @bluemarsss understood

  • @bluemarsss You make an interesting point. I think we're arguing semantics though. Its a young girl doing what she has to do to get out of an impoverished situation. But you're right, by definition shes not necessarily a "child prostitute", though I would argue that gold digger is kinda too casual a term for what shes doing. a gold digger to me is like a video hoe, but child prostitute may be too harsh of a term too. hmmm

  • @bluemarsss You make an interesting point. I think we're arguing semantics though. Its a young girl doing what she has to do to get out of an impoverished situation. But you're right, by definition shes not necessarily a "child prostitute", though I would argue that gold digger is kinda too casual a term for what shes doing. a gold digger to me is like basketball wives, but child prostitute may be too harsh of a term too. hmmm

  • @Jacquelyn104 Yep

  • @SCordeliaB Usually when I think child prostitute I think exploitation... There's nothing in this song about the girl being exploited. I mean she's going to the shop, finds she doesn't have enough, sucks on a lollipop and then gets the guy to give her anything she wants for 10 dollars... It's possible she had sex with him but it's not a given by any means. Even if she had it sounds like she's the one doing the exploitation...

  • @bluemarsss It's derived from a jump rope rhyme rhyme from the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The foreign language in the first half is singing the same thing in Tamil, which is he native tongue. Ma says she used to sing it when she was a kid, so it's from at least the 40's. M.I.A. Just decided to darken it and make it a catchy song at the same time.

    Also, the girl is bald.

  • Ayeee what commercial was this on lmaoo!! I didnt know they did this song

  • the movie War sent me :D

  • get moneyy hide it in da closet m.i.a

  • this is one of the greatest beats ever made, it makes me want to break dance, long live hip-hop

  • First heard this song in movie "War" but it was a remix. Catchy tune.

  • kinda figured it was M.I.A

  • @12isthenew20 where'd nicki minaj come from?

  • @96thesims shitty rapper-ville

  • @DarkHumorist thats not exactly wut i meant but okay, wutever floats ur boat

  • i can't like this video enough!

  • @fluffypenguin36 i would like you comment 50 times if it was possible.

  • because the whores steal them from their customers and sell it to computer exchange DUHHHHH everybody knows that, catering to the clientele

  • Love this song!

  • This song is great. Fuck pierolivier111. Rappers can rap about whatever they want. They're not just gonna look on YouTube and read comments on peoples opinions about their song and just not rap about it. So just save you breath and calm down and enjoy today's society.

  • "MIA is the coolest woman in music right now...fuckin period"...agreed

  • pierolivier111 is a dumb motherfucker....whats sick about bringing awareness of the world problem of child prostitution in a song...artists have been bringingawareness of social problems in song for decades....shut the fuck up, you fucking idiot!

  • hey hey

  • heard it in War(Rogue) movie, awesome

  • This is GOLD right here.

  • Wow, catchy song :D

    Cool tune and rockin' beat- Not to mention her songs are always meaningful and put across a powerful message

  • oh my the arguments below on that livier's part YOU ARE SOUNDING KINDOF UM... NON SENSICAL. PROSTITUTION IS A PROBLEM THAT WILL NEVER BE FIXED ANYWHERE BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE AREN'T WANTED,SOME RUNAWAY BECAUSE THEY FEEL UNWANTED, IN 24-48 HRS THEY ARE FED AND DRUGGED UP. ONE THING THE MEN IN THE SUITS WILL ALWAYS WANT IS SEX.

  • i think she allow the virgin commercial because diplo had the blackberry commercial going on and it seemed to me like a fuck you i'll get a commercial and use my older tracks and make as much if not more money than diplo.......cuz i seen the virgin commercial more than diplo's!!!

  • i dont understand some of what she says but this is catchy

  • Comment removed

  • is there any girls that wanna chat im a lil bored here-Deutchland17 at yahoo

  • Why would you make a song about this. This is sick.

  • Comment removed

  • @spicypillow Oh yeah, and I bet that all those rappers with those chicks and big cars in their clip are just claiming for responsability. What would you think that her, only because you like her, is different. You are wrong. She's not talking about it as a problem. She's talking about it as something normal and usuall. And I pretty sure that you are not doing anything better than me to fix the problem than listening to rap, so shut up.

  • @pierolivier111 You don't have to be to see that she's talking about it as a problem, I'm not. For girls in some countries, this lifestyle and future IS normal, which is precisely what the problem is. So why shouldn't she talk about in a casual tone? That doesn't mean she's encouraging it. At least I'm not so near-sighted that I would blame the singer for daring to comment on a serious social issue.

  • @spicypillow You first point was that I would ignore the problem instead of fixing and now you are saying that she's not talking about it like it was a problem. And then after you are saying that she's commenting it. I think you need to revise your argumentation. Or maybe I could sing you a song about doing argumentation in the right way... that will help you.

  • @pierolivier111 Wow. A person can't make more than one point? First, I never said she wasn't using the song to present a problem. I had a typo in my last post. It should've read "you don't have to be a fan to see..." Second, I think you should revise your vocabulary, because "comment on" is another way to say "talk about." Third, since you can't even read well enough to understand my point, I don't think I would get much out of your song.

  • @pierolivier111 The song is highlighting the problem of child prostitution/human trafficking. Her tone and lyrics are casual to mirror how commonplace this lifestyle is in some countries and to illicit a reaction from the listener. It's a stylistic decision. She shouldn't have to hit the listener over the head with the message, because most people should clever enough to be able to pick up on what she's trying to convey. Obviously, that isn't the case for you.

  • @spicypillow She's not an activist or a humanist, she's a rapper. Don't you see it. Are you that blind?

  • @pierolivier111 That doesn't mean she can't talk about a subject as a problem. Seriously? That doesn't mean she can't have a message. I never said she was an activist. We were talking about whether she was talking about the subject as a problem, not whether she's an activist or not. All of my previous comments have to do with the song and her goal with the music, not what she's doing in real life. Her being an activist has no bearing on the validity of my point whatsoever.
