[iLLnotSiCK502]

Please correct me if I'm wrong (but not in a hateful manner, please), but isn't M.I.A. a political rapper? I heard that somewhere.

[ChincerDante]

[iLLnotSiCK502]

[hotlikefyre1983]

for the haters....both kanye and nas called mia the future, madonna chose her to work with and kreyshawn said that m.i.a. is the only concert she ever went to ....not just the ppl but the industry peeps love m.i.a. and its not for this song but for all her songs which r wicked, original, unique an + she`s a super dope artist, record lable owner, producer, director and super hot to look ...

[samthepyro10]

Nobody gives a fuck about politics. Listen to the damn song, and smoke blunts.

[gusklajo]

@68rien

The fact you're listening to Madonna disqualifies your comment. Troll-alert...

[68Rien]

This is who Madonna hooked up with on her first single off her new album? You have got to be kidding me. Who the hell is MIA? This girl is talentless. What happened to all the good music that the industry USED to put out? This is just a bunch of noise and after listening to it, I need a Xanax.

[mskimbersings]

@68Rien You are so right!!! I am so disappointed in Madonna right now.

[MrJihed1]

@turkeygod

I feel pity for you man because it seems that you don't know anything about governments. you already confessed that you are a loser. if what I'm saying is a lie, Can you explain what happend in Iraq, Afghanistan and what will happen probably in Iran ??!! Wake up Bro !!!

[heca906]

Flash before my eyes..now its time to die!

[Rudolia]

When I was 12 and we saw this for the first time my elder brother was hitting me hard with every *bang* ( like 2:02 ) ...

[OdiumMe]

hmm and all this time i thought she was asain...

[MrJihed1]

The refrain of this song reminds of the US Goverment policy. ALL I WANNA DO IS BANG BANG BANG ( invade countries ) And KKKAAAA CHING ( Use their resources ) AND TAKE YOUR MONEY !!!

[cuitestuff369]

@MrJihed1 i got goosebumps when i read this.

[nickole1990]

@MrJihed1 your exactly right. I'm glad someone else gets that the song is not about weed. lol. shes talking from the governments point of view.. talking about going to war in Iraq and taking over their oil so that they can jack up gas prices.. like they have done. Gas isn't going to get cheaper... and neither are taxes. Notice how she says "pirate skulls and bones".. she's referring to the skull and bones society in the U.S that bush and kerry was apart of in Yale. Check it out.. its pure evil.

[doryheartsmakeup]

@nickole1990 Its not about war, its about immigrants. 'if you catch me at the border, I got visa's in my name'. Its about how people don't think immigrants don't contribute. About how people think they just take money, hence the gunshot... and already going to hell just pumping that gas is about people getting on trucks to cross the border! It's basically about the prejudices made by English people or Westerners about Immigrants.

[DarriandM]

@nickole1990 Nice try, but no. It's not that deep, it's just about selling weed. I like how people like to try and dig around to enforce their own political viewpoints in places where there isn't anything to dig for.

[nickole1990]

@DarriandM it is that deep, people who don't want to know things like this wont find it out. tell me why she IS NOT ALLOWED to tour in the U.S. Because of weed? doubt it! if that were the case lil wayne, jay z, and everyone else who sings about weed couldn't tour here either. But thats obviously not the case. And for me to have a political view I would have to agree with politics- and i don't. :) I don't enforce anything- i just state the truth and I ready dont care if people believe it or not.

[iTheGeek]

@nickole1990 All I want to do is *BOOM BOOM BOOM*. Basically she's saying she wants to kill people. Which is a big no-no in the US.

[nickole1990]

@iTheGeek EXAMPLE: Eminem raps about murder and rapping people... A HUGE NO NO IN THE US... but he still preforms here. So, no... that is NOT why she can't sing here. Try again.

[TheMattswish]

@iTheGeek

"killing people is a big no in the US"??????????

Us has built a rep around the world as a warmongering country. The invade countries left right and center. Killing MANY innocent civilians.

[TheMattswish]

@nickole1990

She can tour in the US....

[nickole1990]

@TheMattswish negative. 

[TheMattswish]

@nickole1990

She toured in the US back in 2010... it took a simple Google search to find that out.

[nickole1990]

@TheMattswish Here's a headline "M.I.A.’s “Born Free” Video May Just Get Her Banned from USA Again" Hints the word.. again. It's funny how the government would consider banning her from the U.S for having death & nudity in a music video when Hollywood makes more disgusting movies than that. Funny, isn't it? They try to censor certain people... just like they censor our media and most recently tried to censor the web with SOPA and PIPA.. too keep the public ignorant.

[TheMattswish]

@nickole1990

Ummm, the aren't considering banning her because of nudity and death in her video... they are doing so because she portrayed the American flag in a bad light. If you watch the video, you will see the soldiers have American flags sewn on their sleeve, and at a few points in the video, the camera makes sure to focus on them.

[nickole1990]

@TheMattswish I've seen it.. she was hinting towards martial law in the U.S. Ever heard of the NDAA bill that was recently passed? They can detain people with out reason and trial. You might want to look up martial law and see how great of a possibility it is. While you do that look at the NWO, Skull and Bones Society and see how corrupt our government REALLY is. When you understand that her songs and videos might make more since to you.

[nickole1990]

@nickole1990 P.S. since you are Ron Paul fan you might want to see what he says about martial law too.

[TheMattswish]

@nickole1990

Oh I love Ron Paul, but I am a fan of his "from a distance". I'm Canadian, but REALLY want Ron Paul to win. He can turn around your country :)

[nickole1990]

@TheMattswish I hope someone can because America is screwed. I WOULD LEAVE America if i could.

[turkeygod]

@MrJihed1

perfect example of a rumor

people like mrjihed1 who don't know anything about governments

repeating what they hear

spreading the contagion of lies like good little tools

both useful and yet useless quiet the combination

bring the nasty responses people everyone knows it's true

perhaps i want to argue with some one more of a loser than me

[TheMattswish]

@turkeygod

Lmao, how do you explain Iraq? Saddam hussein was named an honourary citizen of detroit, the US sold him chemical weapons, they supplied him with arms when they invaded Iran... but all of a sudden the US decided he needed to be "taken care" of. Its ironic that only happened AFTER Hussein tried to switch from the USD to the Euro. Same with Gaddafi, he tried to switch from the USD to a new currency. They could have single handedly destroy the USD, and thus USA.

[turkeygod]

@TheMattswish if by any chance your right

than it makes perfect sense

image some guy working for the military

has his hands on a crap load of chemical related weapons

after stock piling amounts he flees to another country before or after he gets caught and begins selling these chemical weapons to those who would hurt your country

what can you do, ask him to stop nicely? then what... yell at him?have some common sense tool

every thing has a trace of irony if you look long enough

[turkeygod]

@TheMattswish if that isn't a good enough explanation for you then try this

any one who has the ability to be both a threat and have the willingness to attack the us

are watched, locked up or killed

do you ever complain about the country's that would hurt their own people just for fun

your one sided views are what make it so hard for humanity to thrive

I'm not saying it should be our way or the highway but if you could choice between hell and pain or our way which would you want?

[TheMattswish]

@turkeygod

The only people Gaddafi attacked was groups of terrorists. He GAVE UP his weapons program when the US asked him nicely (I guess asking people nicely does work). Those rebels (AKA terrorists) in Libya were in the minority, the majority LOVED him and supported him. Read up on the 1.7 million people who showed up at Green Square to protest NATO bombings and support Gaddafi. How can you blame them? He gave them free water, free electricity, free healthcare, and free education.

[naseemmemar1]

@irishwolfheart i bet im younger then u to OLD LADY

[nickole1990]

Continued: "all I (the government) wanna do is go to war in Iraq, get control of the oil, hike the gas prices up and take your (north American citizens') money."

I mean have you wondered why gas prices have shot threw the roof in the past 15 years... mainly during the past 10 years. This is why..

[nickole1990]

This song is her talking from the governments point of view- talking about all they want to do is take our money.. jack up gas prices and going to war with Iraq for their oil. She talks about skull and bones (the skull and bones society).. that Bush and Kerry was apart of at Yale. Its all about the government and what they have done to us and this country. The government didn't like that.. hints why she can't tour in America. Look it up if you dont believe me. I'm just telling you the truth.

[joehalbohn]

@nickole1990 I'm 99% sure this about selling weed dude.

[nickole1990]

@joehalbohn haha.. its not. but if thats your opinion its cool. I already said what it was about.

[yup7861]

i guess if you're 12 or maybe 13 this is cool, god i hate kids.

[IzzieKarrantza]

@yup7861 So, if you don't like this song.. why look it up just to "hate" on it? Not to be rude, i'm just curious..

Has everyone on youtube forgotten basic grammar? If you are trying to say 'you are' then type you're. 

[DL82WR]

@david21ut Why would you need grammar on YouTube?

[Gazzawey]

@david21ut what about 'u r' we r not in school anymore yaw

[perkstem]

@david21ut

no, we thought that when you're trying to say 'you are', you say "I do believe that you may be possibly doing something"

or at least thats what i learned in 4th grade.....

[Nontoxicz]

@david21ut Well, it's more professional to say 'you are' INSTEAD of you're, but I do understand your point. However, nobody likes a perscriptionist.

[lonepilgrim007]

@david21ut rap sucks
