Okay, we understand she sampled the Clash. She's paying homage to a great band, in an awesome song with a similar theme. If you guys researched a little more about MIA you would see she's not trying to rip off the Clash or make millions. In fact, being raised in London (though Sri Lankan originally), this band was probably one of her inspirations. They make similar political statements with their music.
Practically EVERYBODY sample something nowadays---and yes they have to give credit and get permission to sample or risked getting sued. I didn't know this was sampled from a Clash song, though. Cute and catchy, like a lot of M.I.A. songs I've heard. I love that "Galang" song even if I can't understand what the hell she's saying in it!
