I love M.I.A. I really do! Yet, when I first heard ‘Born Free’, her new simple…I wasn’t amazed. But seeing the videoclip made me realized how amazing the song – and the artist – is.

Just a little mention:

Replace the US troops as Nazis or Turks, and the ginger heads as Jews or Armenians, and you have a perfect allegory of genocide. She states her opinion on the subject, and shows us – graphically – how ugly hate for a specific ethnic population can turn out.
