Really love this - she's sort of channeling Nelly Furtado in the chorus too!

NME Reports: MIA has eschewed traditional lettering by naming her forthcoming third album ‘/\/\/\Y/\’. The announcement was made on the blog section on the website of her record label, Neet Recordings, Neetrecordings.com/blog. It was also revealed on the site that the album will be released on July 12 in the UK, and a day later in the USA (two weeks after its previously-scheduled release date). ‘/\/\/\Y/\’ will be the follow-up to her 2007 album ‘Kala’. Get this week’s issue of NME, on UK newsstands nationwide from tomorrow (May 12), for a exclusive cover story interview with MIA, plus her reaction to the controversy surrounding the video for her new song ‘Born Free’.

I am in love with XXXO. Blaqstarr is incredible with the production and that hook is gonna be somebody's drunk anthem. Hype Williams better come with it for the video.

XXXO is fantastic. Love the 80s throwback sound. Can't f-ing wait for the album.
Side note: when I downloaded XXXO, the album title was tagged as ‘/\/\/\Y/\'. Unfortch I thought someone was being silly and deleted it!

"XXXO" is surprisingly radio-friendly. Here's hoping she can score another crossover hit with it.

Even in her attempts to create a customary pop record she's still superior over the pop pastiche.

Maybe it needs to grow on me, but I don't think XXXO has much crossover potential at all. I find it pretty annoying. The stations that consider themselves "edgier" musically may play it just because it's M.I.A. and she's considered pretty cool right now.
I think her old stuff is a lot better than what I've heard so far this era.

The video's so tame. Why talk about it? ;)
XXXO. OH how brilliant is this chorus? Very brilliant.

She's unique and different, and i hope that she's successful again with this album.
