Seems fans have been waiting forever for the return of M.I.A. and it seems your musical prayers have been answered via her producer Diplo.

In a recent interview to MTV from the South by Southwest Film and Music Festival Diplo speaks about the progress of her album saying:

The album is cool. I think that she’s just wrapping up the mixing and stuff. I was in New York on Thursday, before I came here, I was mixing down the last single for it,” he said. “It’s a record I did for her that’s sort of … you can’t even explain]what it would sound like.”

“It’s sort of like an Animal Collective/gospel/ giant-drum record. And she’s singing on it. I think you might expect some rap/club music, but nothing on there. It’s more of a heavy record. All kinds of different sounds. We did, like, a punk thing. … It’s weird.”

He spoke on one of the songs he produced called “Tell Me Why”. He stated:

“It’s a big, kinda giant-sounding record. … It sounds like some Wall of Sound, Motown kind of thing. It’s just me and Switch producing the album, and Blaqstarr did a couple of tracks, too.”

Thus far there will be no featured guests on the album just M.I.A. doing what she does best, making music that we can wild out too.

Stay tuned to WhutsGood for updates on the album and it’s release.
