Esau Mwamwaya x MIA x Radioclit make you Rain Dance
<< Back
Collaboration nation Sep 08, 2008 at 11:12
If this keeps up, the entire Lifelounge homepage will be covered in our favourite ladies. M.I.A., Esau Mwamwaya and Radioclit have teamed up again after the newer version of 'Get it Up' for a track from Malwai-born, London-based Esau Mwamwaya and Radioclit's upcoming album.

'Rain Dance' heavily features M.I.A. and the rest of the album is said to have appearances from Santogold, Marina from Bonde Do Role and Vampire Weekend. In fact head to Mwamwaya's myspace to hear a fabulous reworked version of Vampire Weekend's 'Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa'. Freaky good.

In the meantime, here's Esau Mwamwaya, M.I.A. and Radioclit's 'Rain Dance':

A ot of blogs are calling mia a terrorist and want not so to clear this fiasco up she sent out a facebook message that reads: READING THE COMMENTS MADE ME WANT TO SPEAK OUT. BUT I WAS DENIED ACESS TO MAKE COMMENTS, ONLY THE WELL CONNECTED INSIDERS ARE ALLOWED TO COMMENT AND THIS IS THE CASE WITH SO MANY OF THESE BLOGS TALKING SHIT ABOUT ME. NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO TELL THE TRUTH, AND SET THE FACTS STRAIGHT. SO HERE IS THE COMMENT I WANTED TO MAKE! THE TRUTH TO WHY I LEFT TO SRILANKA WAS ... A. I COULD , I WAS BORN IN LONDON. B. EVERY TOWN AND VILLAGE MY MOTHER TOOK US TO WOULD GET BURNED DOWN BY THE ARMY. IN THE END EVEN THE TAMILS WOULDN'T LET US STAY THERE AND AFTER MY SCHOOL WAS SET ON FIRE BY THE ARMY, I HAD NOTHING TO DO THERE, AND WAS REALLY FUCKING BOARD. C. FUCK YOU TO ALL THESE EVIL PEOPLE TWISTING THE TRUTH. YOU DONT SPEAK FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN SPEAK FOR MY SELF. D.WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS THAT YOU DONT HAVE TO BE A TAMIL OR A LTTE SUPPORTER TO KNOW THAT BURNING DOWN A SCHOOL WITH 800 KIDS IN THE NAME OF FIGHTING TERRORISM IS NOT COOL. I AM NOT A LTTE SUPPORTER. I WAS JUST AN 8 YEAR OLD THAT DIDNT GET KILLED ON THAT DAY, THATS ALL. I'M A MUSICIAN WHO DOESNT WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN, ESPECIALLY IN THE MUSIC PRESS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HEARING THIS EVERYTHING IN ME WAS KILLED BUT MY ART IS NOT DEAD! i love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx m.i.a
