M.I.A. è pronta a pubblicare il seguito del suo ultimo disco Matangi, uscito nel 2013: l’artista cingalese trapiantata a Londra ha infatti di recente annunciato la data di pubblicazione e il titolo del suo quinto disco, intitolato AIM e in uscita il prossimo 9 settembre.

Ad anticipare il progetto è il singolo Go off, un pezzo clamoroso prodotto dall’artista in collaborazione con il dj Skrillex e Blaqstarr: siamo davanti ad una canzone in puro stile M.I.A. dal sapore electro-etnico. Qui sotto trovate il video ufficiale e il testo della canzone. Lasciatemi dire che lei è proprio su un altro livello.

Testo

[Intro]
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong

[Verse 1]
People love position
So I stay way up on a level
Like my name is Neymar and you know I’m not normal
There is no competition
I’m gonna talk and you gonna listen
I’m on ten like men, even better than them
Yeah I don’t lose focus like a German called Sven
My third eye’s open and my focus ain’t joking
Yeah You got it wrong, cause my focus is so strong
[Chorus]
Run-pama pama pa-pama pama pama
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
Go off on em
Go off on em
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong

[Verse 2]
Yeah I’m pressing buttons
Dropping pins on positions
Cause my words go far
And this rain is so foreign
You blow the place I live in while
Watch I could keep it going
Go off on em
Go off on em
So check up on your messages
Know what the message is
Like aliens in villages
We’re here for all ages
Fans back home
Got my tracks bang on
Yeah you got it wrong
Cause my focus is so strong

[Chorus]
Run pama pama pa-pama pama pama
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
Go off on em
Go off on em
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
Go off on em
Go off on em
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong

[Bridge]
At least you tell your children I came from London
Start talking about me long time like she was random
When I was in your life fella, I was hella bomb
But I had to go off just to stay strong

[Chorus]
Run pama pama pa-pama pama pama
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
Go off on em
Go off on em
No focus lost, I concentrate
And now you got it wrong
Go off on em
Go off on em
