Free Music Notes for Arular
Free Music Review: rhythmic, textured, danceable electronic music
Hit: 4 Stars
i love this music, but i can see how some people wouldn't. i guess reading through the reviews here says the same thing: this doesn't try to be the kind of music my mother would like (or some of my coworkers). but that must be obvious if you listen to the samples amazon provide.
but otherwise, this is pretty sweet - it strikes a nice balance between playing with new ideas/sounds on the one hand and keeping a steady groove on the other. "commerical experimental" in a good way - and i think that's a very challenging target.
as for the politics and trying to second guess whether this woman is "for real" - it doesn't matter unless you don't like the music. good music doesn't need to (and usually doesn't) match my politics. why on earth should it? if you don't like the music, fair enough. but to argue that you don't like music because of the attitude or the politics - what's with that? you're confusing music with something else, i think.

What can I say about this album that hasn't already been said? Nothing. Awesome album on every level.Free Music Review: finally good dance music which is not crappy black eyed peas and trl stuff
Hit: 5 Stars
i ussually like experimental music, and if it is hip hop it has to be experimental to. This fits in with experimental hip hop, because her beats are more fresh then kanye west, and are as good or a little bit better then MF Doom's beats. And are almost as good as DJ Shadow's. This whole album is amazing music. From the skit. Then to pull up the people, "slang tang thats the M.I.A thang, i got the bombs to make you blow i got the beats to make you bang bang bang." If you ask me that song is better then the overated "My Humps" song by the crappy blackeyedpeas. If you are sick of normal dance hiphop and want something that you can even listening to in the car or working M.I.A is for you.Free Music Review: Fresh!
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this album. The sound is fresh, it makes me want to dance and I love the mix of sounds. Well produced, good lyrics, great freshman album, can't wait to see what M.I.A. does next.
