Bigmouths Strike Again: Diddy's Bentley Edition
This ain't no mud hut, this ain't no disco... Who's mad as hell, and not gonna take this anymore?
"You know, hip-hop came out of having the right stuff, and you had to have a slavery and you had to have a war and you had to have all these things in order for Sean 'Puffy' Combs to be singing about fucking Bentleys. You had to have that journey. That takes a long time, and in America it took three generations for that to happen. And for me to come from a mud hut and to be here and shouting in front of a disco, it took me 15 years. And that's all I represent. Everything boiled down is that, that's all it is. If I get it back to Africa, this is what I've accomplished."Guess the gob, then take the jump.
Who knew that breakfast with Maya would turn into a long-ranging, rambling bitchfest? Not the interviewer, who gets an unexpected earful from the fiery, Sri Lankan goddess. Sounds like she's pissed at Diplo. And Pitchfork. And lots of other stuff. Couple of interesting points buried in there, about politics, sexism and celebrity, and the third world. Guess we can't blame her for feeling put-upon by the constant Diplo associations -- despite the awesomeness of "Paper Planes" (What? He's her ex? She's looking for a husband? Get Ansari on the phone!). But an unprovoked shot at Diddy's Bentley? M.I.A., you have some splainin' to do!

Good to know racial inequality is over. Suprised this wasn't bigger news.

paul thompson is the worst writer at pitchfork by a long way. He sensationalises everything and constantly tries to be funny but it's just shit. His writing is symptomatic of P4K's massive drop in quality and relevance.
Score = 0
my gosh. I read the article and the idiot who interviewed her wrote in a way that made him look calm and collected in contrast to the rabid MIA. He should be fired. He is a complete cunt and Im sure he kept quiet the whole time. She had valid grounds for her behavior and alot of what she said. Alot of you folks that post here just look for the cheap insult; you should read and understand before you post stupidly.
Score = 0
she touched some great points that were completely overshadowed by the fact that she rambled. a lot.
not an extraordinarily effective speaker, i guess, but whatever; i think we can all walk away agreeing that my left ass cheek had more to do with arular than diplo did. maybe p4k should raise a white flag and kati llewellyn should pull her head out of her submissive ass and take some notes from my new favourite third world female.
