M.I.A. & Diplo Reuniting For New Single “Bird Song”
It looks like M.I.A. and Diplo have reunited for a new track called “Bird Song,” which will presumably be included on M.I.A.’s upcoming new album A.I.M. She teased the collaboration earlier today, along with a similar graphic that touted the song as a co-production with another one of her frequent collaborators, Blaqstarr.
It’s the pair’s first collaboration since the one-time romantic partners worked together on 2010’s Maya. Following that, they had a contentious and convoluted falling out that extended to at least last year when they were trading barbs back-and-forth on Twitter.
The new track is set to be released on 8/12. A.I.M. is supposedly due out 9/9.
