On the experimental track, M.I.A. revives her rebellious spirit. “Back on track (I’m on a new level) / You better go check (I still be that rebel),” she raps before addressing the current climate. “Life changing, it’s a strange thing / Are you ready for what the time gon’ bring?”
This is the first new music from M.I.A. since her 2016 album AIM, which was said to be her final album and preceded her 2018 documentary Matangi/Maya/M.I.A. In January, she announced her return by teasing a dance-ready track.
