M.I.A. has been long at work on her next album Matangi and it seems like we will finally get the final product. Her label has held up the release, at one point calling it "too positive." Earlier today, she tweeted "If interscope takes longer i can always leak this next week and make a new one by the time they are ready." Since then, the label has announced the album's official release date to be November 5th. We've been following developments on this LP all the way back to April 2012 when she dropped a teaser video for "Come Walk With Me." Check that out below and catch up with M.I.A.'s other new tracks "Only 1 U" and "Bring The Noize."
