Happy Mother Effin' Friday: Here's a New M.I.A. Song Called "Platforms"

Happy weekend, happy life.

Hey, you're not doing anything at work right now, so welcome to Noisey, the best music website on the planet. Here's a new M.I.A. song called "Platforms." Considering most new rap music these days sounds like you're on your third level of Super Saiyan, the laid back nature and lush melodies of "Platforms" is a bit refreshing. A co-worker described it as "the opening of an anime," which is as accurate as anything I'll come up with here. We have no idea what M.I.A. plans to do with this song or if this means there's a new album, but hey, we're talking about M.I.A. again. When you woke up today, I bet you didn't think that was a possibility. But, yet, here we are. Life is crazy, right? Makes you think. Anyways, I don't even know what I'm typing anymore. You probably stopped reading already. Here's the song. Listen to it.
