article/interview with M.I.A. on pitchfork:
3. M.I.A.'s father, for whom Arular is named, is a revolutionary with links to the Tamil Tigers. Although her lyrics are salt and peppered with violent imagery, M.I.A. has no terrorist affiliation. But politics follow her wherever she goes, and she likes it that way. (sure)
8. Bloggers really love her, but she has yet to make Billboard's acquaintance. (dissensus?)
also: they use matt's "shanty house" term as well.
