DAP Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 https://pitchfork.com/news/mia-reveals-new-album-title-shares-new-song-the-one-listen/ Quote I had, like, a weird spiritual experience. One of the first people I told was Richard Russell actually. And it was, like, back in 2017. And, since then, my head has been in a totally different place…. Being a Tamil and being a Hindu, I was very comfortable that I’d arrived finding myself. Which is, I think, going to be weird for America to process. But I had a vision and I saw the vision of Jesus Christ. It’s very, creatively, it’s a very crazy thing because it turned my world upside down. Because everything I thought and believed was no longer, like, the case. And I think that was maybe a sign that something major was going to happen in the world, you know, and that people were needing to be introduced to this concept. But I always found the concept of Christianity quite basic compared to… wow this is gonna be shocking if people go “Maya calls Christianity basic.” Lowe responded, “I think people are going to be more focusing on the fact that, I think, and, correct me if I’m wrong, you’re saying that you’re a born-again Christian now.” M.I.A. answered: I am. I’m not going to lie. And then when I had this vision, it turned my world upside down. I kind of couldn’t let go of the Tamil side. I think that’s why 50% of the record is sort of like that. Because I’m still me. Like, that’s still my language. And those are still my tools to be able to create beats like that or a sound like that, you know. But I think the message was just to get to a peaceful place.

Pikachoo Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 wonderful to hear! I am so happy for her. I know her mother became a Christian back in 1990, and would always try and encourage her children to attend church with her. And you know what, people clown on Justin for being a Christian and bla bla bla, but Justin walks the walk. yes he does. he seems like a genuinely nice guy, who is trying to do right by his wife and by everyone around him. Since he became a born again Christian, I haven't heard any scoops about him being mean, or cheating on Bailey, or anything. so yes, you can be christian and be good. I know it's hard to believe it when you see a woman as wicked as Nicki, but you have to understand Nicki's point of view; she grew up in an unstable home. her father was an alcoholic who burned her house down; her husband a rapist and murder, her husband a pedophile, her entourage all convicts. guess what, I'd be pissed at God too if that's how my life turned out. Mother Maraj did not protect young Nicki. no she didnt. im sorry to say this, but Carol Maraj needs to be put in prison for the type of environment she let her children grow up in. child negligence. if i was their neighbor in the 80s, I would have called child services on her. I honestly feel really bad for Nicki. this poor girl. full of talent (Nicki is extremely talented at the end of the day) surrounded in chaos. Little Nicki just wanted to express her creativity but instead she had people making fun of her for wanting to be a broadway actress, and a mother who did not care one bit about her. I'm sorry Nicki. I'm sorry for the childhood you had to go through. I'm sorry that you never felt loved. But you can break this cycle; you have a beautiful child. You give that child every ounce of love inside you. I wish you nothing but the best, dear Nicki. pikachoo
Keter Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Maya has always had a juvenile view of the world. It doesn’t surprise me she saw Jesus in a potato chip or some **** and decided to be a Christian. Only the swiftly-approaching-50 Paper Planes chanteuse.

Invisibility Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 The only way she'll be forgiven is if she delivers remixed choral music or some eclectic ****

teedhooks Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Ok but can she come out as a born-again creator of good music next?
