Shock: M.I.A. Not Retiring
August 28 2008 11:55 PST
Oh the shock - M.I.A.'s not retiring, in fact she's doing the opposite. The rapper/singer had announced her retirement earlier this year, but after the runaway success of her single Paper Planes, she's back in the studio! She's been quoted in Entertainment Weekly as saying:
"Well, [Bonaroo] it was my last ever show. And it still is. I stopped touring after that and I didn’t want to make music again. I was quite happy to just leave it all behind. I was happy with what I had achieved. Now, with the success of Paper Planes, there’s pull for me to make another record. Even my mum believes in me more [laughs]. It’s a nice encouragement. But I was planning my life as a fishing woman on the outskirts of Cambodia. That’s a joke."
And yet another star un-retires from the game! More M.I.A. music on the way!
