Bad Moon Rising

After delivering the gritty "Born Free" you may expect more of MIA's signature style, however her latest is anything but. "XXXO" is definitely her most mainstream to date with its sexual context and pop back-up vocals.



Given that a chopped up "Ghost Rider" by Suicide was used as the primary sample for "Born Free", this more accessible single is a bit of a surprise and a disappointment...Is this the sign of a junior slump?
