M.I.A. TALKS BECK'S BOTTLE DESIGNS; MATANGI ALBUM NEWS




Nicki Garbaj isn't the only artist who is getting paid by putting her stank on a corporate beverage. Her Give Me All Your Luvin' and Super Bowl co-rap star M.I.A. has decided to focus less on creating controversy and more into lending her creative expertise into designing a limited edition  label for Becks Beer.

Here's what M.I.A. told SPIN about her inspirations behind the label: “I was inspired by some sort of new, something abstract. A new beginning. It was important to go there and start fresh, just letting go of everything. You get attached to what you were inspired by before and finding inspiration in what it is.”

And while it's great that she's finding other ways to be creative, you'd be a fool to not have asked the 36-year-old what's going on with Matangi, the follow-up to her 2010 album  /\/\/\Y/\. “I’ve been working on the songs by myself for awhile, and towards the end I got [producer] Switch to sort of bring it together and contribute new songs for it as well,” she said. “But I’m trying to work with tons of people, I don’t really wanna say any names because I haven’t actually chosen what songs are going on it yet.”
