அரசியல் பாடலென மிகவும் விவாதிக்கப்பட்ட இப்பாடலில், செக் ஷேர்ட்டுக்களோடு, ரிபன்களால் இழுத்துக்கட்டப்பட்ட பின்னல்களுள்ள பெண்கள் எவரைக் குறிப்பிடுகின்றதெனச் சொல்லத்தேவையில்லை.

மாயா அமெரிக்கா வருவதற்கான விஸா பத்து மாதங்களாய் தடுக்கப்பட்டதற்கும், இன்னும் அவரது பெயர் சிவப்பு நாடாவில் இருப்பதற்கும் இந்தப்பாடலே முக்கியகாரணம் எனச்சொல்லப்படுகின்றது.

என்ன நாடாவை யார் அவருக்கு போட்டாலும் மாயாவின் வெற்றியை யாராலும் தடுக்க முடியாது.

NEW YORK–Though M.I.A. has been hailed by critics since she made her debut in 2005, her fiery lyrics, which speak against corrupt political systems and talk of revolution and violence, have always ensured her a place far outside of music's mainstream – until recently.

Her song "Paper Planes," about the frustrations of immigrants, became a hit after its use in Pineapple Express, and now M.I.A. has gone from underground artist to commercial success. Her ranking on music's "It" list shot up Wednesday when the song was nominated for a Grammy for Record of the Year.

But in a recent interview, the British-born, Sri Lankan-reared rapper said it's taken some time getting used to her new position in pop.

"I came out on some sort of political edge and I was inspired by the politics that were going on at the time," says M.I.A., who's expecting her first child in February with fiancé Benjamin Brewer. "I never thought it would get accepted and I was gonna be like, commercially accepted, or accepted by the masses, because that was the point: people who thought like me were outsiders.''

M.I.A., whose music is an eclectic mix of raps, world beats and whirring sonics, first arrived on the scene with Arular. The CD was as much a political statement as a musical one, as she referenced Sri Lanka's Tamil Tigers (her father was part of the group).

Partly because of those ties, she was denied a long-term work visa to enter the United States for a time, receiving one in 2007, when she also released Kala.

That CD was even more influenced by world affairs after she travelled to places like India and Africa to record it.

"Paper Planes," which is featured in the acclaimed movie Slumdog Millionaire, has a dreamy world beat, but its lyrics have a darker tone.

"People could say, `Oh my God, this song is so violent,' but at the same time, there was a war in Iraq. I felt like certain people made so much money from selling ammunition and military weapons and stuff, and killed a million people, and it wasn't even an issue that was raised," says M.I.A.

"For a song like that to be listed in the Top 10, it made me really happy," she adds.

She says she doesn't consider herself a commercial artist and credits her success to people becoming more open: "The world is becoming more conscious.''

And she says fans don't have to worry about her softening her style. But she allows impending motherhood may provide new material and perhaps a new outlook on life.

"I always kind of made music from quite an angry place and I always thought it was more macho," she says. "(But) I don't want to be (tough) like a dude. I wanna be a good woman.''
