M.I.A. Faces Backlash, Border Themes in Birmingham Show

Rapper M.I.A. faced a hostile crowd at a recent show, getting booed for mentioning her skipped track and joking about her undocumented status. Shes no stranger to controversy, with past anti-vax talks and a clothing line that claimed to block five G waves. Her hit song Paper Planes, with its border-crossing themes, added irony to the situation. Kid Cudi, her headliner, has publicly split from Kanye West over his pro-Trump views. The tour continues on May 5th in Birmingham, Alabama, with Big Boi and A-Trak as guests.
