M.I.A. just might leak her own album

M.I.A. says she’s “on the verge” of leaking her new album.

The politically charged electro-pop femcee fired off a string of tweets Monday alluding to ongoing frustrations with her new record.

“I hate it when big American artists take from me and my work and refugee sentiments from my work before it's released,” she first wrote.

It’s unclear whom the British-born, Sri Lankan-bred artist was accusing of biting her work, but she followed up that tweet with one saying she wanted to leak the record “especially when I get told to ‘Fight ur own battle.’”

Earlier this year, M.I.A. took to Twitter to announce she was handing her “last LP” to her American label, Interscope.

“I would love to leak it. I wake up every day and think I'm gonna leak it,” she told fans on Periscope of the album, her follow-up to 2013’s “Matangi.”

What’s been keeping her from releasing the record herself? Label support, she says.

“If I carry on making music, then I would do that, but I also want to find an album where I can actually make my label work for me,” she said at the time.

M.I.A. previously said the album would arrive in the summer.
