    Episode 84: M.I.A. is the Katniss Everdeen of Hip Hop Dec 03, 2013
    Show notes

    TFT Logo 2013Ryan and Matt consider M.I.A.’s Matangi, discussing why music I like is always already “indie,” why the backlash to Matangi makes us want to like the album more, the library of norms of a pop music listener, song structure in pop music, the Matangi leitmotif, the library of fuxing, why M.I.A.’s critics are tools of the man, how structural power really works, and what you should do with the poop on your plate.
