M.I.A Releases Free Wikileaks Inspired Mixtape Download

December 31, 2010
M.I.A Releases Free Wikileaks Inspired Mixtape DownloadM.I.A has released a free mixtape inspired by the recent Wikileaks scandal.

The 18-track LP, entitled ‘VickiLeekx’, is available to download from vikileekx.com, and includes collaborations with dubstep producers Diplo, Rusko and Switch.

The singer said Wikileaks editor-in-chief Julian Assange was the inspiration behind the release.

The non-profit organisation was behind the recent controversial exopses of alleged private American documents, which included a reference to Lady Gaga.

M.I.A released her latest album 'Maya' earlier this year.
