The musical similarities are thanks to Switch, who also works with M.I.A.
This is the original song...
Decidedly punk, musically.
So this is basically what M.I.A. would prolly sound like without producers like Switch.
Diplo also worked with Santi.
Seems like the remixes get a lot more popular than the original versions, cuz genre wise they're WAY different.
Maya talks like she CREATED Diplo, but he was working before they were together, and he probably made his best songs in that era.
This was from 2004. Apparently they met in 2003. This is Diplo's best era for sure but I'm not sure how much influence she really had on him.
