Don’t play the stupid game,
’cause I’m a different kind of blogger!

I know damn well you’ve been parading around the house with your pom-poms out all week cheering on The Holy Madge ever since she premiered “Give Me All Your Luvin” (feat. M.I.A. & Nicki Minaj) during her Halftime Show at the Super Bowl.

Now, I want you to get your paws on a physical copy! (This physical attraction, it’s a chemical attraction…)

MuuMuse is proud to be giving away 5 copies of Madonna’s “Give Me All Your Luvin” (feat. M.I.A. & Nicki Minaj) single.

To enter to win, just tweet me with the following phrase:

L-U-V, @MuuMuse! Y-O-U, you wanna give me that #Madonna single? http://www.muumuse.com/?p=27641

5 winners will be randomly selected and notified on Tuesday, February 21. This is a standard CD single–no remixes. US entries only.

Let’s forget about time…and dance our lives away! Good L-U-C-K!

L-U-V, Madonna!

Madonna’s upcoming twelfth studio album, MDNA, will be released on March 26. (iTunes)

Live fast, die young, bad girls do it well…

The magnificent M.I.A. comes guns blazin’ back onto the scene in 2012 with the Danja-produced “Bad Girls,” a track originally featured on her off-the-charts brilliant 2011 mixtape, Vicki Leekx.

The accompanying Romain Gavras-directed video, which was released earlier today on Pitchfork, finds the genre-smashing British femcee getting flossy and flying free in the desert, racing dusty cars and pulling some rather insane stunts along the way. Oh…just chilling sideways on top of a moving car, you?

Whether she’s ra-ra-sis-boom-bah-ing for Madonna or just hangin’ tight off the hood of a car, M.I.A. is simply too cool for school–and I love every minute of it.

“Bad Girls” was released on January 31. (iTunes)

You probably weren’t aware of this, but Madonna has a new song and video out called “Give Me All Your Luvin (feat. M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj.)”

It’s really one of the best things you’ll see all day (if not all month, if not all year, if not ever in your life), so I’ve decided to break it down into small segments of flawlessness to get a better understanding of the inner workings of this stunning Megaforce-directed production.

And away we go…

Watch the video for Madonna‘s “Give Me All Your Luvin” (feat. M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj)” now–full review to come shortly!

“Give Me All Your Luvin” was released on February 3. (iTunes)

Are Y-O-U ready for Madonna‘s “Give Me All Your Luvin,” featuring M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj? Get out your pom poms–it’s almost time!

Just minutes ago, the song went live on iTunes Japan (it’s not being released officially until February 3.) And now, we’ve got the extended snippet from iTunes! So far, it’s no different from the demo–aside from a better, more filled out chant (“L-U-V, Madonna!”) and the sneak peek of Nicki’s rap during the breakdown: “I’m Roman/I’m a barbarian, I’m Conan!” Mizz Minaj roars.

Although I assumed the final version would have had a bit more robust production (thus the danger of early leaks…), I still L-U-V everything about it! Bring on the full song, M!

“Give Me All Your Luvin” will be released on February 3. (iTunes)

Forget the Superbowl special guest drama earlier today–new music from Madonna is nearly upon us!

In a newly released teaser clip, we get a rare glimpse of the Queen putting in work at a NYC recording studio with Martin Solveig and M.I.A., acting sassy behind the soundboard and getting silly in the booth. Just look at Madge dorky dancing all up on Miss Maya! It’s so cool to be uncool, as a certain Icon might sing.

Plus: Hear that in the background? Yup–it’s the newly mastered version of “Gimme All Your Luvin’”! What a tease.

Get ready to take some M.D.N.A., y’all!

M.D.N.A. will be released in March. (iTunes)

Looks like working on Madonna‘s upcoming album isn’t the only thing M.I.A.‘s got on her mind lately.

The always innovative London-born singer-songwriter is currently preparing to release “Bad Girls,” the Danja-produced (Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake) cut off of her truly sensational (and free!) 2011 mixtape, Vicki Leekx. (I’m still strutting/mean mugging down the street to “Gen -N-E-Y” on a daily basis.)

The full song will premiere on Monday, January 30 on Pitchfork, while the Romain Gavras-directed video (who also did the terrifying “Born Free” ginger genocide video, eep!) will premiere on February 3 at Vice.

The official single cover for the song is featured above. Clearly, M.I.A. hasn’t let up on her love affair with her 1996 Geocities-inspired, eye-gauge worthy aesthetic as of late. Oh Maya, you controversial figure, you!

But seriously, this beat bumps hard. I’m so excited for M.I.A. to come back with power, power!

My chain hits my chest when I’m banging on the radio…

What’s that you say? Yup, Santi’s back!

Kicking off the promotion for her upcoming album with a bang (and a whole lot of dizzying doodle effects!), Santigold has just unleashed her “Big Mouth,” the first song and video from her long-awaited sophomore follow-up, Master Of My Make-Believe.

Produced by Switch & Portuguese electro-dance outfit Buraka Som Sistema, “Big Mouth” is pumped full of tribal drums, frantic electro bleeps and Kuduro rhythms, giving off big M.I.A. and Major Lazer vibes. (No surprises there–Major Lazer is the collaboration between Switch & Diplo, and M.I.A.’s worked with Buraka Som Sistema in the past.) As a result, you might even hear some of Beyonce‘s “Run The World (Girls)” and Nicola Roberts‘ “Beat Of My Drum” thrown in too!

“Got a big mouth, big mouth…you said enough!” Santi snaps during the maddeningly manic track, recalling the healthy helpng of sass delivered on Santigold‘s “Shove It.”

We already know that Santi’s a genre-hopping chameleon, so it’s difficult to make any real predictions about the sound of the new album just yet. But so far, it sounds like Make-Believe‘s going to be one mayjah dance party!

Liking what you hear? Well, good: She’s giving away for free on her official website. (iTunes)
