M.I.A. has unveiled a new video for her Matangi track “Double Bubble Trouble,” which she directed herself.
The music video—the first M.I.A. has directed since Elastica’s “Mad Dog God Dam” back in the ‘00s—starts off with an ad of sorts for homemade weaponry using 3-D printers, leading into various shots of youths holding said weaponry, dancing, making out, being shirtless. You know, just your everyday youngster stuff.
Check it out below.
