M.I.A. threatens to leak her new album
She's not happy
M.I.A. took to Twitter to say she was close to leaking her fifth album.
It seems she's frustrated by her record label and the inability to get a visa to promote it in the United States.
I am handing my last LP in to my American label this week. It'll be up to them if its released.I don't have visa 4 states to promote or spk!

Rumored to be featuring work from Skrillex, the album was supposedly slated for a release this July.
Although now deleted, she also tweeted: "I hate it when big American artists take from me and my work and refugee sentiments from my work before it's released."
