The leaks from MIA's album are becoming increasingly more industrial—"Steppin Up," streamed from Zane Lowe's Radio 1 show, sounds like Russian constructivist dubstep imploding into drum n bass—but then industrial's concept is well suited for taking the piss out of Big Brother. (Just ask Nitzer Ebb.) Her frustrated-identity pop jam "XXXO" is much gentler in the scheme of things, and the newly added Jay-Z verse kind of sounds like Hov's answer to "Jenny from the Block."
