M.I.A. took to Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show Wednesday to release "Foreign Friend" from her upcoming A.I.M. album, which will be out September 9. The track features Dexta Daps and as M.I.A. told Zane it's about their friendship, and her friendships with others in the Caribbean. The singer said she went back there to see some pals and all the kids were telling her she needed to record with Dexta Daps. "I just wanted to do something that would make my friends happy," she said.
