Fans of Cher Lloyd have a reason to celebrate!
The 26-year-old singer, songwriter, and model has just released “M.I.A” as the lead single off her third studio album.
The track, co-written alongside Morgan Avenue, Jeremia Jones, Stevie Appleton and Gia Koka, mixes elements from pop and hip-hop.
It’s an infectious song where Cher talks about wanting to leave the party her friends dragged her out to , and go escape with the guy she’s had her eye on all throughout the party.
“M.I.A” has a fashionable music video directed by Raja Virdi (Sam Smith, John Newman, James Morrison).
“I wanted the video to mirror exactly that. I wanted the vibe to feel playful, expressive and fun. Every look gives a great insight into who I am and my personality” explained the “Want u back” singer.
Lyrics:
We could go, go, go M.I.A (Aye)
Catch me on my waves all-day
Whatcha wanna say to me (Yeah)
Catch me on my waves (OK!)
We could go, go, go M.I.A (Aye)
Catch me on my waves all-day
Whatcha wanna say to me (Yeah)
Catch me on my waves
Let’s make a quick getaway
This party’s shit anyway
Or we could go M.I.A
Tell me, tell me what you say
‘Cause I, I’ve been bored out of my mind
Sitting here all night
And you know I got my eye on you
No lie, no lie
I’ve been vibing to you all of this time
Don’t say goodbye
We’re out here, so you know
You and I could be somewhere catching waves
I say, “Hi”, now let’s go M.I.A (Ooh)
We could go, go, go M.I.A (Aye)
Catch me on my waves all-day
Whatcha wanna say to me (Yeah)
Catch me on my waves (OK!)
They keep spoiling my Saturday
Didn’t wanna dance anyway
Everybody here all the same
But we can do things differently
‘Cause I, I’ve been bored out of my mind
Sitting here all night
And you know, I got my eye on you
No lie, no lie
I’ve been vibing to you all of this time
Don’t say goodbye
We’re out here, so you know
You and I could be somewhere catching waves
I say, “Hi”, now let’s go M.I.A (Let’s go M.I.A) (Ooh)
There’s a place, I could recommend (Oh-oh)
We could smoke one more again (Yeah)
Kinda happy, that I lost my friends
Wasn’t gonna stay till the end
‘Cause I-I-I, I’ve been bored out of my mind
Sittin’ here all night
And you know, I got my eye on you
No lie, no lie
I’ve been vibing to you all of this time
Don’t say goodbye
We’re out here, so you know
You and I could be somewhere catching waves
I say, “Hi”, now let’s go M.I.A
We could go, go, go M.I.A (Aye)
Catch me on my waves all-day
Whatcha wanna say to me (Yeah)
Catch me on my waves (OK!)
We could go, go, go M.I.A (Aye)
Catch me on my waves all-day
Whatcha wanna say to me (Yeah)
Catch me on my waves (OK!)
