Drake had "YOLO," and now M.I.A. has "Y.A.L.A." That's the name of her latest Matangi track, which the pop singer has shared via an abridged preview clip.

It's a booty-shaking club banger, although this clip clocks in at less than a minute and a half in length. M.I.A. tweeted, "If you only live once why we keep doing the same shit?" While "YOLO" stands for "you only live once," "Y.A.L.A." means "you always live again."

The song will be given as an immediate download to those who pre-order Matangi starting on October 22.

Matangi is out on November 5 via Interscope.
