In the midst of her ongoing scrap with the New York Times, M.I.A. has taken just a few minutes to remind us that her principle pursuit is still indeed music by unveiling the cover for her new album, // /Y/.
As Consequence of Sound points out, the new cover was revealed today (June 1) and is totally up for individual interpretation. We see a fireplace cooking gold bars, smoke rising in the form of half-viewed Youtube progress bars. You?
In related news, M.I.A. recently told Nylon Magazine that "Google and Facebook were developed by the CIA." It's just a hint paranoid, but let's start giving the girl the benefit of the doubt, shall we?
// /Y/ is still due July 13 via N.E.E.T. Recordings.
