A Quote by M.I.A.
People say we're similar with Lady Gaga, that we both mix all these things in the pot and spit them out differently, but she spits it out exactly the same!

She's not progressive, but she's a good mimic.

And she doesn't have to do anything for it, which is why I say this cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life.
