M.I.A. has shared the video for new track “Borders”, which surfaced last week. The self-directed clip sees M.I.A. join a group of refugees as they climb wire fences, crowd on to tiny boats, and wade into the sea. In one scene, she wears a Paris Saint German soccer shirt with sponsor Fly Emirates’ logo replaced with “Fly Pirates.” Watch it below, via Apple Music. Update (11/27 8:53 a.m.): “Borders” will appear on M.I.A.’s forthcoming studio album, Matahdatah, a press release confirms.
