The Story Behind: MIA - Kala, Ep 8

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. MIA travels the world to record her 2nd studio album Kala. In this episode the boys discuss how sampling creatively moves art forward, how borrowing lazily undermines your message, and how club music has always made them feel old, even when they were young.
