MIA joins refugees in video for Borders

MIA has shared the clip for her new single Borders

Earlier this week MIA shared her latest single Borders. The song questions the politics of immigration and its video is suitably charged.

The clip, directed by MIA herself, sees the singer at a border surrounded by refugees struggling to climb huge fences before she sets sail on a hugely overcrowded boat. It paints a stark picture of the issues facing the world’s displaced population.

Borders will appear on M.I.A.’s forthcoming studio album, Matahdatah. Watch the video in the player below via Apple Music.
