M.I.A. has released her new song "Freedun" featuring Zayn Malik. Premiered on BBC radio on Thursday, September 1, the song will appear on the Sri Lankan rapper's forthcoming fifth and final studio album "AIM".

"Bass bass, bass bass/ I'm a swagger man/ Rolling in my swagger van/ From the People's Republic Of Swagistan/ Free-de-de-dum, free-dom/ Free-de-de-dum, free-dom/ Free-de-de-dum, free-dom/ I'm M.I.A.," she sings.

Zayn croons in the chorus, "All the stars are still shining/ But you're the only one/ I see I can feel when your heart beats, yeah/ But you can't keep your eyes off me."

Editors' Pick

"I made this song a long time ago, and it was too mainstream sounding for me. If I was going to have a collaboration and have someone like Zayn, this was the perfect song," M.I.A. says of the song, "It sort of takes me out of my comfort zone, and it kind of takes him out of his a little bit as well."

"AIM", also including "Borders", "Go Off" and "Bird Song" featuring Diplo and Blaqstarr, is scheduled to be released on September 9.
