M.I.A. Reveals New Album Name, Release Date

Rolling Stone reports that M.I.A.'s hotly anticipated second album will be called Kala and will be in stores June 26 via Interscope. Yes, "Bird Flu" will be on it, as will collaborations with Diplo and Timbaland.

None of this information has been confirmed yet, but the release date at least seems remotely accurate, as it falls between M.I.A.'s two confirmed live performances, taking place at the Sasquatch Festival in George, Washington on May 26 and at the Virgin Festival in Toronto on September 8-9. So she's probably going to put out an album sometime this summer, right?
