M.I.A asks fans for help with album

Musicians are always looking for new ways to promote their new album, so they may look with interest at an original idea from M.I.A.

The singer-songwriter is currently gearing up for the release of her next album and has just published a complete tracklisting on her Twitter page.

However, the record is still without a title, so she is asking her fans to come up a decent name.

Suggestions from the punters are already coming in, which suggests the effort to drum up interest in the album is working.

Album producer Rusko confirmed that he and M.I.A had come up with a working title, but decided not to stick to it.

"We wanted to call it Complications because it took so long," he told BBC 6 Music.

"It wasn't a nightmare, but we're both perfectionists."

The upcoming record will be the third release from M.I.A, following the 2005 album Arular and 2007's Kala.
