A song from the new M.I.A. album "Kala" has samples from the Dalapathi song "Kattu Kuyilu." Listen here.

after quiet a search on her Here is review of this album where Ilaiyaraaja is mentioned
http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/...eviews_rssfeed
And after listening to some of her songs, She has got some stuff is wat i would say! Hip-hop is her forte and she excels well especially the Track 'Bird Flu' from the album 'Kala' is crossover between tamil folk rhythms (may be this is also sampled from some other Raaja's Compositions) and global hip-hop. Well there has to be someone like also to introduce our sounds and music to the world.
but for now there is nothing else in this genre to beat 'Elephunk theme' and 'YogiB-Natchatra' remix of Raaja songs.

rajasaranam, before I read your comment, even I thought she was an alien to tamil music, I didn't attempt to read who she is. Anyway atleast her target audience is alien to tamil music, if they like it, that is good

Wikipedia says this:
Covers and samples
* The opening words of "Bamboo Banga" ("Roadrunner, roadrunner / Goin' hundred miles per hour / With your radio on / With your radio on") are based on the lyrics of "Roadrunner", a song by Jonathan Richman from the 1976 album The Modern Lovers. Elements of the song "Kaattukkuyilu" from the Tamil film Dalapathi are also heard.
* "Bird Flu" incorporates elements of "Thirvizha Na Vantha" from the Tamil film Jayam.
* "Jimmy" is a reworked and rewritten cover of the song "Jimmy Jimmy Aaja" from the 1982 Bollywood film Disco Dancer.

kingvj,
I know for sure jimmy,jimmy,jimmy,Aja,Aja,Aja itself was a blatant copy of a western song by Bappi Lahiri...(I've heard the original those days, my uncle had the cassette, don't remember the artist / track etc. It was a ditto copy)...Bappi Lahiri was copying popular western songs left&right those days...remember Hari Om Hari (one way ticket)?
