The Clash, Combat Rock (1982)
Despite mixed reviews, the album does include the song "Straight to Hell," a slow and heavy meditation on the plight of Third World immigrants; a sample from "Straight to Hell" forms the backbone of "Paper Planes."
M.I.A., Arular (2005)
M.I.A.'s typically eclectic debut album was widely hailed by critics but didn't fare too well with customers in the U.S., who were slow to buy the genre-busting album.
M.I.A., Kala (2007)
M.I.A.'s sophomore effort included the radio-friendly hit "Paper Planes." The entire album is well worth a listen.
