Hit-Boy has racked up quite the list of clientele throughout his career, having already worked with artists such as Kanye West, Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Britney Spears, Rihanna and much more. Now it looks like the Grammy-winning producer is set to team up with M.I.A. for her new album, Matangi. During Sunday’s Grammys, Hit-Boy snuck in a short interview backstage with CBS and revealed that he has already recorded seven songs with M.I.A.’s forthcoming album.
