The rapper will follow Elbow’s Guy Garvey in overseeing the event, which will run from June 9 to 18 at the Southbank Centre in London.
“For me this Meltdown will be about putting on a musical week that shows different types of music which have inspired each other to exist,” M.I.A said. “Genres that support other genres, redefining the concept of a melting pot. Respect the history, don’t live in it. I plan to bring together music’s best forward thinkers who have contributed to all our lives. When music acts as inspiration, it’s boundary-less.”
M.I.A released ‘AIM’ last autumn.
