Rapper M.I.A has given birth to a baby boy early this morning - just days after her appearance at the Grammy's onstage with Jay-Z, I.I, Lil Wayne and Kanye West.

Her fiancé Benjamin Brewer said she started having contractions right before she hit the stage so a waiting car rushed her off to the hospital after she sang her hit remix "Swagga Like Us."

During the red carpet at the show M.I.A. told reporters, "It doesn't matter to me if it's a boy or a girl. If it's a girl she will be a tough girl, but I think I may have a boy because I have a pointy stomach."

She is hoping to make it to the Oscars in two weeks time where she is scheduled to perform.

Amazing that a rapper story actually passes as news, as we sold our country to George Soros and watch it drain out the river.  Bread and circuses.
