M.I.A. restraining order, Rapper M.I.A. will not be missing in action any time soon.
The performer has been banned from leaving the borough of Brooklyn with her son Ikhyd, courtesy of a court order.
After reportedly threatening to take her four-year-old son Ikhyd to her native London,M.I.A.’s ex-boyfriend, Benjamin Bronfman, obtained a temporary restraining order against the rapper to prevent her from taking their son to the U.K.against his wishes. A King’s County court granted the order earlier this week.
M.I.A. responded by taking to her Twitter account. On Wednesday she published a series of tweets accusing Bronfman and his family of attempting to separate her from her son.
The rapper tweeted about her relationship with her mother, who raised her as a single parent, saying, “Every child needs the MOTHER, I GREW UP WITHOUT A DAD. If grew up without my mother I wouldn’t be here.”
While the tweets were deleted from M.I.A.’s account minutes after being posted, the rapper has retweeted messages of support from her followers.
@MIAuniverse NO MOTHER SHOULD HAVE TO FACE THIS. A CHILD MUST NEVER BE SEPARATED FROM THE MOTHER.
