Since Katy Perry and Taylor Swift’s great strides in the last couple of years, there seems to have been a renaissance in the pop song. This year has seen a plethora of well crafted radio friendly singles… Galantis, Nick Jonas, The Weeknd, Skrillex and Diplo, Years & Years etc. Major Lazer has featured on this blog before, but not for something this humongous. The US-based duo Diplo and Walshy Fire partnered with French producer DJ Snake and Danish singer MØ – and together they dreamt up this global monster. ‘Lean On’ features on Major Lazer’s third studio album, Peace Is the Mission, and like 2012’s ‘Get Free’, there is a distinct taste of reggae/dancehall for the masses. Have a great week.
