First single 'Cold Water' features MØ and Justin Bieber and is premiering in the next couple of weeks. Can't waittt.

Would never have imagined just how big they'd blow up with the last album, I'm sure they're bound to just get even bigger from here too. 🙌🏼

Yeah, I thought they were making 'Boom' the next single (which I think could have smashed hard btw) but I'm kind of glad we are getting brand new material.

 

With the JB feature, it is bound to be big and one of the 2016 Summer anthems.

I wonder if this is 'Music is the Mission' or whether they've abandoned that title for something better more fitting.

Cold Water out next month (which could be tomorrow but I doubt it)

I reckon it's tomorrow. This sounds like it has potential.

It's out July 15th

apparently Ed Sheeran and Benny Blanco (produced hits for Rihanna, Maroon 5, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber etc.) are both involved in 'Cold Water' as well!!!

Now out 22/7

Leaked on here in full! The quality isn't too good but I have to say on first listen this is very different to what I expected.

 

I really like it though, it does sound absolutely HUGE.

 

Can see this being my favourite song very soon.

Meh

 

Very average. Sounds very much like 'Waves' by Mr Probz and not much like Major Lazer's other stuff.

 

Don't know if I can be bothered with this being #1 for the next 4 months.

I really like that! Definitely sounds like a huge smash to me. Justin sounding great as always :wub:

I can pick up on the 'Waves' comparisons too. I think it will sound pretty good on the radio in the hot weather but it's not one I'll be listening through choice all that often, unless it ends up growing on me, which I could see happening tbh.

this is sounding brilliant! (minus the sound quality of that rip)

I was really excited about this given all three names involved but I can't help feel quite disappointed.

Heard the full song and it does sound huge... probably will be this year's 'How Deep Is Your Love'. Can't help but feel that Major Later are heading down the Sigma route and every song sounding the same.

I have been a fan of Diplo for about 8 years.. this is definitely the most commercial thing I have ever heard him release!

 

Can see the Waves references.. but I think it does enough to stand on itself. I really like it, very easy listening and yes the streaming and bars are going to eat this up alive!

I thought of Waves immediately when I first heard it too. Really liking it, but it really doesn't seem like a Major Lazer song at all haha.

I suppose the chorus is quite Diplo, but the rest just feels a bit tame. Can see myself loving it, but it seems so much more like a Justin single produced by Diplo rather than the first single from the new Major Lazer album...

Be Right There was very commercial for Diplo as well.

 

Can't see this missing #1, probably still be in the charts next January. :lol:

Oh YES this is sounding wonderful! It is very Waves but with a far more suited vocalist to the style IMO.

The album is supposedly called "Music Is The Weapon" and it includes features from The Weeknd, Gwen Stefani, Camila Cabello, Sia and Travis Scott.
