This song has been stuck in my head for a couple of weeks now! I’ve been familiar with Major Lazer for a while, even before the latest hit Lean On, but it’s typically a music genre I overlook or don’t think twice about.
Two weeks ago I heard Lean On on Beats 1 Radio and was not sure what I had just heard. Still not knowing what the song was or who it was by, I came across it on the dance floor of a wedding I attended this past weekend. I remember it was the third song played of the night and as soon as I heard it start I ran to the center of the floor and danced like never before. This song was fire for such a time of celebration and partying, and certainly got the attendees to loosen up, which then went to set the tone for the rest of the night.
If you’re unfamiliar, which at this point you’ve most likely heard the song Lean On, Major Lazer is an electronic music group that fuses reggae and several other genres into their sound. One song you may know that they were involved in, or at least Diplo, one of the groups members, was that of Paper Planes by the artist M.I.A. back in 2008.
Any who, without further ado, go listen to Lean On and get your weekend mode on!
