"When You Touch Me, It's so Powerful"
In case you didn't already have enough incentive to go out and cop Major Lazer's new album Peace is the Mission, here comes yet another single to add to the mountain of recent ones. It's way more pop than you're used to with the characteristically bubbly tribal rhythms of Diplo's crew, but it speaks to their versatility. They don't make a type of music other than good music, which is something many other niche artists who know one path to success can't claim.
Sure, it helps the Ellie Goulding and Tarrus Riley bring the heat vocally on Powerful. While the beat is usually the reason you tune in to hear Major Lazer, it does a good job of providing enough glue to hold together the vocals in this case. Peace is the Mission hits iTunes tomorrow and my only beef with the album is that it's nine songs. For you visual folks, check out the lyric video below for Powerful or hit the Soundcloud link if you're using headphones on mobile...#PeaceIsTheMission
