Diplo Talks New Major Lazer Music + A Collaboration With The Weeknd

Diplo recently stopped in Boston and sat down with Vanessa Hale at 103.3 AMP Radio to talk about his upcoming projects, the new Major Lazer album, and what it’s like to work with collaborators such as Chris Brown and Bruno Mars.

Following the worldwide success of “Lean On” and the rest of the Peace Is The Mission album which also featured collaborations with Ellie Goulding and 2Chainz, the natural question is to ask…what’s next for Diplo and the rest of the Major Lazer squad?
