Preview Major Lazer And DJ Snake’s Lean On VIP Remix

Major Lazer took over 2015 with “Lean On,” no question about it. Now, they’re riding the track’s success all the way into 2016 with a new VIP edit of the most Shazamed song of all-time.

The group just released the above teaser of the track’s newest incarnation, and it’s a stark contrast to the original. Already working on a follow up to Peace Is The Mission titled Music Is The Weapon, Major Lazer’s VIP offers a glimpse of the possible trajectory for their new material.
