"Free The Universe" the highly anticipated second album from Major Lazer has had its intended march release delayed due to some unforeseen circumstances. The American 3 piece took to Facebook saying " we are truly apologetic and we promise that this hiccup has only made what we have planned for the album stronger. We tried extremely hard to keep the date but it was ultimately decided that rushing the album would have been unfair to you and everyone who worked so hard on it." Its not all doom and gloom though, over the coming weeks Jillionaire, Walshy Fire and [...]

The post DIPLO ft GENT & JAWNS "BUTTER'S THEME" appeared first on LessThan3 .
In 2012 it was impossible to ignore Thomas Wesley Pentz or Diplo as many of you will know him by. As we transitioned in to 2013, it was evident that Diplo has taken over the world musically and I know I'm certainly okay with this. The man really almost needs no introduction, but then again not everyone might be as familiar with him. However, either way it is important to know him because well, we needed him in music. He brought unique aspects to not only his individual music, but his other projects and [...]
Azealia Banks is at it again, this time taking Baauers recent viral hit "Harlem Shake" and slapping her own verses over the top without permission. When the young female MC had her version stripped from Soundcloud it was taken to Twitter where she accused the New York producer of "cockblockin" and eventually calling him a "pussy" and "faggot" the later drawing attention from Perez Hilton who took offence (after a previous incident that included the same derogatory term). Deeper still the feud buries with Mad Decent owner Diplo being pulled [...]
Azealia Banks has taken Baauers recent viral hit "Harlem Shake" and slapped her own verses over the top. When the ironically Harlem based MC had her version stripped from Soundcloud it was taken to Twitter where she accused the New York producer of "cockblockin" and eventually calling him a "pussy" and "faggot" the later drawing attention from Perez Hilton who took offence (after a previous incident that included the same derogatory term). Deeper still the feud buries with Mad Decent owner Diplo being pulled into the mess after Banks let fly that [...]

Diplo and GTA have teamed up to produce "Boy Oh Boy," their bucknasty rework of Missy Elliott's infamous track, "Work It." Starting off with a heavy hitting bassline that is accompanied by some fairly rampage-like synths, this remix slowly builds up to reveal that unforgettable hook we all know and love from Missy's original record from 2002. In bringing their conjoined efforts together, the Mad Decent Madman and Miami-based producer have managed to completely trick out the decade-old hit and infuse it with some sultry moombah flavor. It looks like great minds do think [...]

As one of the many producers of Santi White's debut album Santogold, Diplo also had the distinct pleasure at trying his hand at a remixes for the memorable album in the form of the Top Ranking: A Diplo Dub mixtape. You now know Santogold as Santigold and you now know Diplo as part of Major Lazer , Mad Decent head man, and a Grammy-nominated producer.

![[Interview] RiFF RaFF: Just Go With It](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4713309_lg.jpg)
"If you see somebody hating, point'em out, point'em out." It's 9PM on Friday night, and I'm drunk. I've been at Reggie's for almost two hours, drinking free PBR's, followed by more age appropriate imports, waiting for the same thing that everyone is waiting for, RiFF RaFF. The thought of me ever waiting to see an artist like RiFF RaFF is surprising to me, and to many of my friends who were also at Reggie's that night, also waiting to see RiFF RaFF. It's been that way for me, and many others, increasingly over the last few [...]
[top_post_splash num="16"] The rise of trap music from the underground to mass appeal is quite fascinating. With its roots in Dirty South rap, trap was already a familiar sound with the youth of America and as it grew more popular we saw it mingle with other EDM genres like moombahton, big room house, and even hardstyle. This chart showcases the genre's leading pioneers that carved out its evolution in 2012.
