Peace Is the Mission

When Major Lazer released Peace Is the Mission in June 2015, it already came with a particular energy. This album, the project's third studio effort, feels like a consolidation of their sound, a point where experimentation and accessibility meet. It's not just about catchy rhythms, but about how each track was built to have its own identity, often fusing influences from different parts of the world. The production, handled by artists like Diplo and DJ Snake, gives it that distinctive electronic texture that invites movement, but always with a human, almost organic touch, distancing it from the purely artificial.

About the album

Peace Is the Mission, according to DoReSol

The album made a strong impact with the track "Lean On", a collaboration with DJ Snake and Danish singer . This song not only became a global hit but reached the top of the charts in places like Australia, Belgium, and Denmark, and entered the top ten in many other countries. Another track that resonated was "Powerful", where they collaborated with Ellie Goulding and Tarrus Riley, showcasing another facet of the project. It's also worth mentioning "Light It Up", in its version with Nyla and Fuse ODG, which became a hit in several European countries.

Peace Is the Mission stood out not only for its singles but for the variety of guests who contributed their style. Songs like "Be Together" with Wild Belle or "All My Love", which had already appeared on the soundtrack of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1, demonstrate the project's broad vision. The album debuted at number 12 on the Billboard 200, showing that their proposal was resonating with a wide audience, and reached number five on the Canadian Albums Chart.
