The Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 36

The Top One Percenters Playlist Vol 34
I took a break from creating and posting music playlists on IG for #BLM. Can't take away from what's important. But mental health is also important, and sometimes you need a distraction and time/space to get out of your own head. Escape life, so to say. So here we have a super-sized Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 34. As always, an eclectic mix of indie pop, dance, rap and r&b.
You may be tired of hearing "Savage" but Major Lazer did a dope fucking club remix that makes the record sound brand new. There's new records from The Neptunes and Deadmou5 ("Pomegranate"), Jamie XX-style tracks like The 1975's Shiny Collarbone (I swore it was Jamie XX when I first heard it), newer artists like Rina Sawayama ("Love Me 4 Me"), Sofia Hoss ("Where Did You Go"), Molly Moore ("Handsomer"), and the usual collective of banging fucking music.
Remember Baauer and "Harlem Shake"? He recently released a new album, and the standout track "REACHUPDONTSTOP" is included here. I bought some club speakers and I can't wait to bang that shit loud as fuck on em.
There's something for everyone, I promise. Playlist below, tracklist after the jump, and link here for Vol 33.
The Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 28
This edition is a little supersized because it's been so long since I've made a playlist. Lot of artists that are new to me/I haven't posted about before (e.g. Megan Thee Stallion, Kim Petras, Lolo Zouaï), regular hitmakers (e.g. Ariana Grande, Sam Smith) artists who are back on the scene after a hiatus and/or music that didn't bop (e.g. Big Sean, French Montana, Iggy Azalea) and artists that are just making great, feel good music (e.g. Burna Boy, Spencer Ludwig, Sofi Tukker).
As a reminder, the top 29 songs are new, the rest are from previous editions of the playlist. You can find the older playlists here. Take a listen and lmk your thoughts.
Major Lazer - Know No Better (feat. Travis Scott, Camila Cabello & Quavo)
Major Lazer is back with a pretty banging summer EP titled Know No Better. Caribbean-infused like everything they do, the first single, also called "Know No Better," features Travis Scott, Camila Cabello (formally of Fifth Harmony) & Quavo. It took me a few listens to enjoy the song (I almost deleted it) but this has grown on my quickly. Both optimistic and depressing, the track opens with a soft piano riff that is in no way indicative of how the rest of the track will sound — this is a banger than makes you wanna dance on a rooftop. This is NYC so I'm gonna go do exactly that when i get off work in 45 minutes.
Another song, "Particula" is dedicated to baes everywhere.
Major Lazer - Be Together ft. Wild Belle [Lyric Video]
I've been a big fan of Major Lazer ever since "Pon De Floor" got piped into a hot basement speaker system during a random college party. Then Beyonce sampled it for "Run The World (Girls)" and Diplo's status was kind of set. Major Lazer recently released their third album, Peace is the Mission, and it features some serious fucking bangers, including the worldwide hit "Lean On" with DJ Snake ft. MØ. Check out more below.
Major Lazer & DJ Snake - Lean On ft. MØ [Music Video]
A few weeks ago, Major Lazer dropped "Lean On" with DJ Snake & MØ, the first single off their forthcoming album, Peace is the Mission. Today, the band let loose the music video for "Lean On", as well as confirming Peace is the Mission will drop June 1st. The song is super dope and has been in my rotation since the beginning of March, but I have a few Qs about the music video: One, when did Major Lazer get a budget to do something as expansive as this? And two, am I the only one with a side eye at MØ's dancing? Either way, I'm geeked for the new album.
The Top One Percenters Mixtape: Volume 19
Originally compiled December 2014. Hit the jump to hear the goods. I'll try to add Spotify/YouTube/Soundcloud playlists of all the songs moving forward
Song of the Day: Major Lazer ft. Ariana Grande - All My Love
So Lorde curated the new Hunger Games: Mockingjay soundtrack, and first of all, it's fucking fire. Secondly, one of the standout tracks is Major Lazer's "All My Love" featuring Ariana Grande. It's Major Lazer's trademark culturally-infused style with Ariana's falsetto overtop. Straight crack.
