Nasty C, Ice Prince, Patoranking & Jidenna Appear in Major Lazer’s New EP

Major Lazer just released a surprise EP called Know No Better—and it has its own surprises too.

South African rapper Nasty C, DJ Maphorisa, Nigerian rapper Ice Prince, dancehall artist Patoranking and Jidenna are all featured on the project. The four appear on the EP’s third track called “Particula.”

The song, a mashup of dancehall, afrobeats and EDM, starts off with a sing-songy verse by Nasty C, where he raps, “Ain't nothing cooler than the wrong moves/ When you do 'em to the right song, the right song/ Let's shoot this movie and put the shit on repeat/ I hope this Mary's not making you fall asleep.” Which is followed by Patoranking’s catchy hook.

“Particula” is one of the many globe-trotting collaborations on the EP. Jamaican dancehall-reggae singer Busy Signal, Camila Cabello, Brazilian singer Pabllo Vittar, Trinidadian soca star Machel Montano, Jamaica's Konshens, Colombian reggaeton singer J Balvin all make appearances alongside Quavo, Sean Paul and Travis Scott on this musical world voyage.

Know No Better is the prequel to the trio’s upcoming album Music is the Weapon. Stream Know No Better in the playlists below.
