    Hands down a great sophomore record form a band that already seems regal. I almost always forget that don't have a handful of albums barreling behind them.

    Bonnaroo is just under two months away and the four-day festival have unveiled its 2015 set times.

Diplo has a ceiling in Vegas, and I'm doing great there, but I'm so proud of Major Lazer-the way it sounds, the way it's mixed. I feel like if I devote my time to that, it could grow."
