Hopefully, you haven't slept on Major Lazer's documentary Give Me Future like some kind of artless fool. The film, released last year on Apple Music, chronicles the trio's historic 2016 show in Havana, Cuba that was attended by nearly half a million people. The must-see documentary was accompanied by Major Lazer Presents: Give Me Future—Music From and Inspired by the Film, a 13-track collection that included the Diplo and MØ collab "Get It Right." On Friday, Diplo unveiled a fresh remix of the track featuring a new verse from GoldLink.
"'Get It Right' was one of those songs that was written within a very short amount of time—where you hear the beat, you feel inspired, you sing the melodies and the lyrics write themselves because they were already there," MØ said of the writing session that resulted in the original version of the track. "Good sounds inspire you to write more passionately about subjects that are close to your heart, and [Diplo's] sounds tend to do that to me."
Last month, Diplo and MØ shared the Brantley Gutierrez-directed video for the track featuring choreography from Sara Bivens and Calvit Hodge.
The remix will give the track another boost with a special Tonight Show performance next week.
Diplo also made sure the impending remix got the attention it deserves by unleashing a series of tongue-in-cheek Yeezy Season 6 promos on Instagram Thursday.
Well played.
