[@DokterRoetker]

Almost 10 years old, and still sounds so fresh

[@LordSniggles]

Hard bass/techno will never die as long as eastern Europe exists, and even if it did there would be some westerners like me that keep the memory alive.

[@agnidas5816]

in fact this is the freshest thing Major Lazer ever had a part in. his new shit sounds like... well shit and way older

[@joshhwa27]

Does it 😂

[@donniefeldick2428]

@@agnidas5816 that's opinion, and is pretty wrong lol. The persona of major Lazer has been in much doper shit than this. This song still murders, but newer shit is like mass murder tracks bro

thanks, i knew he had achieved the 15 fame thing...

[@TheEMFanner]

1:11 is my most favorite part of the song lol

[@StringQuartetFan]

You know why this music video is genius? Because these artists know this track is fucking top on its own, regardless of what you watch while listening to it. Its like a big fuck you to all the artists that need million dollar visuals to make their music cool.

Pretty good comment, but would have been better with a higher budget.

[@zstick]

Seriously one of my favorite music videos of all time. It's like they said "Hey, so our song is one of the most bumpin' things out there. How 'bout we prove that with a music video that no one would ever watch in a million years if it weren't for our song's indescribable awesomeness?" AND IT WORKED.

[@koolkri1]

What a dangerous family

[@HoboBusiness]

Well Diplo wasn't all that dangerous with his book and sandwich tray

[@azanshaikh7825]

why the fuck do I like this???????

[@samshygiene3202]

It's primal.

[@michaelbeary]

It's like a brother and sister that are a little too into wielding weaponry and a grandmother that's a little too ok with all of it. There needs to be a whole series of videos with this awesome shit.

[@berhen7360]

Nope.. Kept it by one... Only making it more legendary..

[@edwardgoering1237]

Whats even weider is of all the Wars fought that way and all of the Blood spilled that way How could anyone think of entertaining this way yet

[@averagealien346]

don't worry, this is actually a very elaborate version of the Sims with mindblowing graphics.

And this is how Trap Music became popular or should I say created.

[@SaduraDubstep]

Its not trap

[@_TrapCrew]

RAG ARANDOS But the Flosstradamus Trap remix is what made trap popular. Or at least it was what got me addicted to trap.

[@joesmith201212]

this is the song that started EDM trap, of course trap beat and sound has been used in HIP hop for a long while but Diplo and Major lazer was the first to really sample it in this song,,,, and then other DJ listened to it and expanded it.... this song is pretty much history in the making.

[@hunterradecki982]

Joe smith please stop talkin ur just wrong and it hurts ppl who actually know stuff about trap to hear wat u said

[@joesmith201212]

dude I've researched the shit outta this topic, So instead of trolling and just making false accusations. Write down what you know Professor Hunter? Yeah you can't cuz you don't know diddly squat.

[@PumpkinSanta]

Whenever I hear this song it makes me sad. I had a disabled friend who showed me this song and I fell in love with it back in 2017 when they showed me and in 2020 they died during Lockdown when Covid-19 was happening and was fairly new in my country (South Africa). And whenever I listen to this song, it makes me think about his death and I just cry thinking about it
