Superstar producer and DJ culture misanthrope Diplo has confirmed a handful of huge names for his upcoming Major Lazer album.

The record has yet to receive an official release date, but is expected to arrive around January 2017. 'Music Is The Weapon' will feature collaborations with Travi$ Scott, Sia, Usher and MØ.

In an interview with Zane Lowe, Diplo explains the first single 'Cold Water' unexpectedly leaking over a local radio station in China and goes on to announce that the next track from the upcoming LP will premiere next month.

The Mad Decent captain also mentioned that both Beyoncé and The Weeknd took picks from his original 'Music Is The Weapon' productions for their own recent works.

Listen to the full interview below.
