Particula



Particular definition, of or relating to a single or specific person, thing, group, class, occasion, etc., rather than to others or all; special rather than general: one's particular interests in books. “Particula” is a song about admiration of a girl and letting her know exactly how special she is. On the track, Major Lazer takes us to the continent of Africa and they are duly assisted. 'Particula' is a song performed by American electronic music trio Major Lazer from their EP Know No Better (2017). The song features DJ Maphorisa and vocals by South African rapper Nasty C, Nigerian artists Ice Prince and Patoranking, and Nigerian-American hip hop recording artist Jidenna.

Reception[edit]

Adriaan Louw of Word Africa Production in a press release said they 'wanted it to feel like we were shooting a documentary in the 70's'. He added, 'I've always wanted to shoot a film like this in Johannesburg. It was creating an ideal world within Joburg that was based in the 70's. I wanted it to feel like we were shooting a documentary in the 70's of the culture that could have been in a city where Disco, Funk, Fela Kuti was everywhere. We worked with some great artist who featured on the track. Jidenna flew in all the way from the states and Ice Prince came down from Nigeria. Was also my first time working with fellow South African's Nasty C and DJ Maphorisa.'[13][14]
