"Lean On" was a global commercial success. In the United States, "Lean On" debuted at the bottom of the Billboard Hot 100 on the issue dated April 25, 2015. The song later reached number four on August 29, 2015, spending 10 consecutive weeks in the top-10. This entry makes it Major Lazer and MØ's highest-charting hit in the country at the time making Major Lazer's first top 10 and top 40, also making MØ's first top 10 and second top 40 ("Cold Water", a collaboration with Justin Bieber, reached number two in 2016); "Lean On" also ties with DJ Snake's "Turn Down for What", which also reached number four in June 2014.
In January 2022, MØ commented, "The video is so beautiful and amazing, but I definitely think it's cultural appropriation, for sure. And I'm so happy that people were making me aware of it, because, at the time, I didn't really understand."
