Diplo Discusses the Importance of Radio
Wired 965’s DJ Beatstreet recently caught up with Diplo at his seventh annual Mad Decent Block Party in Philadelphia. The interview started off kind of slow but eventually got juicy around six minutes in when Beatstreet asked Diplo about the importance of radio.

Diplo also discussed Major Lazer’s next album which he said will have “a lot of big stars,” Riff Raff’s upcoming track with Katy Perry, and the purpose behind Mad Decent’s Jeffrees imprint.
