I think you can't really beat Bob Marley, especially the stuff he was doing with Lee Perry. Just that kind of clubby and dark and crazy stuff, even with the Wailers... Some of the songwriting was phenomenal. Diplo beatbobclubby share on social
New York feels like the whole city is into dance music. That's not how it felt when I was younger. There was more of a hipster scene. Diplo citydancefelt Change image and share on social
You just have to do; you can't live by the rules of what you're supposed to do. I think every person is good at something, and you just have to push that forward. Diplo forwardgoodlive Change image and share on social
The kids that are making the ghetto stuff I can't even reach are the ones that are inspiring me to play music for the other kids in the city they don't even know about. If I don't get those kids making music, there won't be an original kid DJing like me in five to 10 years. Diplo cityghettoinspire share on social

Money, for me, is just to create bigger and better things. A lot of guys in the deejaying world flaunt it, but I don't see any use in that. I don't need anything. I live in hotels. Most of my clothes I get for free. I like to invest in ideas. In people. Diplo bigclothecreate share on social
