Here's why does Diplo makes a great interview: Few other DJs and producers will be as entertaining and straightforward about their own fallibleness, while also having great visions for music (and coconut flavoured rum).
As the leader of arguably the greatest party soundsystem of the decade, having no classical training seems of less importance than say, an extravagant live show, hard hitting production, DJ:ing skill and a neatly ironed shirt. There's not enough dancehall sounds rocking arena crowds on the scale of the Mighty Crown Soundsystem. The Major Lazer summer tour has also served as also served a reminder of every genre's dependence on their most popular ambassadors. Thanks for bringing more Caribbean music to the world!
There's also some really helpful words in here for making Malibu drinks ("You could always mix Malibu Rum with your favourite fruit juice"). Thanks Diplo. If you'll handle the music, we'll stick to manning the bar.
