• Diplo, Skrillex Appear on BET's '106 & Park' to Talk Jack U, New Music, More

    Generally, BET's "106 & Park" only has artists involved in the hip-hop world, whether they are producers or rappers. But all rules go out the window when Diplo and Skrillex are involved, according to EDMTunes — especially when it is Diplo's birthday. Yesterday, as part of a non-traditional media day for disc jockeys, Skrillex and Diplo made an appearance on the show along with New Jersey DJs and producers DJ Fire and Dougie Fresh, who have released tracks on Diplo's record label Mad Decent. Since the show was geared toward an urban audience, the questions were related to their work with hip-hop and R&B acts, something both of them have experience in, Diplo especially. Diplo dished on club music, specifically Jersey club, and how he got in touch with DJ Fire and Dougie Fresh and the influence club music is having on the wider music arena. They discussed the inspiration for their new project Jack U and what it is up to over the next few months, including their Madison Square Garden show on New Year's Eve.
