Preview a new Jack U track + More from Diplo’s Reddit AMA

Reddit ‘AMA’ (Ask me anything) sessions are quickly becoming a fun and easy way for artists to host fun, personal question and answer sessions with their loyal fans. Diplo recently took to the Reddit airwaves and hosted his very own AMA. Some answers made us laugh, some made us question his sanity and some got us just plain excited.

 

Jack U, the collaboration project between Skrillex and Diplo is what everyone has been waiting for ever since their massive Ultra mainstage set. Diplo did share a bit of news about the duo in his AMA, stating they have a mixtape coming soon and an official stream of the first single coming this week (hopefully).

 

We are stoked to hear anything from Jack U because the collective musical experience and differences from Diplo and Skrillex give them a handle on pretty much every sub-genre you can think of. He played out the ‘Take you there’ track he touches on in a set he played in Paris. We only have a preview right now from a live set, but hopefully an official studio preview gets released in the near future.

 

Diplo didn’t stop there, he touched upon a handful of other questions that we are all dying to know the answer to

 

Diplo on how many children he has (We’re not sure if he’s joking.)

Diplo on a collab with Kanye 

Diplo on his and everyone else’s sexuality

Diplo gives advice to an aspiring producer

Diplo on his obsession with the Olsen twins, and his lack of context

And finally, what would happen if Flosstradamus never remixed ‘Original Don’
