American DJ and musician Diplo turns 42 today. It is often said that being the busiest man in music made Diplo the pop culture icon that he is today. In an explosive interview, he has even called the DJ culture cheesy and embarrassing. "I mean, DJs in general, the culture’s really ugly. It’s cheesy. Corny. It’s embarrassing," said Diplo. "You know, I never wanted to be part of the DJ world. I just fell into it." Well, his Instagram feed is everything about that culture. Shirtless pics, party snaps and snazzy snapshots of his lavish life keep fuelling his fans' desire to love him more. DJ Diplo Confirms He Has a Son With Model Jevon King, Dedicates an Adorable Instagram Post for Them.

"My main goal is to try and keep [all my projects] independent, because I don’t want them to all blend together," Diplo has said. "But it’s hard because you can’t control the way fans process the stream of information you give them about who and what you are. I can take off the cowboy hat, but that’s about it."
