Before Diplo became a superstar DJ, started his own label, Mad Decent, and teamed up with Skrillex to form Jack U.

Before his bad boy attitude landed him some personal time with hottie superstars M.I.A and later Katy Perry.

Before Diplo garnered the title ‘DJ of the Year’ by Spin magazine in 2005 and worked on projects with Die [ant-verd] Antwoord, Britney Spears, Madonna, Shakira, Beyoncé, No Doubt, Justin Bieber, Usher, Snoop Dogg, and Chris Brown

Before Diplo would model for fashion designer Alexander Wang.
Before he was the face behind the BlackBerry Torch ad campaign that aired during the Super bowl, and did it all for just a free phone.

Thomas ‘Wes’ Pentz grew up in south Florida and worked in a bait shop with his dad with the dream of one day becoming a paleontologist. But his proximity to the Miami music scene exposed hm to another passion and he enjoyed travelling the world in search of music rather than studying dinosaur bones. It took him some time to find his audience working a bunch of random gigs while he moonlit as a DJ building a loyal fan base. His eclectic taste was soon noticed by London rapper M.I.A. Whom he would enter into a long term relationship. Together and with the help of DJ Switch, the three rose to fame in 2005 with the track ‘Paper Planes’ which earned for them a grammy nomination and from there will the man has had his hand in some of the most popular hits of the last decade.
