We don’t know much about the world of disc-jockeying, but we do know that Diplo is one of our finest disc jockeys. Want to know how we know? As the electronic superstar told GQ:

Have you had diarrhea hit you in the middle of a set before?
Of course! You have to get through it. You’re like in Vegas or something and … whatever. It’s the worst. You just have to concentrate, get it done. I’m a soldier. [Laughs.]

Many a lesser man has been thwarted by the inexorable movement of waste through the intestines, but not Diplo, a man so committed to his craft that he would literally release his bowels onstage if it meant delivering on that sick bass drop. Thank you, Diplo.
