Mad Decent boss and noted stud muffin Diplo hopped on Reddit today to do an AMA in support of his latest release—a compilation of his best tracks from the last few years, which he's knowingly titled Random White Dude Be Everywhere. We're not sure if he typed this on his phone while wearing LED rave gloves, or just is cursed with treacherous spelling, but one thing's for sure: Diplo doesn't give two hoots and a holler about writing in full sentences, and he can't spell for shit.Here are some other things we learned about good old Diplodocus:The Hollerboard never dies.Kanye is sitting on some Diplo gems. He has a "special disqualification trick" to get out DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs list—because ranking would be so offbrand. Joints > bongsHe's still amazed by the global EDM explosion. But thinks a lot of new DJs are lacking in "history."Sophie, Eprom, and Calvin Harris top his list of favorite producers (right now). Riff Raff's debut album NEON iCON got a little fucked over by red tape. (Also, Diplo's phone seems to autocorrect "major labels" to "major lazer.") K-pop is coming to Mad Decent.He's decided that Miami has the world's best rump-shakers. Followed by… um, Paris? "Fort Thoterdale" He's got a collection of #very #rare dub plates. Die Antwoord is definitely a big fat joke. Maybe. And his all-time favorite remix by another DJ is… Michelle is the mayor of Fort Thoterdale. Follow her on Twitter - @MichelleLhooq
