Thomas Wesley Pentz, known professionally as Diplo, is an American DJ, record producer, and songwriter who has been a defining force in the music industry since the early 2000s. Born on November 10, 1978, in Tupelo, Mississippi, Diplo has carved out a reputation for being a genre-defying artist, effortlessly blending elements of electronic dance music with hip hop, pop, country, and more. He co-created and led the dancehall music project Major Lazer, is part of the supergroup LSD with Sia and Labrinth, and makes up one half of the electronic duo Jack Ü alongside Skrillex.

Diplo has continued to surprise and engage audiences with his innovative sounds and collaborations. His curation of a global sound is evident in eclectic projects such as the country-infused "Diplo Presents Thomas Wesley: Chapter 2 - Swamp Savant," showcasing his versatility and willingness to push boundaries within the music scene. His recent releases, like the poignant "Heartbroken" (feat. Jessie Murph & Polo G), the introspective "Without You" (feat. Elle King), and the remixes of "Use Me (Brutal Hearts)" (feat. Sturgill Simpson, Dove Cameron & Johnny Blue Skies), reveal an artist deeply in tune with the diverse currents of modern music. Always one to keep the dance floors vibrant, his remixes, including "Maria Maria (Diplo Remix)" and "MONEY ON THE DASH - Diplo Remix," continue to resonate with his signature dynamic production style. Diplo's influences and innovative productions have helped to shape the modern landscape of music, making him an enduring figure in the pantheon of contemporary musicians.
