Just seen Diplo on the new Blackberry advert

[elibomyekip]

Am I the only one who thinks he's a massive cock?
His music is terrible too. All of it. No exceptions.

[wormcode]

I was wondering if that was him, I didn't know he got "famous", like television type of thing.

[ahier]

hes got a few good songs under his belt, hes not exactly talentless - knows his way around a studio, hes a pretty good dj, and his tweets are sometimes really really funny. and blackberrys are cooler than iphones.

i also think he was chosen, along with that art gallery guy, to try and market blackberrys to "cool" media/entertainment people, the kind of people that will have heard of diplo and know about his music

[prisoner]

he looks like a complete twit wearing a suit through the whole commercial.

[frank grimes jr.]

Some people like looking classy.
GOT BEEF FELLA?

[WhosZena]

Nice outfit
(Its okay, Blackberry's a massive cock also)

Did you know..
To be a DJ or moderately successful - while still having fun and everyone loving you, its impossible not to have one in your possession

Worst Major Lazer by a large margin.

[mikey_g]

couldnt care les about adverts but diplo isnt all bad

[twentyOneDummies]

The guy's a total twat and I despise his trainspotter attitude towards music: he goes around grabbing what he wants from underground scenes, blows up the most dumbed down and ridiculous aspects for mindless consumers of cool and then moves on to the next thing like a fucking virus. Zero integrity, zero respect. Shite producer as well, terrible electro versions of better sounds the lot of it.

[bass hertz]

In the states, they are targeting the Blackberry to the hipster culture. Commercials with horrendous music and fixed gear bikes, etc, all the hipster references.

[dddemain]

Two fucking awesome songs
