Mark Ronson and Diplo announce joint project titled 'Silk City'
Named after the venue where Diplo started as a DJ.
The pair will debut their new project together in New York in June. In August 2017, Diplo confirmed that the pair were working on a new collaborative disco album.
Diplo had initially teased at in an interview last year saying: "I met him when I first went to Philly - I went to go see him play Allen Iverson's birthday party at the Palmer."
"I just thought, This guy is cool. Actually, me and Mark are doing a collab album. You know the album I did with Skrillex, ‘Jack Ü’? Me and Mark are trying to do something with disco music."
Together the pair have quite the discography. Diplo has worked with the likes of Kanye West, Chris Brown, Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne, The Weeknd and Mark Ronson has worked with similarly up there artists like A$AP Rocky, SZA, Ghostface Killah, Mystikal, and Bruno Mars.
Although neither artist has revealed any actual audio or visual teasers of this supposed “disco” project, fans can assume that they’ll be debuting some new music before they take the stage together.
Ronson hasn't had a release under his name since his 2015 Uptown Special. Meanwhile, Diplo dropped Know No Better EP with Major Lazer last year and is working on another possible release for 2018.
