Pakistan gets a dash of music Diplo
Diplo
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - American DJ and  record producer Diplo  brought  his  Mad Decent Block Party to Pakistanâs capital over the weekend  headlining a roster of musicians including local Pakistani acts.
For two-time Grammy winner Diplo  playing Pakistan is a way to foster good relations with the mostly Muslim country after an angry Jan. 1 tweet from U.S. President Donald Trump complaining that Pakistan gives âterroristsâ a safe haven.
âI think the best way we can do any kind of diplomacy with the Pakistani people is ... basically reaching out to the kids like we do at the concerts â  Diplo  told TMZ last month after the Trump tweet  which soured U.S.-Pakistani relations.
Among the headliners were Diploâs chart-topping side project Major Lazer Soundsystem  DJ Chrome Sparks and Pakistani duo SNKM  which has played the South by Southwest festival and toured with Diplo in the U.S.
