A decade after their explosive collaboration as Jack Ü, Diplo publicly calls on Skrillex to forgive him and reignite one of the most iconic duos in dance music history.
A Decade Since Jack Ü Changed Dance Music
Ten years ago, Diplo and Skrillex joined forces to form one of the most groundbreaking electronic duos of the 2010s — Jack Ü. Their union sent shockwaves through the global dance scene, combining Diplo’s genre-blending production with Skrillex’s explosive bass and sound design.
Their debut single, “Take Ü There,” featuring Kiesza, quickly became a festival anthem, followed by the global smash hit “Where Are Ü Now” with Justin Bieber, which topped charts worldwide and redefined the EDM-pop crossover sound.
From Collaboration to Fallout
Despite their meteoric success, the duo’s partnership ended abruptly after just one album. Tensions grew, and both producers went their separate ways — Skrillex diving deeper into experimental projects with Four Tet, Fred again.., and Hambi, while Diplo continued expanding his influence across house, Latin, and pop music.
Over the years, Diplo has made several public appeals for reconciliation, but Skrillex has remained notably silent on the matter.
Diplo’s Latest Plea: “Tell Him to Forgive Me for My Sins”
During a recent Twitch stream with Kaysan, Diplo once again revisited the subject. When Kaysan mentioned Jack Ü, Diplo jokingly but sincerely replied:
“Go find Skrillex and tell him to forgive me for my sins.”
The two reminisced about Jack Ü’s legendary live moments — from Coachella to HARD Summer, where surprise appearances from Justin Bieber and Kanye West turned their sets into unforgettable milestones in dance music history.
Fans Hope for a Jack Ü Comeback
Diplo’s comments reignited fan hopes for a Jack Ü reunion, with social media once again buzzing over the possibility of new music from the duo. Whether this is wishful nostalgia or the first spark of something real remains uncertain — but one thing is clear: Jack Ü’s legacy still resonates deeply with fans and artists alike.
If forgiveness is found, 2026 could mark the most anticipated reunion in electronic music history.
