Lil’ Jon explained his feelings on house music and the electronic dance festivals.

“I’ve done some other festivals. When those events come up , it’s like every major DJ in the world is there. You get to meet and see and just hang out with your homies, basically,” Lil Jon explained to Forbes Magazine.

When asked about the recent popularity of house music, Lil’ Jon said, “It’s party music and there’s so much new music constantly coming out and it’s just music to make you have a good time.”

Lil Jon has spent his time working on the craft of DJing as of late, perfecting the art of moving the crowd and diversifying his set list with varying genres of music.

“When I DJ, I play everything from some Afrojack to some Big Sean to some Skrillex. I play a wide variety of stuff so I have to really be on top of my musical game. I also have to be able to read the crowd and know exactly what kind of people I have in the crowd and play for everybody because my crowds are so diverse,” Lil Jon explained. ”A normal house DJ has a sick crowd that comes out and they just want to hear house all night. My crowd wants to hear Timberland, “Get Low”, and so many different things, so I have to be on top of my game and really read the crowd. I also have high energy while I’m DJing and give them a good show.”
