    Maybe "International deejays" would convey your message in a more positive way? Imho (and as we've already seen on this thread) any mention of race can potentially rub people the wrong way. Especially since two of you are white.

    Not the kind of shit you make jokes out of dawg. Not tasteful ones anyway. I'm not trying to start anything, I know you weren't being serious.

    I'm sure there are a few teetotalers who would be offended by your name

    jesus christ, this isn't the 1920s. why are you making a big deal of working with someone who isn't the same cultural background as you?
