DJ Stan previously spun the tunes at the Playboy Mansion, and has even worked with Madonna and Moby, but he's chosen to settle with his family in Moscow and even has designs on starting a new generation of Muscovite DJs.

His real name is Stanley Williams and he is originally from New York. He is now living in the capital of Russia and says he like tea and Russian blini.

“I lived in different countries all over the world, but I never learned the language as quickly as I did in Russia,” he said. “I learned the Russian language, and it’s beautiful.”

He met his wife Polina in a Latino club 8 years ago, and fell in love.

“We started a new generation together: Afro-Russki,” joked DJ Stan.

He says he fell in love with Russian people and now enjoys life in the capital.

Wtf? This is "luxury life", he knocked up a russian ho and I don't see no fancy ride, no great pad with a view, no bling of any kind. Walks in the park, any chump can get that. This guy is on the run from someone and hiding out. You need to actually go to Russia to see what is happening

Maahaley, surely you jest. I have seen enough "Stan-the-man" types in the former republics of the USSR. They have no talent or skills that the host country needs. They soon wear out their welcome and end up on some dirty street corner beating on garbage cans and rapping for kopeks. Usually, their so-called "wives" and their Black babies are dumped as the "stud" runs back to the American ghetto from which he came. What happens to the "Afro-Ruskis" or "Afro-Litaus"?? They end up as uneducated losers roaming the streets of the host country.

You fall in love with Stan-the-Man as we call him in America and his music any where he goes. We miss him dearly in United States. He has always been a industry trendsetter and very much respected. Russia enjoy the gem you have acquired. From America with Love.
