DJ Casper, a 58-year-old American artist who had a worldwide smash with Cha Cha Slide, has died. He died in 2016 after being diagnosed with kidney and liver cancer.

Casper, who was born Willie Perry Jr. in Chicago and remained there for the rest of his life, devised Cha Cha Slide in 1998 as a musical training routine for his personal trainer nephew, and its popularity quickly grew in the Chicago area.

The song was signed locally first, then by a large label, propelling it to international prominence. It quickly became a favorite at weddings, children’s parties, sporting events, and other gatherings thanks to its line-dancing routine and enthusiastic commands from Casper (who published it as Mr C the Slide Man).
