Suddenly resurgent dance music icon Nile Rodgers decided to open himself up to fans of his decades-spanning career via an amazing Ask Me Anything session on Reddit. The Chic guitarist and disco producer opened up the floor for questions after dropping a few nuggets about his music career like the fact that "Le Freak" is the most successful single in Atlantic Records history (or that, all told, through playing, performing, writing and producing, Rodgers has sold 223 million records worldwide).
