I had a "friend" in high school who was insufferable for his music tastes. If you said a artists name wrong he would mock you, liked something popular or mainstream? he would mock you. I remember him showing me "the actually good artists" like Die Antwoord. I listened to like half a song and then just said this sucks. Like it wasn't even remotely enjoyable at all and just was a bad listening experience. He then berated me for not knowing good music and they are the "next step in music and online art". I always got a weird vibe from Die Antwoord and after that experience with a fan of theirs it made me steer clear of other fans as well.

[@suzbone]

Yup. I'm pushing 60 and immediately thought they looked like genuinely bad people. Just real bad vibes, and specifically catering to a real shitty audience. Hell no.

[@timornoscommovet1111]

I used to know a guy similair to your mentioned "friend". When i was around 13 or 14 years old i was heavily into Brostep (Dubstep is that different, more reggae influenced style from UK) of any kind. And the guy i used to hang out with only wanted to hear Skrillex and nothing else (of whom only his very first releases from 2010 to 11 are actually the style of Brostep, which he even helped to shape with those). Because everytime i showed him a track from any different producer, without me even asking him about his opinion he started with: "You know exactly what my opinion on this track is. Yes, it sucks of course". Music and doing things like drinking, weed and other stuff should be enjoyed with the right people who appreciate you and your taste. Otherwise such experiences will end in a social disaster and some dumb to even hurting memories

Okay, so he's gay but he's touching up Anri in the toilets. Make that make sense. That video pissed me off so much on so many levels. I was a big Die Antwoord fan since the 2000s and had seen them several times. I even traveled to see them. I don't know what I expected. When someone *tells* you who they are *believe them* but I thought they were artists, not just scumbags. Then the Zehani stuff came out, and wow. It's not the 1st time I've found out an artist I liked was a creep. Anri is even worse, imo because she not only uses her fame but also her womanhood to facilitate Watkins' deplorable behavior.

Ah yes. I remember bumping into this duo on Sunset Blvd outside a shop called Pop Killer Clothing. It was below my studio at the time and I was having a cigarette break in the sidewalk. I was signed to the same label as them at the time (Interscope / Cherry Tree Records) and I went to say hello as they walked past me to say hello to a fellow label mate who was signed by the same dude (Martin K). Ninja stopped and looked at me and I said a word he said “can’t you see I’m in my phone?” I looked down and he was holding nothing. I was about to was sorry and before I did he pulled his phone out his pocket and proceeded to walk past me and on into the store. It was from that moment I knew that at the bare minimum these people were not playing a character and were not very nice. I never followed up after that. I just went back to my cig. Fun fact I got berated by the A&R man when they were playing me DA’s music asking for my opinion. I said “you know they’re comedians right?” He was outraged and said if I wanted to continue working at Interecope I need to start appreciating the roster more. Happened on Fairfax and Melrose. I remember it like it was yesterday. The A&R nearly kicked me out the car there and then. Ah 2011. What a time to be a no name pop singer / dogs body.

Other than vocals I don't really recall them actually making music.

Being a DJ and finding their music on the request list was why I played it. Had I chosen to play it according to lyrics I wouldn't have chosen it but the beats , patches , build ups plateaus and drops are what made it sound amazing.
