Deadmau5 might not be playing at Ultra Music Festival this year but, like many of us, he’s watching on from afar with the help of the live stream.
Deadmau5 Responds to Krewella Billboard Op-Ed With String of Profane Tweets
Some days ago Krewella's Jahan Yousaf wrote an op-ed for Billboard about sexism in the music industry and the hateful online environment -- cheekily headlined "Deadmau5 Saved Me From Going Into Porn".
She specifically pointed to two tweets from deadmau5 that took aim at the EDM group and triggered an ugly fan response.
Well, deadmau5 needed a lot more than two tweets to fire back.
Below, see the NSFW string of 13 tweets that deadmau5 fired off last night, plus Yousaf's last word.
