Two Twitter accounts posted several screen captures of conversations where individuals shared chilling tales of the artist encouraging women to take drugs on his tour bus, forcing himself on reluctant fans. One comment details someone's experience who was allegedly "so drunk she couldn't recall her own name" who was left by the artist on the hood of a car alone and inebriated. Following the accusations, users began to dig up old offensive Tweets from Datsik's official account that made light of rape. (The Tweets have since been deleted.) https://twitter.com/_princesssjay?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fmixmag.net%2Fread%2Fmultiple-accusations-of-datsik-sexually-assaulting-women-have-surfaced-online-news
Well, shit. I've only ever listened to like, two of his tracks, but this sure as doesn't make me want to associate with any more of his work. But hey, at least I'm glad it came out now and not ten years down the line. Glad to see people are seemingly far more willing to call people out on this shit than they were a decade or two ago.
Jesus, what an asshole. I like his music and I was planning to see him if he ever came to my part of my states but the stories are disgusting
As much as I'd hate to say it I can believe it, he was one of the people that made Dubstep famous in a lot of places and I'm sure that sort of fame went to his head. While I'll definitely wait for more info on this situation, something like this isn't exactly unheard of in the music world, and its pretty ridiculous how much shit like this has gone on without anyone blinking an eye. I'd like to hope this isn't the truth but I can't help but see it from the perspective of a fan/groupie, that shit seems scary to me and I can't even imagine how often stuff like this has and will continue to happen. http://www.mixmag.net/assets/uploads/images/_twoThirds/Screen-Shot-2018-03-14-at-8.32.06-PM.png Like I said, I'll reserve judgement until there's more proof, but that tweet really does say something about the guy if its real.
interesting. his attitudes towards women must be as dated as his music
[blob:https://imgur.com/1e1b4605-dc65-4c0d-8988-bd7f9e59a379] His career is over.
He's also stepped down from his label Firepower Records. His career is dead! Also funny to note: he was already subject to some controversy to his whole 'ninja' gimmick, which MYRNE gladly roasted him for over and over: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/337983926633103362/423950057029500928/unknown.png?width=465&height=702 https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/337983926633103362/423950114634072065/unknown.png https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/337983926633103362/423951116519079958/unknown.png Also, funny to note, some allegations were also made by Space Jesus who supported on the tour but Wooli (another producer) and some others instantly refuted those claims. But literally no one refuted the claims against Datsik...
Maybe it's physiologically impossible to be famous without being a rapist. as soon as you acquire more than fifty thousand followers your dick automatically takes over your frontal lobes and forces you to commit acts of sexual offense while simultaneously making it so that they are well hidden enough to not be revealed until decades later but at the same time not well enough to be actually hidden. The only way to escape it is to strap yourself to a chair every 24 hours and wait for it to go away.
Tons of people in positions of authority and fame can live that life and get what they want without resorting to raping and abusing fans and groupies. Its less to do with sex and more with asserting power, its the same with all the abuse in Hollywood, its nothing to do with sexual desire. Its about feeling powerful over someone else.
I'm sure that it has plenty of things to do with sexual desire as well, there are plenty of other ways to feel powerful than just through sex.
