I find it funny how much people don't seem to get Deadmau5.

So many of my friends on FB have had the same reaction as you, WTF?!?

It's not anything all that strange, it's just dance music. It's just so funny to see how everyone over a certain age doesn't like Deadmau5. To me it looks like it's clearly an age thing. My nephew is 12 and he and his friends love Deadmau5.
It just seem like when my parents hated and didn't understand rap music.

Huh. I had no idea he was Canadian. - Reagen Feb 13, 08:29 3
- You're old. Much Music HAS hyped the hell out of the guy. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 13, 08:46
- Oh, like Drake? -- nm - Beryllium Feb 13, 08:39
- I thought it rather obvious. - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 13, 08:32
I was in college when techno was big. Therefore, I can't complain about any other dance music that isn't techno ever again. -- nm - con_carne Feb 13, 08:24
I wrote last night that I think I would enjoy seeing one of his shows, but from a slightly detached location, say a balcony overlooking the crowd. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 13, 08:18
maybe. I don't hate dance music, though. -- nm - loosilu Feb 13, 08:14
You nailed it on the head. 12 year old love him because they've never been to a real club, etc. - MDH Feb 13, 08:13 3
- This is their thing that their parents aren't listening to. - Krusty Feb 13, 08:21
- So he's Drake. -- nm - TFox Feb 13, 08:19 1
  - YES! These kids don't know any better. I love you for this analogy. -- nm - MDH Feb 13, 08:21
Speaking of: Where *was* the rap music last night? - ty97 Feb 13, 08:12 6
- Nas and others might be right and hip hop is dead. - Krusty Feb 13, 08:24 3
  - I was talking about rap with a friend who until recently was a huge rap fan. He says artistically there's little new/innovative going on right now. -- nm - con_carne Feb 13, 08:31 2
    - Yup. The genre hasn't grown much since expanding to embrace southern and midwest rappers more. - Krusty Feb 13, 08:42
    - Who hosted the show? - Spawn - The Blood Feud God Feb 13, 08:33
- The only performance I bet they tried to land (other than Nicki) was Jay and Ye, and Jay's a little busy these days. - TFox Feb 13, 08:14 1
  - neither he or Kanye were there last night IIRC -- nm - Beaker Feb 13, 08:15
