We all remember when Beamz By Flo was released, our favorite internet troll took to twitter making jokes of it. He even took it as a featured guest on his Coffee Run. In the latest Beamz commercial Flo Rida (or his team) took the jokes to a completely different level. The YouTube commercial is titled “Beamz By Flo- Even a Mouse Can Play.” The video at the end clearly shows the Mau5 head, that has been made famous and trademarked by none other than Joel Zimmerman aka Deadmau5. Joel took to twitter as usual voicing his opinion just as we are used to and love, talking about the illegality regarding the use of the Mau5 head. Check out what he had to say below as well as the controversial commercial.

.@beamzmusic i dont recall agreeing to any terms of you using my likeness and trademark to sell your shitty product.

tweets and parodies are all fun and games, but i feel that that looks like a legitimate advertisement, wouldn’t you agree?

Flo Rida is a faggot and everything associated with Flo Rida is faggotry.
Time for The Mau5 to increase his cheddar stash…..LAWSUIT!
lol Flo is screwed!
I believe the trademark entails the mask in its entirety; i.e. the eyes and the big smile on it. I don’t think he trademarked the shape; otherwise Mickey Mouse would have a run for his own money as well (Disney anyone)?
looks like flo rida is taking more than other peoples songs now
deadmau5 sue him no one will care if u do just do it
Fucked with the wrong guy.
SUE THAT MOFO!
Absolutely ridiculous, but not surprising. As someone on YouTube pointed out, Flo Rida can barely claim that more than 40% of any of his songs are actually his, because he samples and rips off EVERYONE. This is no exception.
I hope that the mau5 gets some fat stinky cheddar out of this deal.
What’s a Flo Rida?
I wonder is Disney has any say here lol
Why would he make a commercial for Beamz, deadmau5, WTF?
I think Beamz is the stupidest thing I have ever seen, however I think Deadmau5 needs to take it as a joke especially since he initiated the battle. I would like to see him man up and respond with his own parody video and 1up Beamz vs. talking about lawsuits? Seriously, going to court over something so stupid? This is prank war and he needs to step up!
It’s clearly made to appear the mau5 is endorsing it. Whether that stand in court I wouldn’t know, but anyone in the know can see that.
PLEASE SUE! This would be the best win ever!
soooo basically he’s saying this teaches you how to commit copyright infringement on popular EDM tunes/culture, which is what I’m gathering from the add since Flo Rida has built his entire career doing this. Not suprised he’s taking the idea one further from his tunes to his ads lol. Sue the shit out of him Mr. Zimmerman 🙂
