Deadmau5 took to twitter today in most unexpected fashion to complain about the latest: his inclusion in the compilation That’s What I Call EDM 2014 alongside the likes of Afrojack, Avicii, Armin Van Buuren, Martin Garrix and many more.

However, his rant doesn’t end there. Joel Zimmerman goes on to send tweet after tweet ripping Universal Music Group for their inclusion of Suckfest9001 as the opening track in the compilation.

I don’t give a fuck. If I’m misrepresented by a company in Palau even… You better believe I’m going to get on that shit.

Some artists fight the silent battle of misrepresentation, but Deadmau5 will never hesitate to use his powerful voice to defend himself and rip those who have wronged him. Now, to see what repercussions this might have upon UMG and Joel‘s relationship…
Wasn’t that the name of Bear Grillz’ EP before it was changed? (There’s being a pisstake name, of course.)
Known for wearing a mousehead, being a general prick and a song that hit the radio – irony?
Deadmau5 is exactly whatever he is. He just doesn’t like what he is.
Where is Chris Liebing ?
Boring song, boring artist and boring compilation I think it fits perfectly.
Lol!!!!! It’s true he is right….
LOL
Not “EDM.” Just commercialized “party” music.
Now this is what i call EDM. LMFAO! worst name for a compilation ever
I’m so sick of deadmau5, he’s acting like a 14 year old girl and I’m sure I’m not the only one but I’m so fucking sick of it!
