i get why this dude tweeted this now
Can't believe once upon a time Diplo was actually an artist and a respectable producer.
He's neither now. Just a trendhopper and dikkrider that hops one whatever is hot or "trending" and exploits it...shyt...not even good at that...and culture vulture number 1. Taking the music of underground scenes from the hood (B-More, Philly Club, Juke, Bounce, etc) and from the favelas (zouk, baile funk, kuduro, etc) and makes it marketable for suburban american teenagers. But yeah...incredibly callous.
I can't remember the last time I heard a Diplo track that wasn't featuring atleast two other producers.
he getting money off the edm shyt. whether people like it or not, waka birthed the whole EDM scene and them white boys took it and turned it into something worldwide in the club scene.
No he didn't. StAHP! EDM was a thing long before waka even touched a microphone. Really the people who birthed this current EDM scene were people like Diplo, A-Trak, Deadmau5, Justice, and Daft Punk indirectly along with others. Back in 2006-2008 it was just some blog hipster tastemaker stuff...then dubstep blew up around 2010...then Skrillex blew up in like 6 months...then Baauer came with that trap EDM stuff along with Carnage and DJ Snake...then it just all became mainstream and cheesy with Electric Daisy Ultra Music Tomorrowland type festivals that just milked the scene til it couldn't even be underground anymore. Waka had absolutely nothing to do with it other than being that rapper that had a couple of his tracks spun by dubstep and trap djs...(dubstep morphed into trap IMO).
REally before then, EDM was just rave...really EDM is that all encapsulating term made to market electronic music and all of it's subgenres under one umbrella.
Let's not pretend like Waka was an amazing rapper with amazing range 
maybe he should start beefs with paris hilton and aoki
he didn't birth shyt
