Rusko throws a tantrum and disses Houston, TX

Sorry if the twitter link doesnt post correctly. I'm doing this on my iphone. Just saw this and wanted to put this guy on blast. I'm from Texas and kinda took offense to it. I've been to Stereo Live, where he played, and the sound system there kicks ass. Don't know what exactly set him off but as I read somewhere earlier, maybe he woke up and realized that he was playing Dubstep. Lol

When I believe of Dubstep nowadays, I don't have anything positive to say. It's all becoming too mainstream for me. Few UK'ers are bringing out the good stuff, like labels Hessle Audio, Swamp81 etc. But just like almost every music scene, it'll get popular and underground producers/DJ's become popstars.

Mainstream, please keep away from Techno.

Loved Dubstep when it was like this:



Hell, even Dizzee Rascal used to put out some good dubstep songs which he rapped over!



10 years ago, I was still 10 . Didn't know what I was hearing! Even tho it's Grime.

hahah!

Any ways... go flame skrillex... he deserves the hate... rusko's rage is merely a bi product of the perverse american dub step scene that he so despertly tried to be a part of... which in turn paved the way for his "new style" which is nothing like what he started with... the same can be said for BASSNECTAR.... he fell off too IMO in the wake of skrillex madness demanded by every 16 yar old kid on e in the country.

I'm right there with you ... rusko fell off for sure... but all you guys flaming him are MORONS. YES.. HE FELL OFF... but his early music is gangster.... .... .. .. . . . So what... he fell off trying to stack some skrillex loot from the masses.... rusko is one of the OG's right up there with Hatcha, Benga, Skream... DMZ... all those fools... stop talking shit.. simple minded fools.

Pointless Update: "Due to extreme dehydration and under doctor's orders, Rusko is unfortunately being forced to postpone the next three shows." Two days after the Houston incident and a day after falling off stage in Dallas.

And we all know what this means

Weed is fine with me, but vodka and xanex is kinda crossing the line. And actually too much vodka by itself is also a no go in my book.

I dig some of his older jams like Big Choppa and such, but lately his music just sounds too much like Borgore's new stuff, forced. I understand that some people have moments when they lose it and the pressure of life gets to you, we've all been there, but he shouldn't have acted like a child on stage in front of people who paid money to come see him. Talking to the sound engineer after the show would have been a better solution. But really guys, some of these posts are fucking ridiculous. Dude that just straight put LanceBiase on blast, that was un called for. He's a pretty cool guy and we are here to help each other progress as DJ's, and yeah laughing at a mis-hap is a fun thing to do when it happens, but insulting someone because they like other things is stupid. Oh well, I also saw a pic from last evening of them putting ole' Rusky in a ambulance. Comments?

I follow him on facebook (don't do the twitter thing) and I've been to more than a couple of his live shows. He puts on a quite talented set, if you're into that style of music. And his sound? If not anything else, it's totally his own.

Everyone has bad moments. "Celebrity" DJ's do too, and while I can't say I approve of this type of behavior, drugs do silly things to all sorts of people and I know Rusko's someone who doesn't hide his use of such things. For good or ill.

I still have a crazy amount of respect for him as a producer and DJ. He helped make Dubstep what it is today, which is a serious accomplishment.

I'm also really kind of bothered by the just straight slamming of a producer based on a single bad video clip of them, without any type of research. And I know for a fact a lot of people love to shit all over anything Dubstep related, but maybe you can take a second and replace "dubstep" with any other genre, and believe of it in that light.

So he messed up, and got pissed about a show. We don't know the reasons behind it, it doesn't open the bloody doors to start crapping in circles about a genre of music a lot of people like, and a very talented producer in that particular genre.

And I know some of you guys posting are not into Dubstep at all, that's fine.

He was acting like a kid, for whatever reason. I don't know it, you don't know it, and whatever. Knock on him for that. But don't --- Here's where I stopped reading
Give your own opinion on Rusko. Don't tell other people what to believe or say about the douche<--(my opinion)

He was acting like a kid, for whatever reason. I don't know it, you don't know it, and whatever. Knock on him for that. But don't kid about his production, because it's seriously spot on for what it is. Unless you're completely well versed in something, it just shows an utterly huge amount of ignorance and unwillingness to learn.

I don't usually get fired up about such things, and wasn't expecting to when reading the initial post. A celeb DJ doing something stupid, what's new? What bother's me is the responses from the community in this thread knocking on not the act, but taking it to new levels.

Look into some of his production videos, and research the guy before you all out blast him and the style of music he plays. While you may not like Dubstep yourself, it doesn't mean it's okay to shit about it.

One of the biggest lessons people fail to carry through life is: "If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all." I realize this is the internet, and that point is completely moot because people will do fuckall and not care about the consequences, but I believe it's an important thing to believe of before you say anything.

Because sometimes it's better to be quiet and have people wonder if you're an idiot before you open your mouth and prove it to them.


edit:
Cooled down a bit, and I realize what I said was probably a bit over the top. But man, I really love this community and it's always been a place where we sit around and help each other out, rather than just blasting the shit out of people doing stupid things, and shitting on genre's of music we don't particularly favor. That's what got to me more than anything in this thread, and I should have just taken my own advice and not said anything at all. Not going to delete the post though, because I still feel it's poignant, but seriously, this isn't why I come to this website and that's what bothered me more than anything. Rusko's a decent guy who had a bad fallout, but shitting over things doesn't get anyone anywhere. And things just got out of hand here, myself included.

I understand what you're saying, but this is a "thread", not to be confused with a "community ". A community contains many threads. It's how we choose to weave these threads that decides the pattern of the community . In order to understand the community , we must first go inside the threads that create the community . One must understand that the community is but a container for threads and if we look at the very idea of a woven threaded stringy string of strings ... umm ... well .. I don't know where this is going but the point I'm making is: The title of this thread speaks for the content therein and does not represent the community , on the whole!

Guys, guys, you 're missing the point.

We should all agree that rusko was acting like a 13 year old drama queen that had her first massive period and was crying and raging about and that somehow some sand got in her vagina and that only made things worse.

Um, there actually wasn't any disrespect towards others on this thread until dripstep got his panties in a bundle and started whining about "hating" (another kitten dead) on Rusko. Incidentally, this thread is about our opinions on the character of this assclown(my opinion) Rusko. If dripstep has an opinion, he is more than welcome to share it like the rest of us. The only disrespect on this thread, so far, was dripstep attempting to stifle the dissent about how Rusko threw a fit like a 6 year old girl. The fact that his music may, or may not, suck, is completely subjective to the perception of the individual. It's disrespectful to call someone a "hater" (sorry kitties) for simply voicing their opinion. Power to the people!

The reason why it creates and inspires threads like this is professional acts are hyped, promoted and marketed as perfect - so when a crack shows in their otherwise perfect appearance it entertains people - it shows they are human and takes the shine off someone who up until that show had the respect of alot more people than he does since his diva strop.

It's all shits and giggles - it doesn't mean anything dude, relax.
