well .. what to say. Greedy comes to my mind and some respected underground dj's who promoted his track few months back should maybe doublecheck dubious artists before doing so ..

regardless of the fact that i think deadmau5 is a douche, don johnson sounds like a bigger douche... if i even believe whether that article is telling the whole truth. that just sounds very bizarre. almost sounds like a publicity stunt.

I can hardly blame Deadmau5 taking the money, who here wouldn't? Anyone that thinks their integrity is worth more than $200 k to play a single track is a moron.

But Don Johnson is a fucking deadbeat and a narcissist retard. I bet he screams his own name when he jacks off.

I think That deadmau5 doesnt need the money to do that. The same way, Mr Johnson could have requested a track of Rhianna or bieber or any other, Would you??

$200,000 for playing 1 track - I don't care if I need the money or not. For something that amounts to cueing up a song and pressing play and for something that wouldn't have even been noticed or made the papers if it wasn't for Johnson being a deadbeat?

Think about that for a second.
