Kayzo Shares Opinions On Industry Through Twitter
In this day and age, there is no shortage of opinions on the topic of music, especially EDM. Every artist has their opinion on what the genre should consist of, even if they don’t outwardly promote that opinion. Up and coming electronic artist Kayzo took to Twitter Sunday night to share his thoughts with his followers.
Too many artists giving up on "rave music" because they need to make a "record" now to survive. They dont even know why they do it besides $

The doors are open between edm & "pop" Don't fall for the trap. There's ways to stay true. Find ways to combine the worlds in an honest way

Just irks me when artists talk shit on rave music and just wanna hit millions on streams now. Stop acting like you're too cool for this

Last thing. There's is nothing different between a "banger" and a "song" it's all frequencies that share the same spectrum. Stop being wack

Kayzo’s comments resonate with anyone that worries about the culture of EDM being tainted by people who are only interested in making money at the cost of the music. His comments opened up the floor for debate from many of his followers. People threw out big time names such as The Chainsmokers and DJ Snake as these artists particularly tend to be the subject matter of similar discussions. Kayzo promptly responded to these claims.
Literally about no one in particular

Ironically both DJ Snake and The Chainsmokers liked his tweets even when his fanbase was mistaking them for his targets. The artist also garnered support from fellow peers Herobust and Getter amongst others.

Some people may take these opinions the wrong way, but it seems as though Kayzo is coming from the right place with his concern. The culture of EDM and “rave” music is special and all of the producers and artists who claim to be a part of that culture should be trying to enrich it instead of using it for their own benefit.
