Deadmau5 blasts Justin Bieber as a “meat puppet”
The outspoken producer's also offered an olive branch to Skrillex
Deadmau5, real name Joel Zimmerman, is no stranger to a heavyweight diss, with Avicii, Steve Aoki and Paris Hilton among those to have felt the brunt of his outbursts.
He's had beef with Skrillex this year after asserting that Jack Ü's collaboration with Justin Bieber (pictured) "blows donkeys balls", but a new video rant has revealed Biebz is the cause of all his anger.
In an expletive-filled tirade, Zimmerman slams Bieber as a "meat puppet" who relies on other people to create his tracks, revealing that his issue with Skrillex is that he props Bieber up.
He explains: "I can accept that [Bieber's] album is probably good, I have no qualms with that. I know decent production when I hear it. What I'm mad about is that none of it is this little fucking dickhead's.
"It's not your fucking album, it's fucking Skrillex's album, it's fucking god-knows-who's album. It's not that I hate Skrillex and I hate the shit he does, I hate that he allowed himself to be a god damn tool for someone else."
He continues in much the same vein for a while and you can watch the full seven minutes below.
