From an article off of inthemix: #3 The Grammys do ‘EDM’, badly David Guetta. Chris Brown. Lil Wayne. Deadmau5. The Foo Fighters. If that sounds like a line-up for the collaboration no one wanted, then you’d be right. This was how the Grammys decided to pay tribute to the rise and rise of EDM at their 2012 ceremony. Watch as Guetta bops along to I Can Only Imagine and fiddles with the EQs, while Chris Brown croons and the words ‘worst human alive’ flash over his head (they don’t, but they should). Then comes the stiff Deadmau5/Foo Fighters mash-up (Grohl told MTV that “Deadmau5 is maybe the only EDM artist I know because we did a bunch of festivals over the summer”). If that sounds cringe-worthy, that’s because it was – watch below if you don’t believe us. The segment was so ham-fisted it even turned chart-friendly trio Swedish House Mafia off the idea of performing at the Grammys. Speaking to inthemix in March this year, Axwell simply put it: “The Grammys would probably feel like a monkey in a cage kind of situation.” Literally, I hate how they think they know anything EDM. David Guetta is trash, and so is Calvin Harris. Never say you listen to EDM if that is who you listen too.
