Chris MartinsOl' “Dirty Laundry” Diplo has done it again. Last night he took to Twitter to air some grievances, and chief among those was yet another record that he's contributed to.
Last time, of course, it was M.I.A.'s latest, Maya, an album that he dissed yet again only a week and a half ago. But on Sunday night, he had words for the pending second LP from Major Lazer, his dancehall project with U.K. producer Switch.
In an hour-plus session marked by hashtags like #lonely, #sad, #nocable and #tipsy, Diplo also called out Rusko, talked shit to Nikki Sixx, racialized dubstep and took a pot shot at that ridiculous movie about owls with super powers.
Some men sip sizzurp, others hork the haterade. Witness …
… Diplo, on his partner Switch and an as yet unnamed new Major Lazer LP:
Exhibit A: Diplo makes a preemptive strike against potential haters?
Diplo fan Guillermo Ruballo responds, referring to the last M.I.A. record, “Maya.”
Again, Diplo sets the record straight (while possily warping it a little).
… Diplo, responding to a friend's post about the dubstep genre (Rusko, et al.):
Hard to tell whether this is an endorsement or a diss.
Diplo's message is a little more clear.
… Diplo, responding to a pollyannaish post from Nikki Sixx:
All is well for the member of Mötley Crüe.
Our favorite hater rains (quite awesomely) on the parade.
… Diplo, on Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole:
Yeah, we're gonna have to side with D on this one too.
While Switch and Rusko were silent, Major Lazer himself (the fictional cartoon Jamaican cyborg, that is), did have this to say:
Watch out Dipstick. Di Lazer mon is comin' fi you. (#fakepatios)
