Afrojack Breaks Silence on Paris Hilton DJing

Most of you have seen or read about Paris Hilton's newest ambition being a DJ.  Over the weekend DJ Paris Hilton's Debut  as a DJ at the Pop Musical Festival in Brazil.  It didn't go so hot.  Okay it was a complete fail that saw her make almost every amateur dj mistake all within one set.

Surrounding the fiasco is her ex-boyfriend Afrojack.  Reason being was Nick (aka Afrojack) produced her original tracks and even had her touring with him.  Making it evident he was mentoring her closely. As a result he has come under fire from his fans and edm fans in general.  They proclaimed him a trader and a sell out.  It certainly was an interesting move for afrojack to combine business with pleasure, but it happened.

Afrojack has broken his silence surrounding the issue and released the statement to Dancing Astronaut.

Read it after the JUMP:


(DA) "As everybody knows, I have been working on some tracks with Paris a while ago, but her trying to become a DJ was a complete surprise to me. Then I saw the video and I think this proves once and for all that edm (or dance music as I call it) is all about skills and quality. It is simply not possible to become a good DJ unless you put lots of hard work and years of sweat in it. I’m afraid Paris underestimated this.

But I think this whole thing is really not important. Lets all do a giant facepalm flashmob and continue with what we were doing, loving our culture and sharing our passion for the music."
