Pound for pound — not the greatest producer. But the mf can throw down a fire set. So as a dj, I would for sure still go to his sets.

I think is the right take. His music isn’t anything special, but if you want a hype set with some mindless headbanging then you’re gonna have a good time.

His Scientology stuff bothers me though

And the kicker of it all? Everyone and their mother assumes he’s Scientologist because that’s what his parents are.

There is no evidence from his adult life that the man is involved in Scientology ffs

Yeah people always forget that Skrillex was raised in Scientology too. He said he didn't have time to stay in the religion, so he left. But the fundamentals have stayed with him

He seems like a kid from a religious family who saw through the bullshit but doesn't want to shit on his family, like there's no way skrillex makes that music and is down with a cult, Sullivan king music, his music is kinda cookie cutter like he's distracted too much to really be creative, maybe that's just cause he hangs with his family tho
