Canadian music producer, Datsik has been all the talk of EDM news today after being accused of several counts of sexual misconduct with women over a long period of time. Datsik’s management, label and booking agency have all dropped the artist. All of Datsik’s scheduled performances have been cancelled.
Earlier this week, numerous accusations of sexual misconduct by Datsik began circulating social media. The accusations ranged from encouraging women to take drugs in his tour bus to forcing himself on other women. It all started with a single post by one fan which led others to open up about their own personal incidents.

Apparently Datsik’s tour staff even handed out backstage passes with the name ‘Tulsa’ on them – a word which read in the mirror would read ‘a slut’?

I was given this 2 years ago in Orlando when I was invited on Datsik’s tour bus. pic.twitter.com/Q2GT9mlcHK

Datsik himself did respond with a statement after a long period of silence. Evidently, it’s pretty clear that this isn’t enough and is a sorry excuse of an explanation or apology.

Undoubtedly, several fellow artists from the EDM community have spoken up about the incident. Some, even breaking away from the artist completely.

Yo bro, your deception isn't fooling anyone but yourself. Own up to your actions and accept the consequences. Have some fucking honor.

All I’m gonna say right now is what goes around comes around and you’ll always get what’s coming to you. Be a good person and good things will come… be a horrible fucking human being and eventually it’ll bite you in the ass. Simple enough

The worst part about all this datsik stuff is the scumbags that are coming out and supporting it saying stupid shit like "they're just a bunch of hoes/groupies" or "what did they expect to happen backstage?"
Christ, who the fuck is raising you people?

Dude you got all these allegations and that’s the best you can do? That was a weak sauce response and nobody is going to believe it. Not when numerous girls in different cities are saying the same thing. #fail

The future does look rather gloomy for the dubstep DJ. His upcoming show in Iowa has already been cancelled and we’re pretty sure more will follow. People like Datsik need to know they can’t take advantage of fans in such a manner and in no way is he gonna get off the hook easily.
