A day after the latest political Twitter feud starting with Jai Wolf and Ghastly, and eventually involving Ookay, Jauz, Hotel Garuda, Chet Porter, other artist managers, and more, LA-based producer has joined the fray and seems particularly hellbent on calling out artists managed by Moe Shalizi, specifically.
Shalizi is a power manager in the EDM world, signing acts like Marshmello, Ookay, Jauz, Ghastly, Tiësto, Slushii, Sikdope, Maejor, and more, so it would logically follow that others might feel threatened by him. AWE in particular chose to engage in yesterday’s kerfuffle by calling out Shalizi’s artists specifically, since Ghastly was the main instigator, we suppose.
these $halizi brands aren't artists lmao don't trick urself into thinking they are

Slushii and Jauz in particular chimed in, defending their boss, but also themselves as they were among those accused of not being artists.
We’re all actual, real humans. But because all of us work together and are successful that gets thrown out the window. Think b4 u speak https://t.co/8vYOcFnxDK

For his attempt at chiming in and joining the side of the “righteous” in this particular Twitter spat, AWE managed to only make himself look foolish and bigoted and nothing more. Better luck next time.
