🤢🤢🤢🤢

I have a Bassnectar tattoo and I'm leaving it there to remind me that I should think about my choices before I make them.

got a friend on facebook been saying this for years and all his followers (mostly liberals) ignored it and denied it. Typical

Wait... child trafficking, child pornography, a high profile DJ 🤔 sounds to like hollywood“conspiracy theories” weren’t truly conspiracies were they? HBO are you listening Time to roll!!!! Oh wait, this doesn’t fit your narrative...never mind

There’s a whole IG full of girls with stories and discussions from edm forums that were written 10 years ago. This guys been up to no good for who knows how long. He deserves jail!

I really hope someone takes up the mantle of bassnectar and carry on with the curated events we part ways with Lauren Ashton and carry on the family that has become the bassnectar cult

webevanbailey nothing new but an official article

Depraved creep, with his clout he could have been with real women for free without any coercion.

Surely if he had done these things, he would be arrested rather than sued.
