Does deadmau5 have beef with Swedish House Mafia and NSYNC’s Joey Fatone? His latest comments are suspect, at the very least.
The DJ was responding to the question, “How would you describe @swedishousemfia getting back together to someone who doesn’t know anything about dance music?”
“Same way I'd describe Joey Fatone's solo career,” he responded, shading several artists in one go (Fatone never had a solo singing career after NSYNC).

Most fans commented that the DJ’s opinion was harsh, but accurate. But there were those who took him to task for it. The Niagara Falls, Ontario native, however, didn’t take them seriously.

And then he posted this tweet, which works as both a swipe at Swedish House Mafia and NSYNC: “[WE'RE] GETTIN THE BAND BACK TOGETHER BOYS.”
WERE GETTIN THE BAND BACK TOGETHER BOYS.

But soon he took his comment back. Well, at least what he said about Fatone.
“Guys. Relax. It was a joke! Joey Fatone is probably a cool guy.”
