The reason? These tweets were posted in retaliation to Deadmau5’s tweets directed at Kanye West, which publicly accused him of pirating music software.

Kanye had tweeted a screenshot showing that he was listening to Sufjan Steven’s “Death With Dignity.” This tweet acted as the spark that started the flame, as the screenshot also revealed that Kanye had a tab open to PirateBay, a popular music torrenting site.

Deadmau5 jumped on this and shared a few rather colorful comments on Twitter, beginning the battle between the two artists.

Though this strife had no clear winner, Deadmau5 wrapped it all up excellently with this final word on the subject…
