Because his music promotes drug use.

I know this sounds like a jayx1esque thread but before you support banning artists because of what they promote, it could be your fav artist next.

I see no source. This post is NOT credible!

I believe your making reference to the 50 cent item, and you're right to due so. Precident is a scary thing and when you start setting questionable ones you never know what could happen.

Where Are The Tunes?
Good things happen to good people

well... there's "promoting" drug use (by playing trance music...?), and then there's the kind of rubbish 50 cent goes on about (Drugs, thugs, murder...)

Plus, 50 Cent has spent 7+ months in prison on felony drug charges... as far as I know, Tiesto has no criminal record.



Something interesting I found:

50 Cent, on his video game (which is rated Mature 17+):

"Just because it is rated mature doesn't mean you shouldn't buy it for your kids."


I would like to see him turned away at the border for his criminal record alone.

1. In what track does Tiesto promote drug use?
2. Many tracks that DO reference drug use are produced by producers, in studios - and never performed live. The only one I can think where the person who created a track that referenced drug use explictly and has performed it live is Green Velvet.

i can just see it, tiesto's new album

"Get high - or die tryin"

"Sex, DRUGS, and Rock n Roll"... sound familiar to anyone? An entire genre was built off of the dream of being a rock n roll superstar living this lifetstyle...

Besides... people do drugs at all types of concerts regardless of the genre... why does Trance "promote" this more? Perhaps more people do it in a club environment... but how does trance promote it more?

Drugs! whos saying drugs! i want drugs Gotta have them because im listning to tiesto!!!!!! ahahah bullshit stuff man.
50 is a wankster. end of story

i've heard hundreds of tracks with drug connotations preformed live in edm clubs.

tiesto also promotes club events where drugs get consumed.



DJ Tiesto - Live at The Docks - Toronto, Canada 06.11.03
01. Junkie XL - Red Pill, Blue Pill

a good amount of people think electronic music=rave scene=drugs. Which yes in some cases is true, but really anywhere you go drugs are usually around. club, house party, a park (lol), a creep ally, anywhere. And yes many tracks do make referance to drugs, but as ppl mentioned before so do many other types of music. I love tiesto! lol, i think its the whole rave scene that people automatically jump to the conclusion that everyone is on drugs. Not true!
