Diplo calls a fellow DJ a “baby penis”

The comical beef kicked off when Diplo innocently enough announced his remix of Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You”.

Diplo is recently involved in a Twitter spat this week with fellow producer Oliver Heldens.

The dispute began when Dutch DJ Heldens spoke critically of Major Lazer’s Ed Sheeran remix of single ‘Shape Of You’. He wrote: “No offense, but this remix could have been so much better. Next time send me and let’s collab”.

If I wanted to make a future house remix with the same bassline over and over again I will hit you up you baby penis,” Diplo replied, describing Heldens as looking like “a nine year old with a beard”.

 

Wanted to say a few things?First, I wanna say it's great to be touring again, the shows have been so good and are only getting better, thank you so much for all your love and positive energy, I'm very excited for the big summer ahead?? Second, I want to let you know I've been working on a lot of different pieces of music the last few years, there's a lot of exciting stuff coming up! I'll always keep pumping out these club bangers either as @officialhilo or Oliver Heldens, proper club music fills the biggest hole in my heart when it comes to music. But last few years I've also been working a lot on writing songs/vocals together with some very talented people and I'm super excited about some of the songs I'm working on rn? I feel like the coming few years are gonna be very exciting for me, I'm gonna show lots of different sides of myself musically and I think I'll (pleasantly) surprise a lot of you with the new music ? Ok! Enough typing/talking, I hope to see you soon on the dance floor and I wish you a great rest of your weekend, love ya! ?✌️(pic @bybartjansen ?)

Dillon Francis soon waded in, as he and Diplo posted an old press photo of Heldens mocked up as a Gap advert.

Heldens soon cleared up that he hadn’t been meaning to cause offence, saying: “We Dutchies are sometimes a bit too straightforward lol, I’m def not a hater, but I like to speak my mind.” Diplo then tweeted, suggesting that the whole thing had been cleared up: “lol Guys this is over me and Oliver love each other”.
