Was rumored for awhile Kris was kicked out when he stopped appearing at shows with them but they denied, and now it's out and he's suing the Yousaf sisters.

quote:

The story of Krewella starts out like an American fable: Two sisters and one former boyfriend from a Chicago, Illinois suburb form a music group, and using some social media savvy, rocket to fame as headliners of popular EDM festivals worldwide. Unfortunately, now the trouble happens: Kris Trindl, a founding member, is suing sisters Jahan Yousaf and Yasmine Yousaf for at least $5 million for kicking him out of the group and for allegedly violating an oath that dates back to the time when the three had "6-8-10" tattooed onto their bodies.

I actually agree with the decision to remove him, he's a little bitch and the girls make Krewella not him.

Dime a dozen when it comes to producing beats, especially when you're signed to such a major label.

He jelly and ain't getting shite from this lawsuit.

They're terrible since he's been out, so I don't really agree that he's worthless.

Their concerts over the last few months without him are much better. Especially his awful dubstep kicks.

Good stuff regardless though.

It's not the success that people hate. It's the fact that they're pure gimmick and lack talent.

They peaked before they started doing the live act. Should have stuck to having Rainman mix and the girls head banging and drinking behind the table.

Who called it non-music? I called them almost-musicians. Let me know when one of them pulls out an actual musical instrument.

I haven't listened to Krewella since 2013. For the most part, my edm taste has transitioned to the many variations of deep house.

so tired of electro house, and dubstep. I dont know what happened, so much noise. I saw them at ultra 2012, and in nola, i think the same year.

I listen to anything for the most part as long as it has clean vocals. I can't do no vocals EDM, but luckily now most have vocals.

Proximity mixes on YouTube >>>>

You are insane

Rainmain was their DJ, they were an act. A DJ and two good looking bitches who can sing. Hes more than just a producer. Ive seen them "DJ" and it was embarrassing. Even my friend who was a Krewella fan wanted to leave the stage. Pre recorded drops and just acting like they were twisting knobs. It was a joke.

All those songs and tracks featuring Krewella is just them singing and nothing else.

Its called being an adult

Im happy to see deep house, tech house and techno exploding back home. Its always been huge here.

Those crowds are much more mature.

That's how the group is supposed to be, they sing, that's what they do.

They'll hire through their label a top end producer and keep right on going.

You can't replace singers, but you can easily replace a DJ/producer when you're signed to a gigantic label.

Rain Man thought a little too highly for himself, and his dubstep influences suck arse anyways. Glad he's gone. The catchiness of their vocals are what got them where they are and why other large artists want to feature them on their tracks.
