You can't, once a band or group loses their lead singer it's never the same and 90% of the time their out of music within a few years/split up.

Rarely does replacing a lead singer ever work out.

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.



You have no idea what you are talking about.

Krewella is dubstep

they try and dj and the suck at it. Its not easy to replace a dj if that was the case anyone could do it.

I'll go with the word of Deadmau5, someone much better and much more successful than Krewella.

LMAO @ Krewella is dubstep, maybe in 2012. Get Wet has about 2 tracks with dubstep.

Yes it is, very easy actually because they have big label money. Money talks.

They aren't hiring. The label will find them a tour DJ like a label does for singers by giving them a touring band. Then when they record a new album they'll have another top end high dollar producer because again, major label, that's what they do.

they don't need one and probably don't want one (why introduce another ego when it just failed?)

there are plenty of producers to make shite for them and beats to buy. they'll get some face to be their "DJ", not that it really matters

it may not be this pure EMD that you prefer but that's ok, b/c it's just not what they're going for, apparently

different strokes and all that

You mean he's right taking a fellow DJ's side, even though that side is a completely false made up story about him being "forced" out?

This thing will be thrown out in court with the swiftness, Rain Man was a nutcase alcoholic in and out of rehab, he brought being removed from the group on himself and now he's throwing a fit and praying he can get some $ out of a legal suite, which he won't.

So their shows are better with pre recorded drops and pretending to dj, than actually having someone on the decks.

You are showing you know nothing about electronic music. You are the perfect fan for them, they appeal to the lowest common denominator fan.

yea um no, they will sound like shite trying to dj and sing like they do now. Once again not anyone can just get on the decks and make their shows sound like before.

finding one to make their shows good is the issue, not in the studio

I know how a label works, im not arguing the studio stuff. Im talking about going on tour and doing shows and festivals. If they sound like shite trying to dj own their own or with some 4th rate guy back there. Even more people will bail on them. Seeing thousands of people leave their set at one of the biggest festivals in america was very refreshing.

They'll find someone plenty good enough to tour with them whenever they get ready to release a new album.

A label will always protect it's stars, especially when their first major album release on said label was a #1 chart topper.

Of course that's the case for mediocre pop artists, but it's as much about the fan as the quality of the band. Fans are stupid and think the singer is the utmost representation of the band. If you're talking about a supremely talented singer, that can absolutely be true. If you are talking about 2 mediocre singers, the truth gets a little less obvious.

More importantly than their voices:

4 titties plus 2 twats = irreplaceable

You sound just like their 16 year old fans

If they keep this up no one will see them at festivals. Which is how all these dj's and acts make the most of their money. If that keeps up then they will stop getting invited to festivals (which they don't get many good ones any way)

You keep saying they will find someone plenty good enough. But who????

But that's just an opinion, Krewella fans are all about the sisters, they don't give a frick about Rain Man.

Ehhhh, idk, I guess I'm talking within the last 10 years in music. You lose a lead singer, in any genre of music, you're usually toast. I can't remember many bands that have lost their lead singer, hired someone else, then maintained their fan base or grew a larger one. And singers leave all the time, especially in rock music.
