He did not even effectively invent dubstep

He's about 10 years late into the game

You can't argue that he popularized it though.

Everyone can agree that his revolutionary musical style is at a level once thought unreachable.

Are you talking about the lowest level, the one that makes people scream "Turn that off"?

I directed this to op's poll. And I don't want to have this discussion of what musician it the greater one because such a discussion should not exist anyways.

To be honest I don't think I have ever listened to one of his songs.

I'm an Anarchist. I don't need a government to be a good person, but I'm glad it's here because some of you clearly do.

Best musician of all time? No, I disagree.

Why do I not hold him in the same regard as the Beatles? Because he only makes one type of music, that we can all identify. It's all extreme music.

Because he has yet to traverse multiple genres successfully.

"It means we all shoot at the big blue thing together!"
"Okay!"

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

The Beatles might be a little overrated by some, but I honestly wouldn't want to declare Skrillex the best musician of all time, or the voice or our generation. That is even more overrated.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

How do people even fall for troll threads like this?

Regardless of whether you like Skrillex/Beatles better, which is an absurd comparison anyway, how do people actually take some randomly blurted out opinion presented as fact as a means to troll people seriously?

It's like...I don't even have an analogy for how people fall for this

Just troll. Incredibly obvious one at that. It saddens me to see so many people take him seriously even after the ludicrous statements that he has made.

Sure they're somewhat different in style but I would not go so far as to say they were all different genres.

I'd have to agree with Chaz in this. While the Beatles have certainly written some great pieces, those examples weren't the best in proving the point, I think. Those three Beatles songs are radio hits. U2 radio hits are mainly their 80's songs with the traditional U2 sound.

I'd (while not surprisingly) argue that U2 have tinkered with other genres much more than the Beatles and Skrillex. While my ears may be partial to U2's music, feel free to make a judgement with these examples.

And that was one of the coolest moments in the game.
