Rusko

Rusko's show at Stereo Live back in May didn't go so well, so it's a little surprising to see the bad boy of dubstep back in Houston so soon. The 27-year-old British DJ and producer cursed and wobbled his way through a bass-drenched set that was one of the raunchier sets in recent memory at the Richmond EDM palace. Later the mohawked one really gave it to the Stereo Live sound engineer on Twitter, and a crafty cell-phone cameraperson caught a Grade-A tantrum outside Rusko's tour bus. Don't expect an apology, just more filthiness and probably some new cuts from the KAPOW EP he just released on iTunes for the price of either a tweet or a Facebook post.
