Moby definitely not playing Trump's inauguration, still laughing at the thought
Moby is "still laughing" at being asked to consider to play at one of Trump's bloated, sweaty inauguration balls.
The incredibly outspoken DJ/producer was "just asked by a booking agent if [he] would consider DJing at one of the inaugural balls for Trump."

Unsurprisingly, he doesn't seem keen. He has made a proper playlist (for Billboard) for the hypothetical scenario, however, which includes tracks by Public Enemy, Rdiohead, Sex Pistols, Killing Joke, Kendrick Lamar, Gil-Scott Heron, Pete Seeger, and Billie Holiday,
In our recent interview (before the US election), Moby told us: "Donald Trump is the worst of the worst of the worst – he's an entitled, ignorant sociopath who maligns women, minorities, veterans, [and] disabled people... this feel like bizarre, mescaline-inspired, weird, Hunter S. Thompson-esque fiction. I just can't believe that this it's real, but then he just keeps getting worse... he keeps digging himself further into this trench of manure. It's mind boggling."
Moby's not the only one who's declined to play Trump's party, with Charlotte Church calling the President-elect a "tyrant" in her poop emoji-filled rejection. X Factor runner up Rebecca Ferguson might play - but only on one condition.
