Just as any artist would be, DJ and producer David Guetta is understandably quite upset over the recent leak of his new song, according to Rolling Stone.
Guetta has gone above and beyond to catch the sleazy hacker who leaked his new single "Where Them Girls At?" which features Nicki Minaj and Flo Rida, by hiring a Pentagon investigator. The investigator has not been able to track down the hacker yet.
While it's really bad ass that someone who typically works with the Pentagon is involved in bringing a music hacker to justice, it's a little overboard. The Beastie Boys didn't hire a damn detective when the clean version of their new album leaked a week or two before its formal release, and nobody else hires a detective, either. This forces early releases that simply need to be dealt with accordingly. While it's still not an easy situation to deal with, artists' new music gets leaked pretty regularly now, and that's just part of being an artist nowadays. David Guetta isn't any more special than any other artist, so bringing Pentagon investigators into the mix is at least somewhat unnecessary and pretty ridiculous.
