==#Selfie==
 Miles Raymer from the Chicago Reader gave the song a negative review, stating referring to the song as "garbage, paint-by-numbers EDM with all the artistic flavor of an audio software preset that makes "Harlem Shake" sound like Selected Ambient Works Volume II. But the song's only there to deliver the meme, and if the song had any personality it might distract from the hashtag-packed spoken-word bit that's the real focus here."

翻译过来，就是作者靠摆弄DAW的一个预设效果完成的#Selfie，没有音乐审美价值，本质是缺乏灵魂的垃圾。笔者完全同意以上观点。这首歌好比爆米花，初听Beats还算Catchy，节奏也令人兴奋，但咀嚼几下后快感就消失，变得索然无味了，甚至开始头疼厌恶。

==撞曲上位==
2016年推出的"Closer"获得了巨大的成功，笔者困惑的同时也对EDM的严重沦陷深感痛心。"Closer"不仅几乎失去了电音的很多特征，旋律还[https://www.teenvogue.com/story/the-chainsmokers-closer-fetty-wap-679 大段照抄了"679"(Fetty Wap)的高潮部分]，缝合怪物确认。相比之下，笔者还是觉得原曲更加悦耳动听，把这段LOOP生搬硬套进男盗女娼的小资口水歌里，只有一个字：呕。

尽管网络上的争议源源不绝，两位带师从来没有对此进行正面回应，也没有给受害方Fetty Wap、Remy Boyz、Brian "Peoples" Garcia、Micah Street道歉。大概是由于索尼音乐强大的公关能力，此事不了了之。
