AceShowbiz - DJ Mustard has received mixed responses to his recent performance. The disc jockey was defended after allegedly shading Drake for cutting off the "Hotline Bling" hitmaker's song at the Flog Gnaw Festival.

On Monday, November 18, the 34-year-old music producer, who produced Drake diss track "Not Like Us", became a hot topic on social media due to his performance. He was accused of trolling Drake, who is also famous as Drizzy, for cutting off the Canadian rapper's song during his DJ set.

Though so, many social media users came to DJ Mustard's defense. Making use of Instagram, one in particular wrote, "this is what DJ's do! Get over it! YALL NEED TO STOP BABYING DRAKE!" Similarly, another chimed in, "That's what a DJ does. You can tell some of y'all don't go outside." A third stated, "Shady or not he did what was necessary lol."

The supportive comments came after DJ Mustard took the stage during his set at the Flog Gnaw Festival. On Sunday, November 17, he entertained festivalgoers at a venue in Los Angeles, California. At one point, he played Drake's "Crew Love", which was released back in July 2012.

DJ Mustard exclaimed, "You ready? Here we go!" Only a few seconds into the song, which peaked at number nine on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, he abruptly cut it off. He then made a smooth transition by playing "Like Dat", which features Drake's nemesis Kendrick Lamar.

During the transition, the disc jockey shouted, "Sike!" Not stopping there, he played "Like Dat" for way longer than he did "Crew Love". It prompted the surprised festivalgoers to scream out loud and cheer.

While some social media users believed that DJ Mustard was shading Drake, others showered him with praise for the smooth transition. One of them gushed, "I love Drake ... but that transition was [a slew of flame emojis]." Another marveled, "that transition was fire can't front." Meanwhile, a third argued, "That 'sike' came from a deep petty place."
