One of my friends has asked me to post this for them about their abusive relationship with DJ/Producer Polonis. The music industry appears to have a surplus of abusive men - at this point it’s important for us to protect women & hold abusive men accountable. We need to do better. pic.twitter.com/fNqjA0eoko

Moving swiftly, labels who have worked with Polonis have deleted the producer's catalogue from their accounts.



Due to events that have come to light, CT and KS will be removing all releases and related content from Polonis from our catalogue. We do not tolerate abusers in any way shape or form and we stand in solidarity with the victims.

Due to the abuse and manipulation that has come to light regarding Polonis, I will be taking down his music from the bluedollarbillz bandcamp
