Moby: 'I Don't Understand Why People Hate Me'

April 16, 2008
Moby: 'I Don't Understand Why People Hate Me'Speaking exclusively to Gigwise, dance veteran Moby has expressed his bafflement at why so many people hate him.

The 42-year-old New Yorker said that the hatred is disconcerting because these are largely people he has never met. He also refuted claims that he is self-righteous through his outspoken views on politics, world climate and other such pressing issues.

Somewhat dejected, he said: “Some people seem to like me and some people seem to hate my guts, which is strange. I mean, it’s a very strange phenomenon being hated by people you’ve never met.

“Every now and then someone will forward me a review or something, and it will be by some journalist that just seems to hate me and everything I do, and it’s disconcerting because I’ve never met this person. I don’t know what’s wrong with me that I can inspire such loathing in people I’ve never met.”

Moby continued that most of the venom comes from sections of the British public rather than his native America.

“It seems a particular problem in the UK, because a lot of people in the UK seem to think I’m some kind of self-righteous moralist, and actually nothing could be further from the truth.

“In terms of being self-righteous about veganism or whatever, I challenge anyone to find anything I’ve said in the last ten years that’s self-righteous or moralising. I mean I am honest, I am outspoken about politics, but if you go to any bar you can find a drunkard that’s self righteous about politics.”

He finished: “I have no problem if people hate me, but it seems a little strange when people hate me for the wrong reasons.”

Moby’s new album ‘Last Night’ is available to download right now. The physical version hits the shelves on May 12.
