Afrojack & Steve Aoki’s ‘No Beef’ Has Turned 13 Years Old

The 2010s were a time when EDM went mainstream. Las Vegas dayclubs were buzzing in the summertime, featuring several EDM DJ producers. Afrojack and Steve Aoki were a significant part of this emerging scene. Afrojack had a summer residency at Encore Beach Club, while Steve Aoki was a regular at Wet Republic.

Today, ‘No Beef’ turns 13 years old. Where does time go?! Afrojack released the track as a single, and Steve Aoki later included it as a bonus track on his Wonderland album in 2012. This single was the first of now five collaborations between Afrojack and Steve Aoki, solidifying their “bromance.”

The music video for ‘No Beef’ also debuted their moniker “Afroki”, combining “Afro” from Afrojack and “ki” from Aoki. The bromance between these two was further cemented with both producers getting matching ‘No Beef’ necklace tattoos confirmed in the video. Aoki secretly recorded parts of the video with his cell phone at a Las Vegas gift shop, adding to the track’s summertime vibes. The bromance between these two is evident in the video, showcasing how great EDM can be when two legends come together. Here’s to hoping for more future collabs with Afroki down the road.
