for real????

OK so I’ve been speculating and dreaming for a while about Louis signing to  Steve Aoki’s record label Dim Mak, which originated as a punk label and now does mostly EDM. Its parent company is Warner. We all know how much Steve believes in and supports Louis, so it’d be amazing to see Louis working with them.

on a whim I went to twitter and posted this:

aaand then this happened:

(archived page showing the like: https://web.archive.org/web/20201222153400/https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fgenuine_HL%2Fstatus%2F1341400399526436867%3Fs%3D20)

I took a look at their recent likes and they do sometimes like compliments from fans, but Steve at least is aware of the power likes have among Louies… 

so… mark me down as suspicious… and scared… and excited….

some other details: Louis is the only member of 1D followed by Dim Mak on instagram (and Just Hold On was released by Ultra, not Dim Mak)

and Steve has recently gotten into unboxing collectible cards (it’s a thing, don’t ask me) and it could (kind of) explain Louis’ relatively recent follow of a a guy who runs a big collectible card company (Panini America. incredible name.) because Steve follows him, too.

Obviously they may have just liked my tweet because I mean, who wouldn’t want Louis Tomlinson?  and it’s someone’s job to keep the account engaged with fans on twitter.  

But I’m a bit mind blown.
