    He should have had this brainwave in 2012 when this EDM lark was so popular.

    I'm aware maniac is a completely different song. I'm asking did he rob dj Wickeds version of it.

    I remember wicked had one that sounded fairly similar before mark McCabe.

    yes, he simply did a rap over a track called status break the silence, which sampled maniac.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    I noticed he has gone back to club dj'ing and performing Maniac live... He distanced himself from it pretty much straight after it's release.

    Beggars can't be choosers. When 2fm let him go he wasn't exactly going to be head hunted by any other station.

    MmcC's Maniac is a million times better than Wickeds version which sounds like a Nintendo computer game
