2. Robert ‘Fergie’ Ferguson is a Northern Irish DJ and techno producer from Larne, UK. He made a big comeback in 2021 following the rising popularity of the Techno Trance genre wich got him signed on Dutch record label Armada Music, since then he scored big hits played by many DJs worldwide such as ‘Alpha Centauri’, ‘Time’ and ‘Muzik’, all of them released on Armin van Buuren's very own record label and Armada Music's sublabel Armind.
A DJ since he was barely a teenager who became one of the first true superstar DJs, a BBC Radio 1 presenter for over four years, a Mixmag columnist, an award winning producer and remixer, a record label owner, an electronic dance-music pioneer – is there anything Fergie dj hasn’t ticked off the list? (Well there was that offer of a reality TV show which he turned down but that’s another story.)
Fergie dj has had many sounds, identities and even a brief name change over the course of a career that began over twenty years ago back home in Northern Ireland but has undoubtedly remained one of dance-music’s most controversial, most successful and most loved characters. 2012 marked the beginning of a new chapter of his incredible story when he left Europe and headed for a new home, the hedonistic party capital of the world: Las Vegas. With his most audacious move yet came a bold new sound and another chameleon-like reinvention to go with it. The three illustrious DJ residencies he now holds in America is unprecedented: at the iconic Wet Republic pool party, the HQ Nightclub in Atlantic City and from this Spring at the newly-opened Hakkasan Las Vegas Nightclub. Hakkasan Las Vegas is an ambitious concept that Fergie dj will be a central part of and will see him tailor his DJ performances to suit the unique capabilities of a venue which is set to become one of the top nightlife experiences in the world.

Fergie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh uh
Ah-huh
Give it to me now
Well, why do I keep pulling out the roots in my hair?
What do keep at the edge of my skin?
It feels so good to have a taste of what I'm crawling in.
I got to go, I got to leave
The waves are changed today I'm pulling me
Even though I go with hip-hop, today, its taking to your next game*
[Chorus:]
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Cuz I'll be leaving you today now
Shake up, shake up, don't breakup breakup
Take your lips off mine
Who could see these words are swinging?
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up,
What did you keep coming out two sides of your mouth?
You didn't think I had hit my people on how your selling out
What did you think making your decision I'm dumb
Manipulative, Calculative, and a pet, you thought
I didn't know I couldn't see,
The spade and plain plan for using me
Like the picture you counterfeit its time to say good-night,
Its not a reason to say Good-bye, good-bye, buhbye
[Chorus]
The coffee is brewing now...
As for me pouring out
Eyes open now I see,
All that you take from me!
[Chorus]
