A lot of people got it last time so I wanted to bump up the difficulty level a bit....
Hope it wasn't too much.

Iggy Azalea found dead
Police have disclosed the identity of the body found at last week's Grammy's, none other than Iggy Azalea. Best known for featuring on (and being one of six co-writers on) Charli XCX's hit song "Fancy," Azalea, real name Amethyst Kelly, moved from Australia to the US to pursue a career as a professional rapper. Although her ambitions never quite panned out, Azalea continued pursuing the American Dream until her untimely demise. She will be missed by 16 year-old gay men around the world.
Police have also revealed a disturbing new development: three other bodies have been recently discovered, all bearing evidence that they were murdered by the same person as Azalea. May genetic fail, Little X, and Prometheus rest in peace. They will likely be mourned by many more than Azalea. May angels watch over them.
Finally, the police can confirm that with the help of ATRL legend Marq, they were able to ascertain where Iggy Azalea was murdered before her body was transported to the Grammy's ceremony. And that location is

AN ARTRAVE SHOW
Scores + Quick Commentary
Scores were again out of 13.
I tried to increase the difficulty level this week, but I think I went overboard as only one person got it  #woops. I was gentler with the scoring as a result. The next batch of clues will be somewhere in the middle.
5 points for ArtRave, 4 for BWET party or Werde's basement (quite misleading tbh), 2 for Birthday or Mariah's closet.
1 - 5 for your explanation
1 - 3 for your song choice. - Marq: 5 + 5 + 2; correct location, great explanation, cool song choice. Overall nailed it! 12/13
- ethan: 4 + 3 + 3; wrong location, nice explanation although I think you're depending a bit too much on who you already suspect, you know? Lovely song
 10/13
- Cristhian: 4 + 5 + 2; wrong location, but a thorough explanation! Nice song choice. 11/13
- JakeKills: 2 + 3 + 3; wrong location. You had an almost great explanation for why you chose it though... EXCEPT you said you ruled out ArtRave just because you thought no one goes there
 which hurt your score. SONG CHOICE THOUGH  I considered giving you a 4 for that Truly brings out my inner over-emotional gyal, you know? 8/13
- Ferst: 4 + 4 + 1; wrong location but you did a nice job explaining why you picked it. Unfortunately I didn't really get the song choice for this theme (and I despise Sia, though I promise that didn't really affect your score ). 9/13
- Katie: 4 + 4 + 3; wrong location (misled by that Grindr clue), but your explanation was very good, and you made a crucial good observation about a killer-related clue! Good song choice too, and lemme just PM you about that explanation now cause chhh. 11/13
- Starmie: 2 + 2 + 3; wrong location and your explanation was just so-so, babe. LOVE the song choice though, did you know I'm a stan!? 7/13
- posh: 4 + 2 + 3; wrong location and just so-so explanation, lovely song choice though! 9/13
- Venus Temple: 4 + 4 + 3; wrong location but another very thorough explanation! You also made an important observation about the killer (not saying your exact suspect is correct or not tho, fyi). Song choice, I was gonna give you a 2 tbh just because it's one of my least fave Gaga songs nn, but your explanation was SOOO good
 y'all moved me. 11/13

Sorry to say goodbye to you guys, posh and ethan  It was sad to eliminate anyone this week, as a whole the entries were a lot better despite my misleading clues.
Other crap
- I should hopefully have the next batch of clues sent out tomorrow
- Everyone please double check your scores/totals. I'm very good at math, but not at 1am. Ready to be embarrassed if I ended up making a mistake with the elimination
- Venus Temple, would you rather me not include your explanation if I post the song choices again tomorrow?
- I edited Katie's table with the new results all by myself. Two years spent working on a computer science degree and I can just barely splice together a BBcode table. Slay.

Good night.

Um. Absolutely none of those clues gave any indication that it was the ArtRave. Was I supposed to get that just because Gaga's too drunk to know what's going on?
Even the Birthday video set had stronger evidence.

God dammit, I even knew that Grindr **** was too obvious. Let me pray to the Holy Spearit that I can at least guess the killer correctly. I'm 0/2 and it's just sad. 
Sorry about my song explanation. I wasn't expecting all that to happen when I began typing
