I'd rather be Diplo, not making as much money yet still producing forward sounding music, than making generic radio fodder and being heralded as some EDM God for it
Industry Fact: One of these guys can't actually produce music. He hires ghost producers for everything he releases. He doesn't even know how to use any of the musical equipment.
It's probably Guetta.

I'm really happy about Kaskade being high up!
Afrojack, Deadmau5, and Diplo deserve much more.
Any of you ever think that some of these people aren't high up on the list because they don't care about playing tons of shows and aren't money hungry?
To be honest, I really don't know which one. But it's very well known in the industry. Bebe Rexha's manager was part of an article released last week that acknowledged it. And he knows because he's been in the studio with the guy.
they will prob say Zedd or martin because they r so young...ageism tbh
