Calvin Harris is the world's highest paid DJ... again
News
: 01 Aug 2018 :
It really is crazy when you see how much top DJs and producers make in a year, and it's enough to make your eyes water when you get up to the top 10. And guess who is #1 again - yes, with $48m earnings in 2018 it's Calvin Harris.
So what makes him the highest paid DJ in the world once more? Well believe it or not he's had one or more tracks in the top 30 constantly for the last eight years, and a few of them, such as his collab with Rihanna, have been incredibly successful for him.
Other DJs on the list include the inevitable Chainsmokers in second place, with Marshmello rising 3 places from 8th in 2017 to 5th this year. Steve Aoki his gone up a place to 4th, but perhaps the most surprising entry into the top 10 is Kaskade, having not featured in the list since 2014.
Here's the top 15:
Calvin Harris – $48 million
The Chainsmokers – $45.5 million
Tiesto – $33 million
Steve Aoki – $28 million
Marshmello – $23 million
Zedd – $22 million
Diplo – $20 million
David Guetta – $15 million
Kaskade – $13.5 million
Martin Garrix – $13 million
Axwell & Ingrosso – $12 million
Kygo – $11.5 million
DJ Snake – $11 million
