#107
DAVID GUETTA
David Guetta's mix of house and electronica has propelled the Parisian into one of the highest profile DJs on the planet. Born in 1967, he steadily built up his reputation at the decks. As a recording artist, Guetta's debut disc was a 2001 single featuring Chris Willis on vocals entitled "Just A Little More Love", which dented charts in France and the UK. 
In 2003, Guetta's remix of David Bowie's "Heroes", re-titled "Just For One Day" was lifted off his 'Fuck Me I'm Famous' album. The DJ enjoyed his biggest hit to date in 2006 with "Love Don't Let Me Go (Walking Away)", a #3 single in Britain. This was followed by his 3rd studio album 'Pop Life' in 2007. 
'One Love', issued 2 years later, widened his fan base. It reached #2 in the UK and topped the European album chart. The disc contained the hit single "When Love Takes Over". Featuring Kelly Rowland on guest vocals, the dance track topped charts in Britain, Europe and Israel. Follow-up single "Sexy Bitch", with Akon on vocals, made #1 in the UK, Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. It was also Guetta's 1st Top 10 hit in the USA. Also that year, Guetta co-produced the Black Eyed Peas' worldwide #1 smash hit "I Gotta Feeling".
2011 saw the issue of 'Nothing But the Beat'. This album featured the hits "Sweat" (with Snoop Dogg), "Where Them Girls At" (with Flo Rida and Nicki Minaj), "Without You" (Usher) and "Titanium" (Sia).
'Listen' was unleashed 3 years later. Sam Martin sang lead on "Lovers On The Sun", another British chart topper. Other singles lifted off the album included "Dangerous" and "What I Did For Love" (with Martin again and Emeli Sandé respectively). 
Over the years, Guetta's musical output has seen him work with a diverse range of performers, including John Legend, The Script, Rihanna, Fetty Wap, Robin Schulz, Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Chris Brown. In 2017, he scored a global smash with Justin Bieber entitled "2U".
