Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
After eluding the annals of popular dance music for practically forever, France finally got with the program in the late ’90s thanks to a quirky little duo named Daft Punk. It didn’t take long after that for France to grow its own crop of DJ superstars, whose prime example is David Guetta. A veteran DJ of the early-’90s Parisian hip-hop and house scenes, Guetta got his big break in 2002 with his debut studio album, Just a Little More Love, and the title track that catapulted him to international fame.
Fast-forward to the end of the decade, and Guetta boasts production credits such as the Black Eyed Peas’ ubiquitous hit “I Gotta Feeling” and sits at the top of DJ Magazine‘s “Best DJ” list. His fourth studio album, One Love, was released this past August and has garnered the DJ/producer further global renown. The second single from the album, “Sexy Bitch,” has topped international dance and pop music charts, with regular radio airplay too, thanks in part to a guest vocal from Akon. Join Guetta for a night of sexed-up house music when he swings by Mansion this Saturday.
