October 14, 20213 yr How is this compiled again? Really surprised someone like John Summit and even CamelPhat are missing
October 14, 20213 yr Author public vote. so in theory these are the top 100 most popular DJs but its also heavily influenced by how much DJs give a shit to spend on their advertising campaign. I suspect those two were amongst the many that didn’t give a shit.
October 14, 20213 yr Future Rave wins for two straight years... ^_^ Who is Martin Garrix? I only know Martin Garixx :lol: I watched Gordo/Carnage's Instagram live about how disappointed he was about DJ Mag. Now, he gets the highest re-entry... His sets were great tho. Not really a surprise to see a lot of Asian DJs here (Rave Republic, GIFTBACK, Carta, Luminn, etc.). I guess them entering this top was something special. Good to see KAAZE and Christina there too. Honestly, this popularity contest has gone too far. Since last year, I've been voting for random celebrities/sportsmen because I'm only interested in that UNICEF aid.

October 14, 20213 yr I'd like to see a list that influenced so highly by campaigns etc. There's no way that Guetta is the best DJ for 2021.
October 15, 20213 yr The ranking doesn't make a lot of sense to me sadly... How on earth are Martin Garrix and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike in top 5 when I don't recall any massive singles from them this year... If any, both Alok and R3HAB deserves top 5 this year as they have released quite a handful of great songs this year. I understand why David Guetta is no. 1 with several big hits though he is not my no. 1 DJ this year. Edited October 15, 20213 yr by uhsting
October 15, 20213 yr Author Garrix has a rather big fan base and campaign and DVLM always employ some shady tactics (which is how they made number one in the past) to get votes.
