David Guetta is a French DJ and producer. He has been in the music industry for many years, but broke through into the UK charts in with his hit with Kelly Rowland, 'When Love Takes Over'.
David Guetta started his career at a nightclub in Paris called Broad Club. In he started to host his own club nights and then in he released a hip-hop collaboration called 'Nation Rap'. Over the following years, David released a number of songs, but it wasn't until 'Just a Little More Love' was released in , which reached Number 19 in the UK, that he started to have success in the UK. David Guetta has released seven studio albums in total. His most recent album was released in and called '7'.
In an interview with us David didn't dismiss the idea of an album of collabs with Sia, saying: "That would be amazing!
That is actually a really good idea, because we've made so many records together, it would make a lot of sense. She makes it really easy you know. David Guetta has done a number of huge collaborations over the years, a whole host of which were with none other than the 'Queen of Rap', Nicki Minaj. This was followed by 'Turn Me On' in the same year. Last year, David released a collab with Sia called 'Let's Love'.
It's that mark that just takes us over the edge. And that strutting bass? More of this bass, please. Is this a sonic snapshot of , or what? Both of those features were radio royalty circa , and they totally dominated in the arena of EDM-pop. This was the moment everyone decided tight neon pants and tanks with text were the only thing they wanted to wear.
This is, like, the moment EDM became a hot commodity, and there's still been no gettin' over it. Akon - "Sexy Bitch". We all know half of what makes this song so incredible is Akon's insane lyrical content. Akon actually approached Guetta about working together following the success of his Kelly Rowland collab. Guetta suggested they start immediately, so they booked a hotel in London and wrote this song in one night.
It just goes to show, you should never put off for tomorrow what can be done tonight. Chris Willis - "Love Is Gone". This is a Guetta classic, a cut form 's Pop Life , a huge step for Guetta in the album department. It's full of filtered synth and electro vibe goodness, which was very en vogue in The radio edit, heard in the video below, is actually a remix of the original, included at the end of the album as a bonus cut, but this is the version that lives on in collective memory.
Chris Willis is the perfect soulful house singer, belting out all the pain of a broken relationship, somehow turning it into a self-affirming message of strength and resilience. It's very '90s dance-all-night. Usher - "Without You".
Nothing But the Beat might be Guetta's best album. It had so many unforgettable classics, this jam featuring Usher being one of the best. Again, Usher provides the perfect sing-along hook over Guetta's higher-than-higher synth melodies. There's a hint of Discovery- era Daft Punk in those electric keys matched with the pounding four-on-the-floor. It's upbeat, it's got star power, it's soulful, it's pop-driven. It's not a song anyone can deny.
Kid Cudi - "Memories". Another jam from Guetta's first international crossover success One Love. In , if you put Kid Cudi on a dance song, you were almost guaranteed a club hit. The video is super goofy and wonderful. The barber shop scene is definitely my fave. Those wacky barbers. This tune is hipster-approved, which is a big thing for Guetta.
Sia - "Titanium". Somehow, this David Guetta song only peaked at No. I distinctly remember everyone I knew belting out its chorus, regardless of how croaky their throaty cries came out. This week he releases his seventh studio album - aptly titled 7 - his first full length in four years. It features a monster 27 tracks, comprising of two sides, with one dedicated to David's new house-ier alter-ego Jack Back.
But first, some highlights Boosted by a feature spot on a car advert and Guetta's own increased profile, the song peaked at Number 3 and launched him to worldwide fame.
It took until June David Guetta and Justin Bieber to unite, and result is David's second-biggest streaming hit with Adding in 80, downloads, 2U ranks as his ninth biggest single.
Serving as the lead single from his Nothing But The Beat album, pumping party anthem Where Them Girls At peaked at Number 3 and places fifth on his all-time chart, with , downloads and When Love Takes Over was as much a turning point for Guetta's career as it was for its collaborator.
