About David Guetta

Pierre David Guetta was born in Paris in November 1967 to a French-Moroccan father and a Belgian mother, and started DJing at Broad Club in Paris in 1984 when he was seventeen. He worked through the city's late-1980s house and underground scenes as the imported Chicago and Detroit sound began to take hold in France, and by the early 1990s he was running his own club night Le Palace and managing residencies at Les Bains Douches and Le Boy. The first single Nation Rap with rapper Sidney Duteil arrived in 1990, followed by the early house record Up & Away in 1994 and a long stretch of underground singles before the breakthrough commercial production Just a Little More Love in 2001. The eponymous Just a Little More Love album, released in 2002, was the first under the David Guetta name to chart internationally. Guetta's wife Cathy — to whom he was married from 1992 until their separation in 2014 — was the co-founder of the F*** Me I'm Famous touring brand and the Pacha Ibiza residency that became his summer anchor through the 2000s and 2010s, hosting weekly Monday nights at Pacha for over a decade. The second album Guetta Blaster, released in 2004, deepened the filter-house template, and Pop Life, released in 2007, produced Love Is Gone, Tomorrow Can Wait and Baby When the Light — the records that began to bridge his European club sound toward US pop radio. The full crossover landed with One Love in 2009. When Love Takes Over with Kelly Rowland topped charts across Europe and pushed into the US Top 40. Memories with Kid Cudi, Sexy Bitch with Akon, and Gettin' Over You with Chris Willis and Fergie turned Guetta into one of the central figures in late-2000s American pop production. The album won Best Electronic/Dance Album at the 2010 Grammy Awards and the One Love remix won Best Remixed Recording (Non-Classical). Nothing But the Beat, released in 2011, doubled down on the pop-EDM template and produced Without You with Usher, Where Them Girls At with Flo Rida and Nicki Minaj, Titanium with Sia, Turn Me On with Nicki Minaj, and I Can Only Imagine with Chris Brown and Lil Wayne — the album sold over five million copies and spent multiple weeks at #1 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic chart. Listen, released in 2014, leaned harder into singer-songwriter and acoustic-leaning material with Sam Martin (Dangerous, Lovers on the Sun), John Legend (Listen) and Emeli Sandé (What I Did for Love). 7, released in 2018 as a double album, was a deliberate split-architecture record — disc one organized around radio singles like Like I Do with Martin Garrix and Brooks, Flames with Sia and Don't Leave Me Alone with Anne-Marie, and disc two organized around the underground-leaning house alter-ego Jack Back, which Guetta has used since 2018 to release deeper-cut material under a different name. The Future Rave alias, launched in 2020 with Norwegian producer Morten Breum, has been the most artistically interesting Guetta chapter of the past several years. Future Rave records — including The Future, Detox, Permanence, Element and the Future Rave EP series — pull from late-1990s and early-2000s trance, electroclash and progressive house. I'm Good (Blue) with Bebe Rexha, released in August 2022 and built on the Eiffel 65 Blue (Da Ba Dee) sample, became one of the year's biggest global hits, hit #1 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Songs chart, peaked at #4 on the Hot 100, and won Best Dance Recording at the 2024 Grammy Awards — Guetta's second Grammy. Subsequent collaborations including Baby Don't Hurt Me with Anne-Marie and Coi Leray, and Forever Young with Ava Max, have kept him near the top of the streaming-era charts. He is based primarily between Ibiza, Dubai and Paris, runs the What A Music record label, and at fifty-eight in 2026 is still booking the heaviest summer Ibiza calendar of any A-list DJ on the island.
