Zero EDM Artists Make Billboard’s Top 40 Money Makers: The Rich List

Billboard puts out a list every year listing the top 40 artists that make the most money in music. What is strange is that despite festivals, tours, residencies, tons of merchandising, not a single EDM artist made the list. We even have last year’s top earning DJ’s which should compare to some of these artists. We even showed you Avicii’s 15 million dollar home. Something doesn’t make sense with this list. Check it out if you’re curious.
