Calvin Harris has a lot of summer bops under his belt. But a Twitter user wondered if that success translates into cold, hard cash.
"I always wonder how DJs like Khaled and Calvin Harris make bread. Like all of their songs are other artists. Just production revenue?" the Twitter user said on Friday (August 26).
The Scottish DJ had an epic response to this tantalizing question. "Because I write, produce, mix, play every instrument and sometimes vocal," Harris begins. "We found love, Summer, Feel so close for example 100% publishing because I did everything.
"Only reason I got Frank Ocean feature was he told me we found love was one of his favorite songs. I wrote that song."
