The Niche VMA Awards: Why Modern Chart-Toppers Don’t Always Work for Event DJs
from DJNTV – Disc Jockey News TV
The MTV Music Awards (VMAs) have become a “very niche thing,” according to the hosts of Hanging Out on Monday Nights. This episode explores the widening gap between the music recognized at major award shows and the tracks that actually resonate with the average wedding or event audience. We use the VMAs as a starting point to analyze the state of new music, debating if today's chart hits lack the broad appeal and danceability of past eras. Join the conversation as we discuss the challenges professional DJs face in keeping their music catalog relevant while prioritizing the best choice and energy for their diverse crowds.
