Global Spin Awards 2015: Swizz Beatz Hosts, Calvin Harris, DJ Khaled Lead Nominations

The best DJs across all genres are once again set to swarm New York City this fall for the fourth annual Global Spin Awards. On Monday (Sept. 28), Power Moves Inc. announced that Swizz Beatz will host the ceremony on Nov. 17 with nominees that include DJ Khaled, Calvin Harris, DJ Mustard, Skrillex, Diplo and more.

Swizz Beatz will follow in the footsteps of LaLa Anthony, whom hosted the 2014 Global Spin Awards, as emcee of this year's event at New York's Best Buy Theatre.

"I am thrilled to host this year's fourth annual Global Spin Awards," said Swizz Beatz. "This award show gives talented DJs the overdue recognition they deserve. Every individual that has been nominated contributes to the culture and more importantly, the music. I am honored to serve as the host of the fourth annual award show and be a part of this universal team of phenomenal DJs."

The GSA not only is an award ceremony, the event also acts as a convention of sorts, where the public can interact with chart-topping DJs at events throughout the weekend. The award ceremony will air on REVOLT TV.
