In short. This is the ranking of the most streamed bouyon beatmakers from Guadeloupe on Spotify, by monthly listeners, rebuilt every month. At the latest count, DJ Skycee leads, ahead of 1T1 and YSN. These are the people who build the genre's instrumentals.
In bouyon, the beat is half the record. This page ranks the people who build it, not the ones who sing over it. A beatmaker is not a producer: the first writes the music, the second carries and funds the project. Click a name to open their profile.

The beatmaker's paradox
A beatmaker is poorly measured by monthly listeners, and this ranking shows it.
The ones at the top also release tracks under their own name, so Spotify gives them an audience. Those who only sign instrumentals for others sometimes have no page at all, or an empty one: their work lives in the credits, not in a catalog of their own.
The number that really counts for a beatmaker is how many artists they work with. On that ground the order would not be the same: a beatmaker with few listeners under their own name can have built the beats for a large part of the scene. Real influence does not sit in the same column as popularity.
Two names from the scene are missing for lack of a usable page: Dinho and DJ Weez.
How to read this ranking
The number is the monthly listener count shown on each beatmaker's Spotify page: how many different people played their releases over the last 28 days. It is not how many tracks they produced.
1T1 and Lewismelo appear here as well as in the artist ranking: they build their own beats and carry their own voice, both jobs in one.
Behind every single, a beat
Next time a track runs in the party, look at who produced it: it is often the same name across ten different releases. TIITII NBA works with several of them: the current release puts you in the sound of the moment.
FAQ : common questions
What is the difference between a beatmaker and a producer in bouyon? The beatmaker builds the instrumental, the music itself. The producer carries the project: funds it, directs it and decides when it drops. Two different jobs that one word often covers.
Who is the most streamed bouyon beatmaker in Guadeloupe? At the latest count, DJ Skycee leads by Spotify monthly listeners, ahead of 1T1 and YSN. But monthly listeners measure this job poorly: many beatmakers have no catalog under their own name.
Why are some well-known beatmakers missing? Because a beatmaker who releases nothing under their own name has no Spotify artist page. Their work only appears in the credits of other people's tracks.
