Not only does the EDM turned Pop mega producer have brand new music dropping Friday, but he also just won a thick stack of money!

'Mello and celebrity gamer/pro streamer Ninja competed in the duo event at the recent Fortnite competition called "Pro-AM 2018," which drew hundreds of gamers and fans.

That's the prime look of sweet, sugary, satisfaction.

What an amazing time yesterday! Still can’t believe that we won and get to donate a million dollars to the charity of our choice @ninja

Also, if you're like us and are thinking, "WOW! Does this DJ, who's already worth $27 million, really need ANOTHER $1 million?" You'll be happy to know the $1 million in winnings will actually go towards charity. Ninja announced in a tweet that his share of the $1 million prize will be going towards the Alzheimer's association.

I love this man @marshmellomusic
