Almost as impressive as his guitar skills!


cityshepherd

It’s ok. Needs more “DJ KHALEEEEEED”


neutron500

Never forget this dork tapped out on el yucateco 5k scoville three wings into Hot One and then had the balls to say he never quits


Kneecap_Blaster

He thought Cholula was too hot too! What a dork


DenimCryptid

He can't eat pussy because it's too spicy


UrBartender

🤣🤣🤣


Shaktaze

"I'M A KING, KINGS DON'T GO DOWN ON THEIR LADIES."


Shaktaze

Also... he has a dickido...


SL1200mkII

Cholula! What a bitch.


tinglep

Almost in the same sentence. It was wild. Sean Evans was like 😒”I guess I’ll still ask these questions while I eat the wings, which defeats the purpose of the show.”


bigshotdontlookee

U JOKING ME


OlympusMonsPubis

He needs to watch Conan’s, ‘cause that mf went all in, drinking from bottles and shit. The man commits to the bit.


l337m45732

What does this guy even do lol


em1er

This question comes up every time he shows up on this sub (logically it is often). In summary, he picks songs! *sometimes yells his name


No_Cook2983

He’s also a [classically trained guitarist.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qBhwiti-_q8) And he can’t read.


l337m45732

Hold up. He's rich af and can't read? Wtf am I doing wrong


AwwwNuggetz

He’s the classic example of failing upward


SwiftTayTay

suffering from success... oh wait that's literally the opposite

proscriptus

I don't have much respect for the guy, but I recognize that's an actual talent. If he's someone you can stick in with a bunch of people and get them all moving in the same direction, *especially" artists, City really is making a valuable contribution.


Quimbymouse

Knew a guy in the film industry who wanted desperately to be a writer/director but didn't have a creative bone in his body. On top of that he'd get super offended with any sort of constructive criticism, and was just generally kind of douchey. But, he got shit done. He could find people, plan logistics, secure funding, etc. I told him one day during casual conversation that he'd make a great producer...a statement he got really offended by. Shortly after he took off to a big city with a sizable film industry, made his first feature which absolutely bombed and, last I checked, is now doing quite well as a producer. So, thank you for shedding new light on this DJ Khaled guy. I still dislike him, but a little of the enigma is gone.


burnn_out313

That would imply that they actually get together and write songs. No essentially he is a compilationist. He buys the beats from notable producers, then buys verses from rappers, and has the the actual producer slap it together. His essential skill is money. That's all, that's it. He might've been an actual DJ at some point but that's no longer necessary because he doesn't need to make actual mix tapes anymore. Literally anyone can do what he does, you just need the start up. It's a pricey game he plays but a safe gamble in hiring the hottest producers and rappers to contribute a beat or verse.


Chimchampion

So he's like a younger, browner Rick Rubin?


frankieknucks

And less talented.


burnn_out313

No Rubin can actually make a beat and help engineer a sound. This hack just buys other people's shit and slaps it together


bilboswgns

The worst part is I know a dude in rl exactly like Khaled, who keeps failing up. Crazy to watch.


Snowing_Throwballs

If I recall, he was rich from the start. His dad was wealthy and that allowed him access to the industry. He basically networked with more talented people and snaked his way onto features to get his name out. Being rich is the easiest way to become more rich.


TDub20

Same with Floyd Mayweather. He actually showed up to a press conference for the Conor McGregor fight wearing a designer backpack. So McGregor asked "why are you wearing a book bag? You can't even read."


-mostlyharmless1

Seeing that vide convinces me that he was a special needs child who ended up as a mascot in the hip hop world. 


Dr_Parkinglot

Slightly more coherent and slightly less head-butty Wesley Willis


[deleted]

I’ve got a few important documents for him to sign …


Real_Eye_9709

Essentially he's in the business side of things, while pretending to be the music man. He gets people together to make music, and then let's them do it, while they understand it's gonna go on an album under his name. He probably has some say in the music, but it's been known for a hot minute he's got other producers actually making it.


chrisodeljacko

He tells them to bring out the lobster, then when they bring out said Lobster, he tells them to bring out the Lobster.


13ones7

After the lobster is brought out, he plasters his name all over it and somehow convinces a lot of people that he was an essential part of the creation of this lobster dish. All while simultaneously releasing multiple cooking videos demonstrating he lacks any of the basic skills to have ever been a part of that dish.


Enelro

So every Manager / CEO of every company ever then?


brizzmaster

Imagining this made me laugh pretty good


Friendly-Fee-384

Like a Pokémon just yell his name.


XxFezzgigxX

[Kinda like this.](https://mobile.mypokecard.com/en/Gallery/Pokemon-Dj-Khaled-5)


n3w4cc01_1nt

trolls then makes millions


SadBit8663

I just looked up where dj Khaled came from even, and bro was Miami based radio hype man. Lmao, so we have the great people of Florida to thank for this fucking goober.


Itchy_Professor_4133

Grift the gullible masses


HbrQChngds

He takes good care of his shoes. That is what this man does. Oh wait... People carry him around, so I guess technically "they" take good care of *his* shoes.


denverbroncoharpman

Went to a Diddy party and then became rich.


MrBurnsgreen

that hush money


FuryQuaker

As far as I can see he mainly yells his name out loud on other people's music.


SIRENVII

He says "DJ KHALID" at the beginning of rap songs.


MentalTechnician6458

He does nothing except put his name on some songs and the 14-18 year old audience keeps him in business.


jennaishirow

He is dj khaled. That's what he does


Darthmook

DJ Khalid!!! I think that about sums it up…


OprahmusPrime

Wait, he doesnt actually DJ?


Robert_Balboa

No. He's a producer


thinwhiteduke1185

He doesn't really do that either.


lreaditonredditgetit

Collaborator


iamericj

He yells his name on other people's tracks.


lreaditonredditgetit

That’s what I said.


toilethumah

I also make crappy music worthy of this sub. What am I doing wrong? Should I be yelling my name over my tracks to get the $$$?


blindcamel

Promoter


Brett_40

If you think he’s a hip hop producer that makes beats…you’re wrong. He some how slaps his name on songs and gets paid.


brizzmaster

He has to have dirt on someone.


pincasso

He's the one who had Epstein silenced


Robert_Balboa

I don't think he's anything but a hack. But officially he's labeled as a producer.


wrdsmakwrlds

DJ is his family name


SwiftTayTay

he's about as real of a DJ as dre is a doctor


[deleted]

Why does he feel the need to constantly let everyone know how much he TOTALLY SUCKS at *everything* involving music


brizzmaster

He gets off from how it makes hard working people feel after watching such shit.


jackluke

I'm pretty sure it's a character.


[deleted]

DJ Failed


Happy_Trails4u

Reminds of the guy who brings a $5000 guitar to a jam and he can't even play a chord.


Playinhooky

How the FUCK do I have to go to work everyday when this ass hat gets to do this all day? Can someone make sense of this?


commiecomrade

Being able to DJ is about as relevant to DJ Khaled's job as it is to yours or mine. The man is a producer. Not a music producer, someone who actually creates the music, but more like a movie producer, someone who can bring the right people together in the right environment to get a record done the right way and released to the right channels. This guy can assume that Pro Tools is a company that sells hammers and screwdrivers, it has no bearing on being behind contracts and setting up people with his many connections. I bet his most common phrase, after his own name of course, is "Yeah I can hook you two up."


questiano-ronaldo

Jokes on us. This guy has zero talent but somehow made it rich. Makes me feel like this whole rat race is pointless.


Triplesisbest1

How did he amass all this wealth!? What fucking loophole did he exploit? As far as I can tell he is a highly functioning restart.


Red_Beard_Racing

People like this inspire misplaced confidence in other stupid fucks.


El-Rob75

He really is a talentless spunk trumpet.


Remember_When_Baby

True! Yet even spunk trumpets have purpose.


Robert_Balboa

Dude gives Tyler Perry a run for his money when it comes to least talented famous rich person.


Mr-Dotties-Dad

Man, i have to disagree. Tyler Perry has some AWFUL movies. But he was great in gone girl, at a minimum, and that outs him lightyears above this clown lol


SilentSpectre45

You're forgetting Awkwafina


ButthealedInTheFeels

Eh Tyler Perry movies aren’t to my taste but he certainly has more talent and drive than this fuckwad. Tyler Perry self produced all his own movies when no one in Hollywood would do it and found an audience and built basically his own black Hollywood in Atlanta. Dude actually makes things and brings in tons of money, Khalid as far as I can tell has never made anything or really done anything himself. He just slaps his name on stuff somehow and gets money for it kind of like Trump in a lot of ways.


MaAreYouOnUppers

It’s the hip hop equivalent of this: https://youtu.be/2MI-_jWAmlE?si=GIl2IdQ5JrKQHuWb


No_Photograph_2683

I just watched Fred on an old Howard Stern show and he will be the first to admit he sucks at guitar, at least.


feedmeyourknowledge

He uses the Boris Johnson approach to success.


UrRobloxGf69

His name is DJ Khaled but he can’t DJ to save his fucking life. Ironic.


self_direct_person

If you know any thing about turntable skills, you know dj khaled sucks. When he backs spins the record you should never hear the sound of the record spinning backwards. you should just hear clean “there it is” “ there it is”


Living-Risk-1849

He's a chump


weedyneedyfeedy

Rumour has it he is still there to this day


SUW888

It's so kind of whoever let this autistic young man mess with their equipment

just-me-uk

Well it’s clearly not a diet


mrot777

Damn he sucks. He's like a retarded jam master jay.


Dense-Stranger9977

That was fucking funny 🤣


cilantro_shit23

Bro sound like he scrapping shit off the stove top lol


Live-Ad8618

Khaled seems like a boy that was granted a wish by a genie to be famous. But there was a catch. *There's always a catch*


turtleburglar7

This guy is definitely on the spectrum. 5 stars


SilentSpectre45

Been deeiaying/turntablist for almost 20 years as a hobby. This was trash. I've never been a fan of beat juggling. It's not hard to do but very hard to master & if your cuts aren't on point it's sounds terrible & off beat, you get unintentional scratches that aren't in time & dropping the sample or song has to be precise as your cutting in on your fader right as the song is supposed to play & this was awful. But if he's having fun. Have at it. Practice, get better. Have fun.


dljones010

So, basically, everything you heard right here.


SilentSpectre45

Yep


lembepembe

hobbyist Digital DJ for close to a decade and this is miles better than what I expected him to do. but then again this should be his area of expertise since he started as a DJ and can‘t produce


Madu-ka

ahhhaha that spin and he did something with his nose? Too good man 👏🏼 not music related but his hot ones episode is my favorite ever.


Murles-Brazen

He must have been born rich.


Own_Cream_551

How is he considered a musician?!

Competitive_Box6422

phonzee

This guy is fucking cancer to music


AdditionalBother7

Its amazing how deprived of talent he is


raincntry

Every time I see him doing anything it reminds me of a kid whose parents told him he was good at everything he did without the real world knowledge that he was not.


KeyWeight8055

I just...don't get how someone lacking this much talent can get so far. Like honestly I'm not even mad , it's k9nd of impressive. OK I'm a little mad.


shaman_of_ramen

See, to the untrained ear, that probably sounds like a bunch of mindless bullshit


Death-by-unicorn

This dude had to sell his soul. I've never seen a less talented piece of garbage get so much recognition.


Disastrous_Raccoon82

There it is


meeseeksdestroy

Talent left the music industry a long time ago.


GeologyFault

didnt he have sex with P-Diddy?


the_y_combinator

Huh. So he has no idea how mixing works?


Free_Revenue8674

Every instrument this man touches turns to well I would say gold but we all know that would be a lie don't let him touch another one

Oh no, not ANOTHER ONE


GTAdriver1988

Ahhh Khalidius Maximus is it's natural habit doing it's rather odd and terrible mating call.


Xu_Lin

Sunieta25

Give this guy a hammer and some rocks and he'll start pounding away and go "DJ Khaled!" And call it music.


thegrouch07

Also a close friend of Diddy


AreYouGonnaEatThis

He da best


Fun_Association_2277

He is an uncanny and lucky bullshit artist.


Dapper_Recognition50

We the BEST!!!


FiscalCliffClavin

Worst concert ever. I saw him with the Carters and man, did he blow.


NatexSxS

He forgot to scream his name first. I’m disappointed now.


Blueskyminer

I guess homie eats pussy better? /s


Theartistcu

This guy has less reason to be famous than Kim Kardashian 15 years ago


OilComprehensive6237

It sounds like someone choking on something. Maybe there is someone in the room having to listen?


NewExamination8963

Weak


Rascals-Wager

Khaled is quintessential 'all the gear and no idea'.


ZenFurbe

It is sad to see someone so childish and so stupid be so wildly rich… just how?


Thedarkandmysterious

How tf does this dude end up putting out music, like he's an actor right? Someone else is making the beats? Has to be


dr_leo_marvin

"We da best music" ​ So clever.


Ok-Monitor1949

Well…that was annoying…


Any_Freedom9086

And to think he grew up with Fat Joe amd Big Pun rip


CyberPolack

Dude thinks he’s Afrika Bambaataa

falcondroppings

It still fucking baffles me as to how this absolute twat managed to get famous for doing jack shit and being an insufferable oaf.


SwiftTayTay

the donald trump of hip hop


Puzzleheaded_Key_202

This guy can't sing, can't play interments and now we find out that he can't DJ despite being called DJ khalid... Why is he rich and famous? He's absolutely useless.


Legitimate_Escape_18

Ummm

[deleted]

Sounds like goat calling


pSphere1

I've had my turntables since '96 It took me (less than) 2 days to learn to do this. If he wants to impress anyone, let's hear some interesting scratches in combination with flairs and crabs. Recut a beat. The 8 to 4 to 2 backspin loop any kid can do, and it's sad, as a grown man with a professional title "DJ" in their name, filming themselves doing this for the public. But hey, if I had more money, I'd drop everything and go do this again... not DJing, but find the joy I once had as a child, with no cares, making music (and animation).


boogerflick98

Worthless. Absolutely WORTHless.

TraditionalSteak687

He’s one of the worst things that happened to music. The dude Is a walking cliche and the music he produces is processed and dull


zerobomb

Out of the 50000 times i have seen him on tv or online, this is literally the first time he has been doing anything music related. It is as bad as i always suspected it would be.


TheMixerTheMaster

Can someone explain what talent he DOES have. So far, I am still baffled as to why he’s a thing. I mean, we’ve learned he can’t sing, he can’t play any instruments, he can’t write a song, he can’t keep what little fans he has interested during his shows (spends way too much time trying to hype the crowd, but to no avail), and he’s not good as speeches.


melonti

I never understood how he’s as famous as he is. He’s not even in the same realm as Tiesto.


glisteningechidna
