DJ KHALED

Dj Khaled Biography :
Since the early 1990’s, the Miami scene has steadily grown into a personal playground for the entire entertainment industry. Events like How Can I Be Down, The Mix Power Summit, and the MTV Music Awards have attracted thousands of stars to the illusion of the Magic City nightlife. But once all the smoke clears, we get to finally focus on the true essence of Miami, which means attending the annual Fall Classic that is DJ Khaled’s Birthday Bash. The "mark your calendar event" started off as a simple get together for South Florida’s hottest DJ has since grown into a Dade County ritual, and that’s all due to one man, two turntables, and a squad of terror. Born Khaled Khaled (he’s so nice his mom named him twice), 30, in New Orleans to Arabic parents, Khaled was the second of three children. At age fourteen his love for music and influence from his parents led him down a path that would birth one of the greatest Deejays Miami has ever seen. Fans quickly took notice of DJ Khaled’s powerful style and energetic personality as he began throwing parties while a deejay on college radio. "God gave me a gift, so it’s only right that I lead the way with this new style." Great energy and an undeniable voice have helped Khaled land radio gigs with Mixx 96 and 99 Jamz, but for Khaled that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Success happens when preparation meets opportunity, which is why Mixx 96 quickly became Miami’s premiere underground radio station with Khaled as the deejay. For two years, DJ Khaled bigged up, dropped bombs, and rewound enough tracks to be crowned the official voice of South Florida. Never one to just sit comfortably on the throne, Khaled decided to "takeover" mainstream radio as the deejay for one of Miami’s most notable radio stations, 99 Jamz. Paired up with K-Foxx, DJ Khaled currently has the ..1 rated radio show in South Florida, adding another notch to his belt.

Over a decade on the radio has inspired Khaled to develop his own sound of music as he prepares to release his debut album. "Hip-Hop is everything and everywhere, so I have to be everything and everywhere." Khaled’s album filled with new energy and different ideas is exactly what the game needs right now. The LP, yet to be titled, will feature artist such as Fat Joe, Terror Squad, Lil Wayne, Game, and Juelz Santana just to name a few. The album will also include "crazy" production from the infamous DJ Khaled, and if it’s anything like his birthday bash, it’s sure to be a "mark your calendar event."

Although many Khaled fans may think that this is his first crack at production, it is not. The versatile deejay has produced tracks for artist like Trick Daddy, Pitbull, Young Jeezy, and his Terror Squad brother Fat Joe. As part of the Terror Squad family, Khaled has built a foundation strong enough to hold weight with his debut album. An album packed with loyalty, respect, and Miami love that can be described in one word, Incredible ! "I can see the headlines now, DJ Khaled’s new album reigns terror on the Hip-Hop world."- Renaissance Man.

Hi Khaled, man the whole muslim population would like to be right represented, against shitty american media, which bullshits american population each day about Islam. Man, each arab and black I know share this same opinion, and also lots of whites who live with us in Paris suburbs. U did good so far, but u should take political positions. People die because of your fucked up medias. (I live in france, fuck racist bitchy haters)

Salam A3laykoum

As-Salaama Alikyumu(Peace Be Upon You), DJ Khaled I wanted to ask you if you could step up and start rapping about more spirtual and positive things. I am 14 living in hammond, indiana and go to Mosque Maryam and I want someone a powerful and a leader of the rap game to start acting like a righteous and uplifting blackman and get the youth and our black people to start acting right and get into the right spirtual mind. Also, are you a muslim ?

Dj Khaled, by lily christianson [2008-10-09 15:54:22]

israel is a horrifying country , i sopport the palestinians out there ’cause jewish people hate both muslims and christians, thats why those 2 religions reunite together against the jewish people.. ive been in jerusalem and i saw how they cursed juses our messiah @$^#56 ! ! on the other hand muslims believe in juses and a lot of them even celebrates christian holidays. dont treat those terroristic people like osama ben laden and saddam, those are a bad people who twisted the essence of the islamic religion. now about palestine- if y’all put your self in there position you will see how hard is to live in a conquered country.. they live a normal life, but the discrimination is powerful then ever.. dont be stupid, dont sopport the jewish nation, in abroad they all nice, but inside israel they are a terrible people :| DJ khaled i admire u soo sooo much keep on and make us proud !

Hey DJ ! I’m a BIG fan of your record label, I know many people want to sign with you. But I’m not doing this for me, it’s for my boyfriend I’m a big fan of him also. He dont know I’m writing you but that really doesn’t matter. What does matter is he is very talented and I know many people think they are but this is real. But a little about him : His name first off Sonvi a.k.a BOMBE, he’s 21 soon to be 22, love to hang out he rep his ZOES to the fullest. He’s from Belle Glade, growed up in a struggle but he have big dreams of becoming a rapper, take care of his family and closes friends, and to give back to his community. I want this for him cause I know how bad he want it. I pray to god every night for him cause he tell me all the time " Baby I’ma make it one day and we gon be str8". I’m behind him now and I know when he make it I’ma be there. This is a dream for him and I want to help him fufill his dreams cause he have some big ones.
