Again, these folks aren't "talented" by traditional standards, but they've each found some hustle that's made them lots of money.
And that's why I can't quite figure out this DJ Khaled fella, because he has literally no discernible talent other than talking very loudly and very obnoxiously over other peoples' songs. And by other people, I mean literally everyone.
"We The Best?!?"
What's all this we stuff? I don't hear Khaled droppin' na'ar rhyme. He doesn't produce songs. He doesn't sing. He prolly isn't even a real DJ.[1] So what exactly is it that we do besides talk stoopid mumbojumbo at the needlessly drawn-out start of every song?
DJ Khaled is the Damon Jones of the rap game.
By Damon Jones, I mean a 15th man with zero game who just keeps latching onto superstars and somehow surviving year after year for reasons unknown. He's that guy at the end of the bench always poppin' sh*t but never gettin' buckets. He has superstar swag and journeyman talent.
Yup, DK Khaled = Damon Jones.
"Lissstennnnnnnnnn!"
Question: Does this DJ Khaled guy annoy the hell outta you too or are you too old to even know (or care) what a DJ Khaled is? Does he actually have any real talent or is he merely the Damon Jones of the rap game?
[1] And by DJ, I don't mean some talking head who introduces songs on your local Hot/Power/Foxxy station, I mean a dude who actually knows how to work the tables.

THANK. YOU. Shouty Hip Hop was better when Lil' Jon was doing it.
I know he does know how to work the tables, but as far as giving him any cred. Nope. He's just like every other mixtape DJ.
Did you know his name is Khaled Khaled? That little factual nugget is the least annoying thing about him. Dude, just SHUT UP. Damon Jones all the way.
I like the song he shouts on but not the shouting. That is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo annoying! But every DJ with a mixtape talks over the beginning of a song and ruins it.
wow! thank you so much for this post. i hate dj khaled so much. have you seen his episode of cribs? i wanted to kill myself he said the water in his pool was imported from the Bahamas. lmao.
"Akon re-introduced the world to the joys of Autotune."
Lmao!
Dude, I was just having the same convo with a coworker about this talentless bastard. There are several reasons i hate this duche but No.1 on the list is his over use of the word nigga. It's no secret that many Arabs in the hood hate black folks and everytime he says it I just want to smack the shit outta him. Fuck going hard, go kill yourself
DJ Clue was the first dude I can remember doing this. Every other word was "Clue!", "Ha Haaa", and Clueminatiiii!". All done with a slight echo reverb thing. But yeah I agree, I hate this dude too.
@ Yellow Fellow
I admit, I got a few dozen DJ Clue tapes in my attic.
"DO REMEMBER!"
"FAT SHOUT!"
"WHAT!!!"
But Khaled is a whole nother level of annoying. Argh.
@AB
Did you just say "a whole nother"?
LOL, if there still any doubt to your blackness there is the proof. I still catch myself saying "Finna" and "Imbowtsta" in front of my customers.
I think Khaled does have some production and DJ Skillz, but its mostly mix tapes he does. Just like DJ Drama.
Gangta Grizzills!
I am so glad someone else said what I was thinking about DJ Khaled. That guy truly sucks. His voice annoys the crap out of me.
He annoys the shit out of me.
Dj Clue used to annoy me too but Khaled is the WORST! At least DJ Clue was somewhat decent lookin'.
The purpose of guys like Kaled is to trick 15 year old white kids into thinking its good music.
mixtape DJ's = glorified hype men.
this is why I HATE mixtapes now. I guess it's because I'm stubborn and refuse to get with the times, but I remember back in the day, a mixtape was just that...an actual DJ, cutting, scraching and, well...mixing.
