Even though he pretty much just talks in catchphrases, he's just spreading positive vibes and you can't hate on that

[@muazqamar]

Hahahahah!! Best comment I've read in a while

[@snix89yt]

TheRealBeatMaster you don't see the hard work behind the scenes that he does.

[@phos4680]

What about now? He is suffering from Tyler's success

[@flamingdragon86]

@@snix89yt you don’t see it because he doesn’t do any of the work. He takes someone’s else’s work( that he had ZERO intake in) puts his name on it for financial gain. He should be sued and or thrown in jail for copyright infringement . He has ZERO producing credibility’s and that’s a fact. He knows his way around a buffet table but not a digital audio workstation.

[@SelinaaaBro10]

You just can't hate the guy. All he wants is for everyone to succeed, do their best and be thankful.

On the note of being stupid, I believe it's spelled "Ferrari". Carry on mate.

[@pho_rari]

obviously if he has alot of money and he's wearing expensive jewelry then he must be successful . but in turn , he wants everyone to be successful so they too can have alot of money and have nice things . everyone loves dj khaled because he's all about positivity and success , which you have neither . while he's doing his thing and becoming more successful , you're hating behind a keyboard .

+AVGVZT O U mad bro??

[@CH-jf2pz]

How can you hate this guy? He seems like a cool dude.

[@crasherball]

Ch4nd H how can you like this guy? he is a fool, an arrogant self centered dummy

[@sdvsraw2010]

crasherball Says the guy that has judged a man without ever meeting him personally.

[@dempseyhighroller1886]

+crasherball he just spreads positive vibes, stop being a hater you don't know what he's like in person

[@CH-jf2pz]

Rey 伶 he is famous because he is a famous producer. I guess u don't listen to rap.

[@Rey-yt3gn]

I love rap music. But miami based rapstars tend to be very superficial and ignorant in my opinion

[@MINDxWORM]

His last album just got Grammy nominated for best rap album and he doesn't even rap. Make some goddamn noise for this nigga!

how can you hate on dj khaled when he's so fucking positive god damn

[@Zubinism]

However dumb and irritating he might appear at times, it's amazing how much this man has achieved without having a talent equivalent to the kind of people he now hangs out with. He should really be an inspiration not a meme.

[@pramitbhowmick1906]

Zubin Sharma nicely said 😁😂

[@micahgmiranda]

He's got talent. They let him hang out cause he makes their beats. Just because most beat makers aren't in the limelight doesn't mean it isn't difficult.

[@har_oun95]

Zubin Sharma He got talent .... he made a lot of succeful hit songs in the last 8-10 Years .. producing rap and r&b songs .

[@Zubinism]

Micah Miranda as far as I've read and heard, he doesn't make any beats. He has been asked about it multiple times in interviews and he has admitted that he only serves to gather the many artists and the producers to work on a song and that's it. He used to be a radio personality before he entered this line of work. But no he does not make any beats. And trust me I recognise the works of good producers. It's just that he doesn't do it at all...

[@Zubinism]

haroun benghernaout also I'd like to add that I actually like his songs. Whatever he does we might never know for sure but his songs are one of the catchiest that's for sure. I've got nothing against the man I was just stating my opinion in my first comment which is still true...

How to be DJ Kahlad: 1) act weird on social media 2) get millions of junior high age followers 3) sell out and advertise any shit you can 4) get paid 5) repeat

[@lukef9720]

I think one think people forget is DJ Khaled has been around forever. I am almost 30 and I remember buying his CD's in my late teens. Yes, he is kind of comical now but one can't deny he has been on his grind for at least a decade.

[@DarkEggplant]

Appreciate you, Khaled. Papa bless.

[@Rockownz5150]

TJ Collins is my favorite recording artist.

honestly lets not forget the Khaled is a very nice & humble man.

[@cesarmadero05]

Papa Bless

[@TerrorBlades]

I'm always confused about "The others hate us" type of self-confidence. Its just about bullying though your idea no matter how bad it is.

[@SadistModeOn]

terrorblades it also shuts down constructive criticism which isn't helpful. I do believe there is a point when creating something that you just have to let go of caring about all the opposing views since nothing is going to be perfect for everyone. But him always saying "they", he sounds like a crazy paranoid person to me haha

[@JaBarge303]

terrorblades this is so true.

[@alx4316]

Sooo blessed!!!😃😃😃😃😃😃

[@brymoTube]

Bless up!

[@coryk5966]

0:46 God is great... hmm yeah that phrase has never caused any harm or damage.

[@tobblesmash6193]

I don't like his ego, all he talks about how much talent he's got, do like his positivity tho

[@user-ds5fr6ob3i]

He is weird but seems kind and genuine.
