DJ Khaled enjoys the freedom to be himself. Although his height and weight measurements are not ideal for a music star, he doesn’t worry about it. The rapper has a unique style – his massive body, short-cropped haircut, and long bushy beard are noticeable at red carpet events.
Mr. Khaled grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana in the family of Mike and Fifi Khaled, Palestine immigrants. His parents owned the clothes-selling stores. DJ Khaled has an older brother Alaa and a younger sister Lubna.
His parents were devoted music lovers, and they inspired their son Khaled to try his hand at writing musical rhythms. Later he worked as a clothes seller at a flea market and joined that activity with pawning off his mixtapes.
His life changed after he had crossed his ways with Lil Wayne and Birdman, who had just started their careers at that time while he was working at the music shop “Odyssey”. Khaled made up his final decision to become a rapper and DJ. He started by hosting parties at nightclubs. Then, he moved to Miami and became a co-host at The Luke Show at 99 Jamz. In the early 2000s, he started his show “The Takeover”.
In 2006 the musician released the debut set of songs “Listennn…the Album”. Immediately after its release, the album occupied the 12th position on the US Billboard 200. That was the beginning of his fame.
