DJ Khaled

“People will try to bring you down, but you gotta go up.”

“I remember I used to sleep on my records. In a room with no furniture. I remember I used to sleep in my car.”

“The key is to vote because we need a vote to put the people in power that we want to represent us.”

“For a date night with my girlfriend, we go to Zuma for Japanese.”

“Basically what I'm trying to tell you is that it's almost impossible to drive a jet ski at night time unless you're in a city with lights lit up so you can navigate. Besides being pitch black, that water turn black at night. Listen, I don't recommend it.”

“All of my records, I produced, put together completely. All of them. Maybe Drake might come with an idea, and I might finish it. You gotta remember what a producer is. Quincy Jones is a producer.”

“We want justice, but at the same time, we gotta love and come together and bring unity, and I feel it's gonna happen.”

“I feel like people can relate to me because we all go through wins and roadblocks and passion and pain, and it's a vibe.”

“I put together amazing records, whether that's finding the beat or putting the right hook on there, and picking the right artists on the record. That's me being an A&R. And I'm making sure that they give me their best.”

“The new Khaled is enjoying life, man. Because you know what, nobody is going to congratulate you on what you really deserve.”

“I always wanted to have a headphone line but I feel like I'm going to do more than just headphones eventually, but we want to wake the world up right now with this.”

“You gotta understand: I believe a woman should praise the man, the king. If you holding it down for your woman, I feel like the woman should praise. And the man should praise the queen.”

“It's safe to say headphones is a good business.”

“A producer gets the whole vision done from top to bottom, to making the record to having the record delivered to the world. That's a producer.”

“I don't think I would run for president.”

“When I inspire myself, I want to spread the word because its important to be healthy. I don't think they're teaching us enough about that. I think we should eat better and exercise. Look who's saying that - a guy who was 300 pounds - but I'm doing a lot better than I used to. I'm letting people know its important because it makes you feel better.”

“I'm honored that everybody's inspired off my inspiration.”

“Everyone I look up to is bringing me into the tech world. You'd be surprised by all the music people in it, invested in it.”

“When it all got taken away, I was becoming a young man. So I had to sacrifice to leave my family... Sleeping in my car, getting an apartment for a month and getting evicted the next month. Staying in the $25, $50 hotels.”

“I love stuff from the Holy Land. It makes me feel blessed.”
