D.J. Khaled: Movies & Box Office

Khaled Mohammed Khaled, known professionally as DJ Khaled, is an American disc jockey, record producer, songwriter, radio personality, music executive, memoirist, and actor whose career has spanned more than two decades, beginning in the late 1990s when he co‑hosted The Luke Show on Miami’s 99 Jamz and later launched his own radio program, The Takeover. Born on 1975‑11‑26 in New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S., to Palestinian immigrant parents, Khaled grew up surrounded by Arabic music yet gravitated toward hip‑hop and soul, eventually moving to Miami where he joined Fat Joe’s Terror Squad as a DJ and helped cultivate the early careers of artists like Birdman and Lil Wayne. His debut studio album, Listennn… the Album (2006), introduced his signature “anthem” style, and subsequent releases such as We the Best (2007) and Victory (2010) solidified his reputation for assembling star‑studded line‑ups that produced chart‑topping hits like “All I Do Is Win” and “I’m on One”. Khaled’s trademark booming voice and catchphrases—“Another one!” and “We the best!”—have become cultural memes, amplified by his prolific social‑media presence and viral Snapchat videos that turned him into an internet phenomenon. Beyond music, he authored the New York Times bestseller The Keys, acted in films like Bad Boys for Life and Spies in Disguise, and launched multiple business ventures including the We the Best Music Group label, a luxury furniture line, and a partnership with Bang & Olufsen for headphones. His personal life, highlighted by his marriage to Nicole Tuck and the births of sons Asahd (2016) and Aalam (2020), often features in his public storytelling, reinforcing his image as a charismatic, faith‑driven entrepreneur who continuously reshapes the landscape of contemporary hip‑hop and pop culture.
