Fresh sneakers are important on a man. It's like a new pair of boxers or a new pair of socks.
I would love to get Rihanna on a Khaled song. That's my friend, but every time I'm around her, I get shy.
I don't think I would run for president.
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.
I wanna thank MTV and the VMAs for choosing me to be a part of the show because, on this show, if you not an icon or upcomin' icon, you're not on the show, you know?
It feels good being a restaurant owner because it's part of my dreams of being the biggest mogul.
I'm just changing the game because I know what the fans want and the people want 'cause I'm a fan of hip-hop.
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.
A Khaled record is always the best.
I'm the king of the anthems.
I'm definitely gaining new fans, and that's the key of any success... gain more love.
Don't ever play yourself.
We all want to win more, but it's all about being blessed and embracing your blessings. We have life.
Jeb Bush, I appreciate you. You a leader. You a Bush.
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.
When my record comes on, you know that's a DJ Khaled record. That's my formula, and the people love it.
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.
I love Chris Brown. He's a superstar. He's one of the best singers out there.
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.
It confuses me and disappoints me when somebody says, 'What does he do? What does he do?' My records are some of the biggest anthems ever. What do you think, they magically just appear? Obama walked out to my record.
For a date night with my girlfriend, we go to Zuma for Japanese.
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.
Nicki Minaj, will you marry me?
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 feel real good because it's about representing the young world and how to uplift each other and how to push us to be greater and make sure we don't fall or get trapped or get in trouble, you know what I mean. Stay focused, you know what I mean.
I would love to work with Eminem, Dr. Dre. I wish I could have been in the studio with Bob Marley.
I put cocoa butter all over my face and my iconic belly and my arms and legs. Why live rough? Live smooth.
Love to everybody who is out there progressing and taking things to the next level.
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.
That's when you know you're the greatest: when you're the greatest, and people still put odds against you.
Every dollar I made from DJing, I put into my videos, promotion - everything.
Lil Wayne, that's my brother. Birdman, that's family.
I remember they used to tell me, they said, 'Khaled, you can't get a Rolls-Royce; you need to get one of them small ones.' So I went and bought a Phantom.
I love stuff from the Holy Land. It makes me feel blessed.
I'm all about peace. I'm all about unity. I'm all about love.
I've always been a fan of the VMAs, and I've always worked hard just to get a ticket to go to the VMAs.
Everybody around me had a Snapchat, and I said I would never get on it. I'm still on Instagram, you know? They convinced me to get Snapchat.
I'm one of them guys that tries to make everything the best of the best, so sometimes I'm out of control with it.
I've been a mogul and executive since the beginning of my career. People are just born with that skill.
I love having an unlimited supply of cocoa butter.
I know love is the answer.
I've been blessed to be somebody that's been climbing that success mountain top for years of hard work, you know, but now it's all connecting. And now, the whole world is watching, you know what I'm saying, and it feels good 'cause it's good energy. This is all positive vibes, and good vibes and good energy, so it feels incredible.
I always make my dreams into goals.
To keep the business going, you gotta keep it boomin'.
For me to talk with Obama and the conversation I had with him, I was letting him know that me and my fans have a special connection, and it's love, and I believe that love is the answer.
At the end of the day, I understand that life has road blocks, and life is like school - you'll be tested; we gotta pass it.
If I'm in the 'hood, I like Chef Creole's Haitian rice and stewed chicken.
