Al op jonge leeftijd is Khaled Mohamed Khaled gefascineerd van rap en luisterde, tijdens zijn werk in een plaatselijke muziekwinkel, naar alle nieuwe releases. In 1993 ontmoet hij in die platenwinkel Lil Wayne en Birdman. In de jaren daarna gaat hij aan de slag als dj en daarmee weet hij een eigen radioshow af te dwingen.

In 2006 verschijnt zijn debuutalbum Listennn… The Album en kort daarna wordt hij ook lid van Terror Squad. In de jaren daarna levert hij zelf de albums We The Best en We Global af. In 2010 is Victory dan zijn vierde album waarop onder meer Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Drake en Nelly met de dj samenwerken.

Sinds februari 2016 heeft hij een eigen radioshow op Beats 1, We The Best. In 2017 verschijnt zijn tiende album, Grateful. In de aanloop naar dat album verschijnt de track Shining (met Beyoncé en Jay Z) en komt een lang gekoesterde wens van Khaled uit, een samenwerking met Justin Bieber. Die werkt, net als Quavo, Chance The Rapper en ook Lil Wayne, mee aan het nummer I’m The One dat in april van 2017 wordt uitgebracht. I'm The One bereikt de tweede plaats in de Top 40 en krijgt met To The Max, waarop Drake te horen is, een opvolger. Kort voor de release van zijn tiende album, Grateful, verschijnt ook de track Wild Thoughts met Rihanna en Bryson Tiller.

DJ Khaled

Yeah, you're lookin' at the truth
The money never lie, no

Early mornin' in the dawn
Know you wanna ride now (Let's ride)
I'm the one, yeah (Let's ride)
I'm the one, yeah
And you sick of all those other imitators
Don't let the only real one intimidate ya
See you watchin', don't run outta time now
I'm the one, yeah

Oh-eh-oh-oh-oh, eh-oh

Quavo

I'm the one
That hit that same spot (Hit it)
She the one
That bring them rain drops (Rain drops)
We go back
Remember criss-cross and hopscotch (Hopscotch)
You the one that hold me down
When the block's hot (Hot)
I make your dreams come true
When you wake up (Dream)
And your look's just the same
Without no make-up
Had to pull up on your mama
See what you're made of (Mama)
Ain't gotta worry 'bout them commas
Cause my cake up (Cake)
You can run inside my life
From that fame bus (Skrrr)
Cause I promise, when we step out
You'll be famous (Yeah)
Modern day Bonnie and Clyde
What they named us (Clyde)
Cause when we pull up
Prr prr, all angles

Yeah, you're lookin' at the truth

With that new Chanel
She like the price, she see the ice
It make her coochie melt
When I met her in the club
I asked her who she felt
Then she went and put that booty
On that Gucci belt

We don't got no label
She say she want bottles
She ain't got no table
She don't got no bed frame
She don't got no tables
We just watchin' Netflix
She ain't got no cable
Okay though

Plug, plug, plug
I'm the plug for her
She wanted a nigga that pull her hair
And hold the door for her
Baby, that's only me
Bitch, it okay with me
Baby, okay

Lookin' for the one
Well, bitch, you're lookin' at the one
I'm the best yet
And yet my best is yet to come
Cause I've been lookin' for somebody
Not just any fuckin' body
Don't make me catch a body
That's for any and everybody
Oh, my God
She hit me up all day, get no response
Bitch, you blow my high
That's like turnin' gold to bronze
Roll my eyes
And when she on the molly she a zombie
She think we Clyde and Bonnie
But it's more like Whitney and Bobby
God, forgive me
Tunechi F finessin', I'm a legend
Straight up out The Crescent
Fly your bae down for the Essence
For the record, I knew Khaled
When that boy was spinnin' records
Mula gang winnin' record
I'm just flexin' on my exes, oh God

Yeah, you're lookin' at the truth
The money never lie, no
I'm the one, yeah
I'm the one
Early mornin' in the dawn
Know you wanna ride now (Let's ride)
