DJ Khaled entered the Hip Hop industry as a local disc jockey in Miami, Florida, and over the years has evolved into a full-blown record executive. However, Khaled also spent time crafting beats for himself and others as a producer.
On Tuesday (February 1), the We The Best boss decided to remind people he still gets busy behind the boards by posting a video of him doing precisely that. The clip shows Khaled sitting in front of his prized MPC3000 beat machine and cooking up a beat from scratch.
DJ Khaled’s on-the-spot production rattled speakers with its pounding bass and percussion, but some fans weren’t impressed by the beat and proceeded to roast the Major Key don for his dated-sounding production chops.
“Tell him go find KRSONE & give it to him cause nobody else want that shit,” one fan joked, while another added, “1984 techno ass beat fuck wrong wit this lemon.”
A third person likened to beat to a Run-DMC song while someone else referenced The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song, commenting, “Now, this is a story all about how My life got flipped-turned upside down.”
Even though his production skills may need a little improvement, DJ Khaled isn’t letting that stop him from working on new music. Last month, the Miami mogul hinted at another collaboration with Drake in 2022.
“Me and Drake — first of all, we brothers, that’s family,” he said in a social media clip. “And 2022, if you’re [asking] does Khaled and Drake have something? Of course, we’re always going to have something … But it gotta come out a certain way.”
Khaled also hit the studio with Kanye West for a sneaker-shredding session last month, announcing to the world, “The Ye vocals are in.”
Newsflash, he has none.
Khaled, Producer? Lol…. didn’t know it was April Fool’s already.
Everything he touches turns to sh*t or is already sh*t once he completes it or gets his hands on it.
“Uh Uh.. This guy sucks ass!”
I done messed with one of those back in the day and it aint easy. I give him credit for it. What yall haters want ? Its a fucking bassline with snares filmed on a camera phone. Yall see he got the keyboard in the background. Im sure the beat isnt even 25% done. Id rather see him actually produce a beat instead of just screaming we the best before someody elses beat comes on.
Wish he’d swallow his pride and go follow Scott Storch on instagram and watch and listen to real melodic beats being cooked up over there
pro beat maker – not!
pro arse licker – yup!
His real passion is the guitar.
All it takes is him to add one synth lead to this to make it a hit. It doesn’t sound that different from the drums and bass of “Taste” by Tyga and Offset.
He still knows how to put a hit together tho
He got engineers plus he jacking beats ..I don’t like the stuff he does make with them ..he been trash..
I bet you he will slow it down and add more to it for a hit. All beats sound shit when starting out.
Leave it be!
