DJ Khaled’s career arc has seen him go from Terror Squad DJ to Miami hitmaker to a man Fat Joe proudly referred to as the “Quincy Jones of Hip Hop.” Khaled’s catalog has produced a number of classic records such as “I’m On One,” with Drake, Lil Wayne and Rick Ross and “We Takin’ Over,” but in terms of competition, Khaled believes he’s unapproachable in any setting, including a mythical Verzuz.
While crafting shrimp fried rice with Trick Daddy for Trick Daddy Dollars’ I Got My Pots YouTube series on YouTube Thursday (May 12), Khaled laid down the gauntlet and boldly proclaimed no one could see him in a Verzuz type event.
“To answer your question, I really don’t see nobody” Khaled began. “My catalog is super strong … I’m from Miami so if you expect me to be like … I don’t see nobody, and I mean that with love. My catalog is strong. You might wanna Google it and go check out my catalog, I been doing this shit for two decades! And I been putting hit records out for damn near 15 years! So really think about what you thinking and what you saying because Khaled got hits! A lot of hits!”
Despite the bravado, Khaled did reveal he would want to do a Verzuz after he felt his career was hitting the sunset.
“For me, I wouldn’t do a Verzuz right now but if I ever did one, I would want to do it when I decide to not wanna make music no more,” Khaled said. “That’s when I want my catalog to be praised, but right now, I’m just getting started.”
Metro Boomin Explains Why He Won't Be Doing A Verzuz Anytime Soon
A number of artists have previously proclaimed they were untouchable when you examined their catalog and history in music, including Diddy who feels he has only one worthy opponent in Dr. Dre and JAY-Z who during a Twitter Spaces in 2021 brushed off any competition.
In April, Metro Boomin became the latest producer to preemptively call off a potential Verzuz, telling a fan he needed at least 20 more years in Hip Hop before he felt his catalog was right, even after a 13-year run which saw him release four collaborative albums, three mixtapes, one studio album and a countless number of hits.
After holding a gospel-themed Verzuz for Easter, the event is back to toasting Hip Hop with a clash between Onyx and Cypress Hill set for Saturday (May 14).
Yes no one can compete with him… in a eating contest fat ass bitch. Im about to put a 100,000 hit out through jenny craig to come fund his fat ass and put him on a fat farm fat bitch!!!
Someone should tell this fat fucker that Verzuz doesn’t work that way… You can’t show up and play other people’s songs that you yell over lol.
He’s a shit producer, doesn’t rap/sing just shit adlibs – must be competition for Swizz ( Swizz has a handful of decent tracks though)
This guy has a lot of money but zero respect in hip hop! Everybody hates this fat guy!
This clown can’t be serious ???????
Ha, shut up you walking blob of diabetes. You’ve got NO hits. Vanilla Ice would roast you in a versus. Fat fugg.
I’m so good, all I do is Win, I’m on one, no new friends, For Free, Do you Mind, I’m the one, Wild Thoughts, No Brainer, Popstar, Greece, and every chance I get were big hits
Those aren’t his songs. He didn’t produce any of those. Check the producer credits. He’s an executive producer… meaning he just runs his mouth and tells people his ideas and takes credit for it. He’s a fake.
DJ Khaled has zero songs in his catalog
I aint never heard that man rap or sing once. And a producer verzuz means you actually gotta make the beat even if you have no vocals in the song. DJ Khaled plays with the drum machine for fun but has never actually had someone lay down vocals to one of his beats to count it as a Khaled produced track.
That’s not true, he has a whole production discography check the credits.
kay slay would eat that fat pig alive
Dre, Storch, Pharrell getting this so called no turntable touching the phone no beat making producer outta here
At doing nothing? Yeah, I’m sure that’s what he means, right?
Dj Khaled is a producer. Dj Premiere doesn’t rap either and yet nine of you talk shit about him
Khalid is an executive producer. He just makes things happen by getting the right people together. I do not want to say that is is no work. But DJ Premier is a beatmaking genius.
He still does far more than you do in your pathetic life
Why so mad bro? Guy just gave you a measured response and you act like he murdered your childhood hero lol
I think Tyler would destroy you as always.
Tyler sucks as a rapper
Your mom sucks as a prostitute. I want my 2 dollars back.
KaySlay would serve him a plate.
DJ Khaled is a bitch ass culture vulture..
This man is the living example of fake it till you make it.
how many likes how many views on youtube.
I concur with this fat fuck… if verzuz was a eating donut contest
Premier Showbiz Timberland, Madlib, Dilla, Neptunes RZA. The list goes on and on. How many of those beats did you make? Did you actually DJ anything? No, no and no.
Alchemist.
YE
We The Best is the most annoying shit ever, even more so then flex I have to say
WTF? PCP? Crack? Whatever he’s on, I want some. His shit might be popular in certain circles, but that’s just proof the world is full of idiots.
Wack as hell
Someone else music… you might have the rights but bruh you did nothing on those hits!
Vanilla Ice levels of corniness
