Music Career

Odyssey Record Store

In the early 90s, Khaled was able to secure a job at Odyssey, a record store based in New Orleans. According to an interview Khaled did on the ‘Drink Champs’ podcast, he would DJ at the Odyssey record store, where both Lil Wayne and Birdman would frequently visit. It was through this job that DJ Khaled first established a connection with the pair. After leaving Odyssey, Khaled would DJ in reggae sound clashes, mixing dancehall and hip-hop music together.

Mixx 96 Pirate Radio Station

In the mid-90s, Khaled moved from New Orleans to Orlando, Florida, after winning $5,000 in a DJ contest. However, he would soon spend a month in jail for being caught multiple times driving with a suspended license. After getting out of jail, he moved from Orlando to Miami and would take DJ gigs wherever he could find them. In 1996, he secured a job as a DJ at a Caribbean pirate radio station, Mixx 96.

99 Jamz Hip-Hop Radio

In 1997, DJ Khaled would start DJing for a regular Friday-night show on 99 Jamz, a Miami-based hip-hop radio station. 99 Jamz was the station where Khaled could start building traction for his career as a DJ. In 2003, Khaled was given his own show on 99 Jamz and stayed at the station for another ten years.

We the Best

Khaled quickly gained a passion for creating his own music, and in 2006, ‘We the Best Music Group’, Khaled’s own record label, was born. By the time Khaled had put together his own record label, he’d already established great connections within the industry, and so he was able to get a lot of incredible artists to feature on his very first album, ‘Listennn… the album’.

The album was released on June 6, 2006, and featured artists such as:

• Lil Wayne
• Rick Ross
• Jadakiss
• John Legend
• Kanye West
• T.I.
• Fat Joe
• Pitbull

In 2007, DJ Khaled released his second studio album, ‘We the Best’. The success of the album led to a flourishing of further albums from Khaled in the years to come, which we’ve listed below.

Another Wing

DJ Khaled has also been involved in ventures beyond DJing and music production. One of these ventures, and one of the latest, to be precise, is Another Wing. Another Wing is a chicken wing delivery service that operates in 150 locations across five separate countries:

• USA
• UK
• Canada
• France
• UAE

The wings are prepared and cooked in ‘ghost kitchens’ and then made available to order on food delivery apps such as Deliveroo and Seamless

We the Best Merchandise

The ‘We the Best’ store offers various merchandise related to DJ Khaled’s album releases. These collections primarily consist of apparel items, including T-shirts, hoodies, socks, and sweatshirts.

Real Estate

Aventura Waterfront Home

In 2015, DJ Khaled paid $3.84 million for a 6,321-square-foot, six-bedroom home in the Island Estates community of Aventura, Florida. In December 2018, he listed this property for sale, with an asking price of $8 million. In April 2019, the price was reduced to $6.6 million and then again to $6 million at the end of the year. Khaled sold the home for $4.8 million in July 2020. The property is currently on the market again for $16.4 million.

Beverly Hills Mansion

In December 2016, DJ Khaled paid $9.9 million to buy a 10,681-square-foot, seven-bedroom, eleven-bathroom mansion in Beverly Hills from singer Robbie Williams. Robbie had paid $5.45 million for the property in 2002. In March 2021, Khaled sold the home for $12.5 million, netting a gross profit of $2.6 million. After considering property taxes and agent fees, his net profit was likely between $1.3 million and $1.5 million.

Miami Beach Mansion

In September 2018, DJ Khaled paid $21.75 million for a 12,750-square-foot, nine-bedroom, ten-bathroom mansion in Miami Beach, Florida. The seller, Michael Lerner, had been asking for $29.5 million since December of the previous year.
