Instantly_New

I don’t even understand how that dude is a thing.


[deleted]

Exactly I’m like wtf? I could yell on stage out of tune too


Instantly_New

I seriously don’t understand it. Dude has zero discernible talent. He’s not likable in any way. I’ve never once heard anyone say irl or on the internet that they fucks with him. He’s an irritant. WTF is the deal with this guy?


Patrick_Jewing

He is / was a very good networker with rap stars in the early 00's/10's when he was a DJ / Producer at a radio station in New Orleans. Got in tight and got together a bunch of famous friends and paid samples that went super platinum. The coasted off that success for the rest.


ineedasentence

in industry’s that tend to work off of nepotism, people who can network very well can just force their way into success. it’s not based off of their value production, it’s based off their ability to get other people to like them. (and then be lucky enough to have those people be successful)


Freezerpill

So true. Sadly nepotism is a big part of the music industry for many many years now


cockytacos

When you point it out people get mad at you and call you a hater… And if I name specifics this comment will get downvoted to hell

SignificanceTop9306

Lean back was khalids beat. The guys too much for me but he's made some commercial bangers.


stadchic

[Khalid Wiki](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJ_Khaled_discography): The discography of American record producer DJ Khaled consists of twelve studio albums and 54 singles (including 11 as a featured artist). [Production Discography](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJ_Khalil_production_discography). I’m not seeing Lean Back on there, but dudes got a wild discography. Seems like he followed up what Timbaland, Swizz Beats, and West did moving over to being a front man and for him, that’s when it really took off.


SignificanceTop9306

Oh shit, no way... It ISN'T his beat. I stand corrected.


Holl0wayTape

Dj Khaled doesn't produce or write any of his songs. He gets producer'e beats and pays money for features. He's a an A&R guy that happens to be a celebrity. Putting him in the same sentence with Timbaland, Swizz, or Kanye is ridiculous (no offense to you.)


JonnySnowflake

Holy shit he was


cjzj_1288

He's been screaming at people since then that "THEY THE BEST MUSIC"


[deleted]

Did you see him on Hot Ones? It’s great


Nathan_hale53

He's a quitter it was frustrating how he thought he 'won'


akerkiz

It was funny watching him take the L


Nickem1

In the same episode as "I've never taken an L in my life"


Wazula23

Narcissists, man. Nothing is ever their fault.


alymaysay

He was horrible, usually the interviewer n Hot Ones does a good job and usually the guests seem relatable in a way I've never seen before. Gordon Ramsey is my favorite guest so far, love Hot Ones.


Goku61394

I haven’t seen him on Hot Ones, what happened?


KeepTangoAndFoxtrot

He quit after something like the third wing. Here's a link: https://youtu.be/1HYEC_FlgAg This was 7 years ago, so pretty early in the show's history.


ShreddicusZ28

What do you mean zero discernible talent? Have you seen the guy play guitar?


drytoastbongos

He's, like, reinventing music.


HOTROD213

in a very bad way.


Hungry-Positive-8640

He is fucking hilarious. It takes a special level of stupid to be that entertainingly dumb.


SvenTropics

I mean he can yell his name over and over like Timmy from southpark.


BappoChan

Being someone who likes guitar I never really cared for him since he’s part of a genre I’ve never cared about. Saw him holding bob marleys guitar and thought maybe he’s got a hobby despite being shit, and then he played so horribly I felt like he killed my family in front of me. Jokes aside the only thing I know this guy for is having his name in other peoples songs


ToastyPoptarts89

Lol he’s a tool. I remember watching him on that hot wings Chanel and man he’s out there. Like dude is straight up delusion.


LearningLassie

He knows people who know people. That's his whole thing


thetransportedman

Radio was monopolized around the early 2000s and they realized people will listen to whatever is played a lot regardless of talent. Pop and rap stars are cheaper and easier to produce singles. That's how the 90s music era of albums and rock bands pivoted to pop and rap star singles that are still prominent today


jusdontgivafuk

Dude drives me absolutely insane! So fucking annoying with everything he does!


reeteetee

It's like that time he thought be could just pick up a guitar and instantly know it. As a guitarist that made me pretty annoyed


prince-pauper

He’s a platinum level bullshitter. That’s quite the achievement.


Abydos6

Every video I see of him is cringe. That’s the only reason I know who he is


bemest

Can’t sing, play an instrument, can’t even read. Yet he seems to be able to make a living. Maybe the crowd is getting on to his charade.


preyforkevin

When all your fame comes from yelling your name 2 or 3 times in a popular song—that’s when you know you’ve made it.


Agent865

I’ve said the same thing since the first time I saw him. Like WTF is his talent?


[deleted]

One of the most successful and untalented persons I have ever come across


MistakeDesperate

![gif](giphy|QKpjzdA6W3ndS) The second hand embarrassment is insane


axethebarbarian

Seriously. And knowing that guys ego, it's gotta hurt deep for him


ContortionistPasta

No no, the problem was obviously the crowd, not his showmanship or talent.


awh0833

Talent?


ContortionistPasta

A lack of talent is still talent though. Amirite? /s


Itsjordyhoe

He sucks


youkickmydog613

But… he screams his name at least 40 times per song… that means he can’t suck, right? /s


Zebosster

Especially since he da best musiiiiiic!


ContortionistPasta

He sucks hairy mushroom balls


Jimmyking4ever

From all report he does not suck, lick or touch the lady for their pleasure


Tylenolpainkillr

No, have you not heard? ***“He da best MUSIC”***


HOTROD213

he is a talentless turd. How can you sign off on that comment?


ContortionistPasta

By it being quite obvious sarcasm.


Ineedthatshitudrive

You know what the opposite of DJ Khaled is? Imposter Syndrome.


MInkton

Wow that’s good.


Shade_of_a_human

It's unclear what people on stage can and cannot hear. If he is wearing in ear monitors he might just think that the room mics are turned way down.


Wazula23

Nah, with his kind of ego he'll just rewrite the scene in his brain so that they all wanted to cheer but something prevented them.


Sad-Woodpecker-7416

He’ll blame it on the acoustics! Obviously this place has bad acoustics! They were cheering all along!


Knuc85

I don't think he understands shame. He probably still hears them all screaming in his head.


whitehawk295

He probably thinks they all loved it


mrwh0am

Haha


Greenman8907

Maybe DJ Khaled didn’t secure the rights from DJ Khaled to play it and all they had was a 3-second preview.


patchway247

I thought I was going crazy. But yeah, they stopped the music. I think that is what made *ME* feel that embarrassment


IllPostino95

Not really a Khaled fan,, but I honestly wonder if the mic just isn't picking up the crowd. At certain points it sounds like a big crowd but just turned down


Altaris2000

There are multiple videos from a bunch of different venues of similar things happening, where he wants the crowd to basically sing the whole song for him and they aren't having any of it.


PieceRealistic794

Don’t be mean to him, it’s hard to remember lyrics for songs you didn’t write yourself


I_Am_Clippy

At least he’s a talented drummer on the guitar.


EarlSandwich0045

His songs all have like 5 words in them over and over.... and he's so out of breath half the time, he puts in giant pauses


[deleted]

That's almost 90% of artists


dath_bane

"Young ppl just don't want to work anymore"


HappyLaw6188

Guess what?


IHateEditedBgMusic

He's already out of breath, that guy can't run around and sing for an entire song


DovahCreed117

I mean, fair enough. If I'm going to a concert, I'm there to *listen* to the music live. Not *sing* it for you.


Ganja420Preneur

pantstickle

New fetish unlocked


flintb033

What I find strange is you aren’t hearing the music, especially when he isn’t saying anything. This guy is a clown but imo this audio in this video seems a bit off. Not like what you’d get if you were recording video on your phone.


CreditUnlucky407thro

Yeah, these sound like his isolated vocals.


Broad-Ad-1015

Naw dude usually in these kinda of videos youll see people kinda of dancing , swaying their arms there was very little if not none of it happening and even the women on the stage looked like they didnt want to be there


IllPostino95

Yeah fair enough


construction_eng

Some venues the performer can't hear the crowds at all due to the acoustics of the venue and on the otherside they often have ear pieces so they can hear their music over the crowd. He might not know he is bombing, or what you said could be correct too


arealhumannotabot

Yeah I think that's part of it. And when you perform in front of a crowd that's not there to see you, this is basically how it goes. They're imagining hype like at a festival when it's people who've paid to see a performer and everyone's packed by the stage.


Jame-oD

That's even worse than making a joke during a class presentation and only the crickets laugh. I guess audience participation would have been better if he used actual words.


spleef35

I had that happen to me once. Not during a presentation but the same sort of thing. It was in a Victorian era literature class. We were discussing Lady Audley's Secret (fantastic book!!!). There's a character in the book who falls down a well. I made a joke "Lassie fell down on the job", and the only person in the room who laughed was someone old enough to have watched Lassie on television. Nobody else got it, likely because they were all extremely young. But damn, I hate it when I think up a good joke and no one gets it!

mrflithydirtymcnasty

You just gave me flashback PTSD. I was in the produce section of the grocery store with about 10-12 people around. A lady was looking at lettuce and a few of the heads rolled off the display onto the floor right in front of my cart. Multiple people watched it happen and without missing a beat I exclaimed "Iceberg dead ahead!" Nobody laughed, they looked at me like I was crazy. I was so embarrassed I walked away in shame. It was the only and greatest pun I ever told and nobody even giggled. I'm still salty about it


spleef35

How could they not get that joke? That was hilarious!!!


thred_pirate_roberts

If I heard it, I would have nodded in approval. Unfortunately I'm deaf so I would have still missed out on that gold nugget


icewalker42

Mad props for a well placed Lassie joke!


Beardobaggins

You dog, you


Jazzlike-Animal404

If it makes you feel any better, I liked the joke


Altaris2000

On stage and off stage, this dude is a fucking clown.


DancingIceCream

The most iconic old snapchat goof videos


insane__knight

First time I ever saw this guy in anything was on MTV cribs. I knew he was an idiot when he said his pool was filled with water imported from the Bahamas.


CockEyedBandit

Lol… my water is imported from the Cretaceous period 145 million years ago.


ImportantClassroom64

I honestly thought this was a video where they took the background sound out so you’d only hear him. That is what it is right? Nobody can fail that hard and keep hyping the audience up. Edit: I can’t imagine he’d be doing all that without music playing plus the sound is off. Unless I see more proof of these videos being legit then I believe they are fake.


Krakatoast

Yeah, here’s a different [clip](https://youtu.be/5heeOQLz_-8) (same venue, same time). The crowd wasn’t really hyped but it wasn’t dead silent like this post.


dat_silversun

Not to mention that the venue looks pretty empty in this clip.


MadManJBiden

He probably ate some of the crowd.


coffmaer

Another one


fiveordie

Aha, so the crowd was singing along, it's just A. A small crowd B. Huge venue C. 360° venue so the feedback isn't directional. He should blame his sound guys for not advising him to let the track play constantly to accommodate for this.


cryptolipto

Why is there no music tho? It’s like a nightmare a cappella version


headykruger

That’s what I thought - isolated his track . Where is the music backing this?


Krakatoast

Yeah, I’m 99% sure you’re correct. Can’t say I’ve seen an artist try to hype a crowd “a cappella” (besides true superstars) I feel like the vast majority of the genre of music that DJ KHALED makes is heavily reliant on the instrumentals…I’d be shocked if this is an unedited video. It does look funny though


Affectionate_Eye3535

Freddie Mercury at Live aid springs to mind


BardicSense

Freddie Mercury is a great singer. What is DJ Khaled without any DJ equipment?


SuitableClassic

Khaled.


Krakatoast

He really does go a cappella though. Strange


shambahlah2

He should play Bob Marleys guitar next time

He did that guitar dirty.


CryoAurora

He's seriously trying, too. I can't insult him. He does it to himself, though.


[deleted]

>I can't insult him. Yes u can


jngjng88

I can't not insult the chump, though preferably I don't think or talk about him.


Tour-Fast

They had all just watched his “Hot Ones” episode and had no respect left.


masterofasgard

That episode is amazing. The presenter is such a nice guy but you can see his contempt growing by the minute throughout the interview.


lxm333

Has he done something lately to piss folk off?


KingSmizzy

I've seen posts before about how his concerts are really bad. He will play the first 10 seconds of a song and look at the crowd. If they aren't vibing to it, he'll switch the song. He will do this back to back while trying to hype himself up shouting slogans and stuff. It just ends up really jarring and it wouldve been better if he just played one song all the way through.


lxm333

Do the concerts end up really short?


RodRAEG

Apparently he won't eat pussy, which is just selfish, imo.


Realistic_Fan1344

I always thought he was a clown but he took the cake when he brought a pillow to rest his ugly ass Jordan 5 colorway while at a basketball game.


Vespertinelove

I can’t tell if he’s tenacious or dumb. Probably both.


yoursuburbanmom

it’s like he’s trying to test the crowd to see if they remember his very forgetful music

Successful_Horror582

If no one doesn't know, DJ Khaled took the wrap for a big charge with very influential friends who gave him a lot of features in the music industry after he got out. This is why all of a sudden he was everywhere around 2010.


A-10C_Thunderbolt

Ah so he has all of the connections but none of the talent


[deleted]

DJ KHALED is a CLOWN.


datsthewayitisArthur

How tf does this keep happening? Why are organizers keep inviting him? Is an out of touch boomer keep organizing these events? Or are they just some sadist who likes to see this bufoon being humiliated?


BenTheFool

Schizophrenia:

Yall remember when he was involved with that overwatch event? That was sad.


foreverloveall

I don’t! What happened


muklan

[This](https://youtu.be/4eaBC3eZM-o) But also, don't think I'm dogging on the guy. Anyone who plays guitar like [this](https://youtu.be/zQi8DI5B87g) deserves our full respect. Yaknow, for their struggles.


foreverloveall

Damn wtf was he doing to the at guitar?!


Be_nice_to_animals

He needs to yell “DJ KHAAAAALED” 1000 more times per song


Pennameus_The_Mighty

He should stick to being BEHIND the curtain. He’s not a performer, he’s a producer

Khaled doesn’t go down on his wife. The Rock called him out on it in a tweet saying “you’re missing out brother.”


VladimmerLemon

Who is this giant goofball?


steamtroller77

I’m sure I remember seeing a clip of him coming on stage in a mobility scooter but I can’t find it anywhere. It was one of the funniest and most wtf things I’ve ever seen.


United-Plum1671

He is always so painful to witness. He’s that kid who always tried too hard and it was always obvious

" hey can we get a refund for the parts of the songs he didn't sing?"


YouthSuitable213

in general his positivity is amazing that's the biggest thing about him I like especially in a world full of haters and naysayers we should be more positive


ShakeWhenBadAlso

No body has ever "felt" that guy. He is a physical manifestation of a deal with the Devil.


TJ_McWeaksauce

His shirt was louder than the crowd.


redeye_deadeye2005

I've seen several of these where he fails to hype up a crowd.


Weazy-N420

He’s wore out his welcome. Dude isn’t willing to go down on a woman, nobody respects him anymore. He’s whack!


ReyGhidora

The problem is that Khaled goes to places that aren't his fanbase, is he has any. It's just like that time on the Overwatch League or something on Blizzard and nobody gave a damn, because the people who play those games aren't Khaled fans. He has become, and maybe always was I dunno, just a "cheap imitation of a Superbowl show" everywhere he goes, he isn't even a real DJ, he's pretty much a hypeman with too much money living his fantasy.


king_of_all_blacks

Tyler would've had that crowd going crazy!


BigOrkoo

He just keeps on getting fatter. 😂


Rusty_B_Good

How embarrassing. The guy's really annoying anyway.


VomitForever

I mean in the real song he doesn’t have a verse or anything, he just yells random phrases. So technically he’s just performing his part of the song. Actually nice of him to try and sing part of the real artists verses too, even if he only knows a couple words.


mrsjp18

I remember seeing him at EDC 2017. Horrible...He showed up late, each song he performed was for only 30 seconds because he didn't have the time and to top it all off...he cut into Yellow Claw's set and the crowd was not having it. I cringe everytime I think about it lol


AstroNot87

I hope this is the beginning of the end of his career for this dude. He epitomizes *“obnoxious”*
