DJ Khaled respects Jay-Z for collaborating with him to create the highest quality music products!

 

DJ Khaled, famed for his opulent lifestyle and blockbuster collaborations, is more than just a hitmaker—he’s a humble soul with a penchant for gratitude, especially towards his mentors and friends. One prominent figure on his gratitude list is none other than Jay-Z, a frequent collaborator featured in several of DJ Khaled’s chart-toppers, including the recent sensation “God Did” with Lil Wayne and Rick Ross.

In a recent tête-à-tête with Shannon Sharpe on Club Shay Shay, DJ Khaled spilled the beans on his unfiltered appreciation for Jay-Z. Apparently, Khaled floods Jay-Z’s inbox with a whopping 100 texts a month, expressing gratitude for the manifold ways Jay-Z has impacted his life. Describing Jay-Z as a big brother—generous, humble, and consistently responsive with love and respect—Khaled shared the backstory of their Grammy-nominated Һit, “God Did.”

“I had this vision of bringing Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and Rick Ross together on a track. So, I shot the beаt over to Jay-Z, and bam! He loved it and dropped his verse in one seamless take. Then, he passed the baton to Lil Wayne and Rick Ross, who swiftly laid down their verses. Witnessing that chemistry and trust among artists was like catching lightning in a bottle. I felt blessed to be part of such a historic collaboration.”

 

But the saga doesn’t end there—DJ Khaled also expressed his gratitude for Jay-Z’s performance at the Grammy Awards.

“Sharing the stage with Jay-Z, the undisputed greatest rapper of all time, was a dream realized. I was jittery before the performance, but Jay-Z, my mentor and confidant, steadied my nerves and boosted my confidence. His post-performance pep talk left me feeling honored and inspired.”

 

DJ Khaled’s gratitude echoes far and wide, extending beyond himself. Both Lil Wayne and Rick Ross joined the chorus of praise for Jay-Z’s influence and camaraderie. Lil Wayne, hailing Jay-Z as his idol, expressed deep honor in collaborating. Rick Ross, dubbing Jay-Z as his brother, voiced gratitude for the unwavering support and guidance.

 

In the grand symphony of hip-hop, DJ Khaled stands not just as a maestro but as a man who lives by his motto: ‘We the best!’”
