DJ Khaled Lying About Being Able To Make Beats

[Double Burger With Cheese]

Those producers are household names because they are produced multiple huge records. Khaled being a household has little to do with production. Khaled has never been a go to producer. Nobody who isn't a student of Hip Hop could even name a song he produced. Khaled is a household name because his vocals are all over the big songs from his albums. He's great at putting together great collaborations.

I just think it’s odd we have no evidence of him making beats, especially being the self promoter he is. And the fact that, you got access to all these artist, and you can make beats, and used to, but now all of a sudden you don’t produce anything except the music on your album? That doesn’t make much sense at all. Like I said, I know I could be wrong. But my spider sense tingling on this shyt. I’d just be lying if I said I fully trusted that he can make beats.

And again, he doesn't have this huge catalog of beats, so what is there to question. He isn't out here saying he is the greatest producer, but he has made beats and knows how to fully produce songs. He's made beats for other artists, but the only artist I could see Khaled benefiting with what he brings to the table is someone like a Nas. And the reason I say Nas is because Nas consistently has crazy songs on Khaled albums. Some of them should have been on a Nas album. I mean, Khaled managed to give us what is arguably the best Nas/Scarface collaboration with "Hip Hop" over a J.U.S.T.I.C.E League beat with Premo on the scratches. There's "Victory", which is a crazy Nas/John Legend collaboration. "Nas Album Done" was arguably better than any song on Nasir.

I'm sure Streetrunner ghost produced for Khaled.
Khaled was a co-producer on Long Time Comin/Lord You know w/ DJ Nasty



(Capo's acting in this video is exceptional)

Cam and Jaheim - Best of Both Hoods would've been a classic by the way.

Street runner isn't a ghost producer for Khaled. He's a credited producer on Khaled's albums and other projects they worked on.

Im sorry, I don’t care what nikkas in this thread trying to tell me...it’s no visual evidence of Khaled ever making a beat. Not even touching one piece of equipment. Until i see him in action, this nikka can’t make beats

if those beats on that 2nd TS album credited to Khaled aren't StreetRunner beats I'd be very surprised.

He doesn't make beats. He's not sampling, programming drums, etc. He has a team of actual beat makers around him and gets credit for "production." In order to make professional quality beats you have to put a lot of time in so I'm not buying he spent years learning the craft, did a few beats for artists, then stopped. You don't stop making beats when you do music professionally.

He basically admitted that in the Hot 97 video so I don't get what people are arguing about. All he had to say was "I laid down the drums, I looped the sample." He said "I have a team and I make the vibe/produce." They submit beats they made and he tells them what to change, calls in musicians, and sits down with the engineer to get it to sound how he wants.

StreetRunner has a whole credit on that album. It wouldn't make sense for him to just ghostproduce two songs for Khaled and then get credits on another song on the same album.

This doesn't make sense at all. You don't need years of experience to make professionally sounding beats. Its not even on the producers in most cases to make it sound professional. Ya'll speculate and assume with absolutely no proof whatsoever and that's why there's an argument.

And yes, people have a streak and then stop. John Legend is on record talking about a point at which Kanye stopped making beats and became more of a traditional producer. Chad of The Neptunes stopped making beats.

You think making a beat is harder than producing a hit like what Khaled and Diddy does? I’m not comprehending your logic

there was an OG version with Juelz sampling Sam Cooke....when Cam said "you're gonna watch Santana", Juelz was supposed to go in

Cam shouted out Khaled and Florida y'all with me? lmao

I think DJ Khaled can’t make a beat. The fukk? The premise of the thread is literally in the title

Prove that he makes beats.

We've seen Ye make beats even after he fell back. Beat makers don't stop.

 

[Dzali OG]

I'm pretty sure he knows how to make a beat, but he's more in the CEO position now...I assume. Like a CEO may know how to flip the burgers but hasn't done it in years. They now hire people to flip them.

It's a valid question tho, cause if he was producing these songs there should be a signature sound and we'd see or hear about his actual beats more.

Why? Making a beat is easy
