Khaled

President / Producer

For a guy most people think doesn’t do anything but yell on records, Khaled gets a heck of lot done. Billed as a DJ and recording artist, Khaled is actually a producer in the truest sense of the word. Who else can get Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jay-Z and Justin Bieber to guest on their tracks? His trademark bluster fronts a ferocious hustle that has struck deals with T-Mobile, Snapchat, Belaire, (RED) and Apple Music, earned a spot on Fox singing competition “The Four” and moved more than 18 million singles. Ever resourceful, he even made a brand out of son Asad, who at barely 2 has 2 million Instagram followers and had his birth streamed on Snapchat. In September, Khaled played at a fundraiser by L.A. mayor Eric Garcetti to raise money for state parties in advance of the midterms.
