All DJ Khaled does is win. After dropping 12 albums with another one on the way, the veteran artist DJ has finally received a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.
On Monday, April 11, the "POPSTAR" artist arrived in Hollywood with his family and his entourage of famous friends to participate in his induction ceremony for the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. Khaled rocked a bright orange suit while his children and spouse Nicole Tuck also stood-out in extravagant colors. Khaled also invited a small circle of his closest confidants in the music industry including Fat Joe, Diddy and JAY-Z.
"The room can be pitch dark, and when I walk in it's bright. When it's dark, I'm the light. And when it's light, I'm a brighter light," DJ Khaled says. https://t.co/7sQKmJQnZ5 pic.twitter.com/SFgiZv0owi

"God put me on this earth to be a light," Khaled said during his acceptance speech. "The room can be pitch dark, and when I walk in it's bright. When it's dark, I'm the light. And when it's light, I'm a brighter light."
"JAY-Z, Puff Daddy and Joe Crack... those like people I looked up to as... I said, when I seen them do it, I knew I can do it," Khaled continued. "And I knew that's what they were doing it for. They were breaking the doors early. If you go back and watch their work, they were breaking these doors down for brothers and sisters like us to do what we're doing. That's why I always scream 'keep going' and 'we da best,' because it's not just me. It's we."
