DJ Khaled
DJ Khaled seemingly gets a pass everytime he pulls together some of the biggest acts in hip-hop for a new track. The Palestinian DJ is known for shouting out in his adlibs, “Who da best? We N—-!” Speaking on his use of the word he previously told VIBE, “I’m a n—a. If somebody ever took that in an arrogant — if someone thinks it in another way, they dumb. … I grew up like that. It’s slang. … What makes me mad, ’cause when I grew up, n—as was calling me sand n—a. Now, that’s ignorant, because there’s only one way to say it. You can’t say, ‘Yo what up my sand n—a?’ That’s not the way we grew up in the streets. When I say ‘What up my n—a,’ I say that to Green Lantern all the time. ‘What up my nig?’ That’s just me greeting you with love, but if somebody takes it another way, they dumb, man.”
