DJ Khaled Says He Worked For Free 97% Of His Life

DJ Khaled gave some advice to up-and-comers and dropped a couple of his signature keys to sucess "I’m a producer, I’m a DJ, I’m a father, I’m a friend. I’m in real estate, I’m in retail, I’m into restaurants, I’m into it all," Khaled said during the "Own Your Masters" event. "We’re supposed to use our social media because it’s really a free commercial for your business. One thing I learned about building a great business…If you do good business, you get good business back. If you do great business, you get great business back. During his conversation with Bilal and Millings, the "I'm On One" mastermind touched on the value of patience, It didn’t happen overnight for me. Quincy Jones didn’t make Thriller until he was 50 years old. Me, when I turned 40, that was when my biggest success happened. I’ve worked free 90 percent of my life, 97 percent of my life, I worked for free. And anyone can vouch for that. But I knew what it would take, and so your social media, you put out that good stuff, you get that good stuff back. That’s the key," he said.
