The discography of American disc jockey DJ Khaled consists of thirteen studio albums which contain 54 singles (including 11 as a featured artist); his videography consists of at least 58 music videos (including 6 as a featured artist). Khaled's value proposition is his extensive network of artists of whom he enlists to perform on studio recordings. While first accumulating such connections from his work as a live DJ and radio personality, he's since become known himself for numerous quips and phrases uttered on these records—many of which became Internet memes. Furthermore, his interviews, quotes, or other presentative qualities have often been described as "motivational" or "inspirational". Despite commercial success, the albums in Khaled's discography have often garnered largely mixed receptions from music critics.[1]
