A young Khaled would often go along to help, which was also the only chance he had to spend quality time with them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey worked every day, seven days a week, 24 hours a day,\u201d he revealed. \u201cIf I wanted to hang out with my mother and father, I had to hang out with them hustling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After his family moved to Orlando, Khaled started DJing in his garage at the age of 13, but it wasn\u2019t easy to get support from everyone around him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wouldn\u2019t say the word \u2018black sheep of the family\u2019 \u2014 but I guess I was,\u201d he admitted. \u201cMy mother and father supported me.

Like his father years ago, he also only had $20 to get by on and slept everywhere from motels to his girlfriend\u2019s car, while making money DJing anywhere he could.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\" itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Joe Walker\"><br \/>\nby Joe Walker\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
