2:51
They never said it was easy to win. No, no, no.
2:53
We're going to go through some bumps.
2:55
There's going to be some peaks and valleys.

8:55
It's like basically a disclaimer.
8:57
That's what I'm trying to show you like why I'm going to eat something that make me look like that.
9:02
Like let's keep it honest with each other.
9:04
For the YouTube views, I think. That's crazy. Make the kids laugh. Oh my god.
9:07
When you get to this one, this one's going to finish you. It's not. That's the whole thing.
9:12
People say that to me but no, I've never met a wing I couldn't [ __ ] do it my brother.
9:17
Throw it in a pretzel hole. I'm full, too.
9:19
I got to take it easy, too. All right.
9:22
The DJ Khaled brand it tells a clear story. Yeah. We're champions. All I do is win.
9:29
But anyone who's successful will tell you that that climb to the top comes with a fair share of bumps along the way.
9:34
Tell me about a time in DJ Khaled's life where he caught an L. An L? Never in my life.
9:41
It's had to have happened at least once.
9:45
On everything, never catch an L.
9:47
You never like missed a highway exit or something? or nothing.
9:50
I never That's one thing I make sure I don't.
9:53
And I'm not saying if you do that you're not a winner.
9:57
You know what I'm saying?
9:58
Cuz sometimes you got to take a fall to win bigger.
9:59
Have I experienced roadblocks, road bumps, um shields of people trying to stop the win? Of course.
10:08
The only difference with me is I'll whip the [ __ ] door off, rip it off its hinges and put the hinges in the [ __ ] boy's hands. Like that.
10:16
And then I go through and do what I got to do.
10:20
I never expect nobody to open the door to let me just go through.
10:22
Now, in time after respect, they open the door.
10:29
You know what I'm saying? And that's cool.
10:30
But then after you open the door, you got to see who's behind the door.
10:34
Cuz that's when they when it becomes a different type of hate.
10:38
Well, I was with you for a while. What does that mean?
10:42
You break through the door, you break through the ceiling. You rip the door off.
10:46
The one that's trying to stop you. Get through that. the door off.
10:48
Take the hinges, cuz you don't want them to put the door back on.
10:53
Take the hinges and put the hinges in the [ __ ] boy's hands.
10:56
But then if you give them the hinges, couldn't that now the power is in the [ __ ] boy's hands?
10:59
Like they could put those hinges back on the frame.
11:01
It's called congratulations, you played yourself. You got the hinges now. I ripped it off.
11:05
What you think I wasn't getting through?
11:08

13:29
You know what I'm saying?

Out of Out of touch, everything, and um they play themselves all day.
13:34
What they should do is put somebody that really cares about the game and that knows what's going on beside the dinosaur cuz the dinosaur might be the boss. But guess what?
13:46
Every real boss is going to have an amazing team to make the boss look good.
13:52
That's why he put them in power to work.
13:56
But sometimes dinosaurs want to take full control.
13:59
Dinosaurs always want to take full control. Well, guess what? He played himself.
