Deejay Khalil is an American DJ from New York City and the current host of The Not DJ Khaled Show on iHeart Radio. As a kid growing up on Staten Island, he used a Home Alone 2 TalkBoy to record mixtapes from the radio, capturing songs by hip-hop artists who would later appear on Shade 45 SiriusXM, as well as members of Wu-Tang Clan—all of whom he eventually collaborated with. Nowadays, Deejay Khalil is best recognized for his versatility, sense of humor, and all things carny.
