After starting out as a radio host for Miami station WEDR and DJing for Terror Squad, he's gone on to work with just about every rapper in the game, get Grammy-nominated for 'I'm On One', and release nine studio albums. Major Key, his latest LP, has already gone gold and is well on its way to going platinum. No stranger to the hustle - he moved to NYC just to get a verse from Jay-Z for 'I Got The Keys' - it was his series of Snapchat videos that catapulted to him to global fame. Snapping everything from his deodorant to getting lost on a jet ski coming back from Rick Ross's private island to the birth of his son, he's now become a motivational icon thanks to his positivity. He hasn't taken his foot off the gas when it comes to music though. You only have to look at the list of guests on his latest album - Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, 2 Chainz, Nas, Busta Rhymes and more - to see that he's a huge hip-hop player.

Her lyrics are lovelorn and simple, like much pop music, but they're more accessible than Rihanna's or Beyoncé's. They lack constant references to extreme wealth and glorifications of slightly unrealistic hedonism, instead focusing on mundane details of everyone's life like texting and social media. She says 'hi' in her latest release. EVENT PREVIEW: WILEY AT THE ROUNDHOUSE HIP HOP LEGEND: DJ KHALED 34 ISSUE 94 / 2016 HIP HOP & RNB
