“My brother here said, ‘We Takin’ Over’ his favorite video,” Khaled said in a clip posted to social media.
Chalamet, an avid rap fan, responded: “No. 1 video of all-time! I was watching … T.I. in the trap!”
It was music to Khaled’s ears as the We the Best mogul had a laugh while co-signing the actor’s take. “That’s right,” he repeated.
“We Takin’ Over” arrived in March 2007 and served as Khaled’s lead single for his We the Best album. The anthem is a loaded posse cut featuring Akon, T.I., Rick Ross, Birdman, Lil Wayne and Fat Joe.
Shot in Miami, the visual finds Khaled on the run and kidnapped by an “evil assailant.” The star-studded clip features cameos from T-Pain, Bun B, Pitbull, Curren$y and more. Capped off by a standout verse from Lil Wayne, “We Takin’ Over” peaked at No. 28 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Khaled we joined by his wife and son Asahd at Madison Square Garden, as he was seated next to New York Knicks diehard fan and his close friend, Fat Joe. Khaled came under fire on social media as some viewers called him out for being on his phone too much throughout the game.
The Knicks ended up dropping game three 115-111 to the Spurs, who earned their first win of the series. Game four is slated for Wednesday night (June 10) at MSG.
