Khaid, known for his track “Anabella,” expressed his belief that he was destined for greatness from the outset. He emphasized that the menial jobs he engaged in were merely a part of the larger process.
He stated, “I view everything as part of a greater plan. During the time I worked as a car mechanic, I was aware that it was simply a phase programmed for me to experience.
I knew it was essential for me to be there during that time, but I also knew it was not my permanent destination.

I recognized that it was necessary for me to undergo that process, either because it was preparing me for something in the future or because it was meant to happen at that particular time.”
Khaid’s perspective was that he fully embraced and connected with the process during those times until he reached the point where he believed he was destined to be.
