DJ Khaled’s ‘God Did’ arrives with Drake, Kanye West, Eminem, Jay-Z and more

DJ Khaled‘s 13th studio album, ‘God Did’, has arrived. The follow-up to last year’s ‘Khaled Khaled’ is a predictably star-studded affair that features a veritable who’s who providing guest appearances.

On the remix, Eminem delivers a characteristically rapid-fire verse that seems him reflect on struggling to maintain his faith: “Please let this hate make me stronger, for they turned on me like a zombie / It’s like I’m being strangled unconscious, when temptation is almost like Satan is baiting you.”

Khaled previewed ‘God Did’ earlier this month with its sole single: ‘Staying Alive’, a Drake and Lil-Baby assisted song that interpolates Bee Gees‘ 1977 song ‘Stayin’ Alive’. The Gibb brothers are credited as co-writers on the album as a result.

‘Khaled Khaled’, the DJ’s previous album, arrived in April of last year and featured a similarly stacked list of collaborators, including Cardi B, Post Malone, Nas, Megan Thee Stallion, Justin Bieber, Drake, 21 Savage, Lil Wayne and more.

In a three-star review, NME called the record a “slightly hollow, glitzy blockbuster of an album” but conceded that “after endless hits and three Platinum albums, you can forgive [Khaled] for refusing to change the blueprint”.

Back in April, Khaled received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, with Jay-Z, Diddy and Fat Joe among those in attendance. “We the best. It’s not just me, it’s we,” Khaled said during his acceptance speech.
