DJ Khaled Announces New Album ‘Aalam of God' With Film Trailer Starring Mark Wahlberg and Anthony Ramos
DJ Khaled has announced his fourteenth album 'Aalam of God,' which is slated for release in 2025 via We the Best/Republic Records. In typical widescreen fashion, Khaled revealed the news of the album with a seven-minute movie album trailer co-starring Mark Wahlberg and Anthony Ramos. In it, Khaled is on the run with Ramos in possession of the album, which he says includes two Drake songs. Over FaceTime, Wahlberg commands his henchmen to track him down to get the album and it turns out Ramos is in on the plot to steal the record — up until the tables turn and Khaled escapes unscathed.

Khaled compared 'Aalam of God' to Jay-Z's 'The Black Album,' which was touted as the rapper's retirement record in 2003, only with a caveat. 'This is not my last album, it's my Black album,' shared Khaled in a statement. It's named after his five-year-old son Aalam, and he explained the meaning in a Facebook post in December. ''Aalam of God' translates to 'the world of God' in Arabic, essentially referring to the entire universe or the realm of existence considered as being under God's dominion and control; 'Aalam' simply means 'world' or 'universe' in Arabic.' News of Khaled's fourteenth album has been circulating for years. 'Aalam of God' was initially titled 'Til Next Time,' which Khaled announced with a trailer in Aug. 2023. The following day, he released 'Supposed to Be Loved,' a single featuring Lil Baby, Future and Lil Uzi Vert that prominently sampled Michael Jackson's 'P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing).' The music mogul last released 'God Did' in 2022, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and securing five Grammy nominations. Watch the trailer for 'Aalam of God' here.

Drake said 'No Friends in the Industry,' he meant it—Rapper shuts down DJ Khaled's feature claims
DJ Khaled's grand announcement for his 14th studio album, Aalam of God , has vanished from the internet after Drake shut down claims of being featured on two tracks. The We The Best mogul had dropped a cinematic seven-minute trailer starring Mark Wahlberg and Anthony Ramos, hyping up his latest project and tagging Drake in the caption. 'FYI… DRAKE'S BACK TO WORK… SO AM I! THIS THE ONE WITH [2] DRAKES!' he wrote. However, Drake swiftly dismissed the claim, leaving a now-viral comment: 'Must be @drakebell,' referencing the former Nickelodeon star from Drake & Josh . YIKES… Drake does NOT approve the 2 records for DJ Khaled's album. Khaled has now deleted his entire album announcement/7 min trailer. 😭😭😭😭 — King Jared (@certifiedjared) Khaled's post, which originally hinted at the rapper's involvement, was quickly deleted after the response, sparking speculation across social media. Fans were quick to react, with many praising Drake's newfound energy. Drake Bell Ft DJ Khaled *LEAK**** — Kermit (@BKid704) 'Drake in his villain era and I love it!!!!' one user tweeted. Another joked, 'No more Drake stimulus package for him,' referring to Khaled's history of using Drake collaborations to secure chart-topping hits. Some questioned what Khaled might have done to land in Drake's bad books, especially given their long history of collaborations, from 'I'm On One' to 'Popstar.' No more Drake stimulus package for him — iamdchairman (@tobijubril_) Drake's response has only fueled speculation that his relationship with Khaled may have soured, particularly after the rapper's recent fallout with Kendrick Lamar. when drake said no friends in the industry he really meant it he cut ties with kanye kendrick abel future metro rick ross and dj khaled — blonded (@Khalednxtdoor) Many fans pointed out that Khaled remained silent during Drake's highly publicized feud, possibly leading to a rift. 'After everything that's happened, the opps now want Drake's help. Nah, stay on that side,' a user tweeted, while another added, 'Khaled shows everyone love. Drake making people choose sides is childish.' After everything that's happened, The opps now wants Drake's help, nah nigga stay on that side now 😂 — BOSS DADDY (@maduchi19) Drake upset that DJ Khaled didn't speak during the beef. Bro that man didn't even speak up for his own country — King Wow (@wowthatshiphop) Khaled has a long-standing tradition of hyping up his albums with major collaborations, and this isn't the first time he's teased Drake's involvement. During Drake's It's All a Blur Tour in September 2023, he famously held up a massive sign that read, 'I have 2 Drake songs on my new album—coming 2024.' The two last worked together in 2022 on 'Staying Alive' from Khaled's God Did . With Khaled now wiping his entire album announcement, it's unclear whether the Drake features were real or if plans changed behind the scenes. Meanwhile, Drake is focused on his Anita Max Win Tour , currently making stops in Australia and New Zealand.
