This new Track will be on his upcoming album, which will be executively produced by his firstborn, Asahd Khaled.
On Wednesday, both men were seen in the studio vibing as they sparked speculations that Skillibeng had new music coming. DJ Khaled is not an artist, and he has long given up being a DJ. However, his role as a producer has seen him working with artists like Nicki Minaj, Drake, Rihanna, Justin Bieber, and many others and his accomplishments are many, with him even receiving respect from the likes of Kanye West.
Now, Skillibeng is next on the list as his career grows in the United States. DJ Khaled, who has an unending love affair with Jamaica and all things Jamaican, was seen hosting the “Crocodile Teeth” artiste at his home.
In an Instagram post, Khaled, Skillibeng and others were spotted enjoying Jamaican cuisine before getting to work at what appeared to be Khaled’s home/studio in Miami. Khaled’s chef is seen in one video telling Skillibeng that a Jamaican meal was prepared for him and his team to enjoy. “a taste of home” when he presented the spread that included escovitch snapper, patties, jerked chicken, oxtail, and curried goat, and even lobster with jamaican patty beef.
Very little was revealed in the Instagram posts about the St Thomas native’s studio session with the American record producer. However, DJ Khaled did say in his captions that “SKILLI DID!!!!!! @badevryday 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 Album mode, it’s special!”.
“The executive producer @asahdkhaled Wit the Great SKILLIBENG 🇯🇲🆙,” he wrote in another share.
“SKILLI GOING CRAZY IN HERE! 🤯 🔥 🆙 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲” he added in another post.
Skillibeng has Also shared about the link-up, DJ Khaled ensured that everyone knew he was in album mode as he often shares without caption.
In the meantime, Skillibeng is set to release his next studio album in the summer. He is scheduled to continue touring and performing for Mr. Universe in June.
Skillibeng is also set to release his sophomore album sometime in June, which will consist of “big features,” according to senior vice-president of A&R at RCA Records, Richard ‘Skane Dolla’ Ford.
Under RCA, Skilli followed up with his five-track Mr. Universe EP, which was released earlier this month. It included the new single, Whap Whap featuring F.S.
A remix of that single, featuring Fivo Foreign and French Montana, will be released on June 3.
DJ Khaled has adopted Jamaica and vice versa as his second national, and is often proclaimed to be a “Yard Man” on Instagram.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the phrase “Yard man,” it means you’re from Jamaica or of Jamaican descent.
Khaled often credits Jamaican music culture for giving him his first big break in music when he was a struggling DJ in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
By now, Khaled has become like a distant cousin to Jamaicans, as he has, on several occasions, teamed up with some of the Reggae and Dancehall greats. He even adopted the catchphrase, “yaad man ting”
His 12th studio album, Khaled with the Reggae banger Where You Come From, had featured Buju Banton, Capleton, and Bounty Killer.
