DJ Khaled Slips Extra Collaboration with Cardi to New Album
Cardi B has become a last minute addition to DJ Khaled’s new album, just hours before its release.
The Wild Thoughts hit maker was preparing to unveil his 13-track Khaled Khaled project on Friday, but decided to slip in an extra collaboration with Cardi after the Bodak Yellow rapper sent in her verse for a song called Big Paper.
Khaled took to Instagram to share video footage of the moment he received the news, which dropped while he was in the middle of a big jewellery purchase in his backyard.
In the clip, he admits he wasn’t expecting Cardi to turn in the record on time, explaining: “I sent it to her last minute so I’m not expecting anything’. It’s all good (sic).”

However, when his associate reveals the verse had actually been completed and submitted, he shouts in celebration and leaps into his swimming pool.
He also shared an updated version of the Khaled Khaled tracklisting, which had Big Paper slotted in at number three.
The producer captioned it: “CARDI B VOCALS IS IN!! ALBUM 101% DONE (sic)!!!!”
Cardi previously worked with Khaled on his 2019 album Father of Asahd, featuring on the track Wish with 21 Savage.
The star-studded Khaled Khaled project will also include new collaborations with former rap rivals JAY-Z and Nas on Sorry Not Sorry, Lil Wayne and Jeremih on Thankful, Justin Timberlake on Just Be, and Justin Bieber and 21 Savage on Let It Go.
