(CL Media) DJ Khaled shares an epic new single and action-packed music video entitled "One of Them" [with Future & Lil Baby] out now via We The Best/REPUBLIC. The blockbuster banger just sets the stage for the arrival of his mega-anticipated 13th studio album and first full-length LP in four years, Aalam of God out July 17, 2026. Pre-order/Pre-save HERE. The last time the hip-hop icon dropped a project was 2022's global phenomenon GOD DID, which scored his fourth #1 bow on the Billboard 200.
Yesterday, Complex debuted the official trailer for "One of Them." With its James Bond-inspired high-octane thrills, the clip depicts Khaled like you've never seen him before-dressed dapper to the nines and ready to throw down. Given these shocking surprises, the teaser immediately ignited social media, generating nearly a million views across platforms and widespread chatter as a trending topic.
This frenzy only upped the anticipation for more... As for the track itself, it pops off at a crossroads between Future's uncanny groundbreaking trap, Lil Baby's incisive rhyme-play, and Khaled's expansive and ever-evolving vision. An eerie piano loop winds tightly around the beat, bringing tension to the track. The lyrical crossfire finds both Future and Lil Baby in top form against an expertly crafted soundscape.
The big screen-ready video projects this energy on-screen. It plays out like a Miami-set John Wick. You've got to see it to believe it though. Of course, Khaled caps it all off with a fitting catchphrase aimed squarely at his adversaries, "You played yourself."
Not to mention, he uploaded the cover of Aalam of God on Instagram starring his son Aalam in a hot tub-as a callback to Asahd's debut on the artwork of 2017's Grateful. The post exploded creating even more excitement for the 'album of the Summer'.
Last Fall, Khaled laid the groundwork for this era with "You Remind Me" [with Vybz Kartel, Buju Banton, Mavado, Bounty Killer, Rorystonelove, & Kaylan Arnold] and "Brother" [with Post Malone & YoungBoy Never Broke Again]. The latter has already amassed more than 7.8 million Spotify streams alone.
Khaled has been quietly plotting his next move and assembling what promises to be the definitive album of his career so far with Aalam of God.
