DJ Khaled Announces New LP With Song ‘Supposed To Be Loved’

DJ Khaled has us all feeling "the best" this Friday (Aug. 11) as the Flordia native dropped a new single featuring "Supposed To Be Loved" with Lil Baby, Future, and Lil Uzi Vert. The Grammy-winning producer also released the trailer for his upcoming album Til Next Time. The promo features DJ Khaled's sons Asahd and Aalam Tuck Khaled and his wife Nicole Tuck Khaled. The trailer shows the producer's everyday life enjoying the beach and the basketball court.

While the title seemingly suggests the producer will leave the booth for good, he assured fans that it's not a "goodbye."

"The day I decide to walk away from the game you’re gonna know that very moment that you were witnessing the greatest to ever do it," he wrote alongside the trailer. "This ain’t goodbye…it’s TIL NEXT TIME. Next chapter. Next blessing. Next level. Onward. This is my biggest album. I feel it. The recording process has been UNBELIEVABLE and I can't wait to share it with the world. And remember…I’ll always be here if you need me…I’m only a phone call away."

This upcoming album will mark the Grammy winner's 14th studio album. He partnered with Def Jam earlier this year and it will also be a milestone project as it will be his first coinciding with his own We The Best Music Group and the label.

"This new chapter marks a special time for me," said Khaled in statement in February per Billboard. "The energy at this point in my career is at an all-time high, and I’m grateful to Sir Lucian Grainge for allowing me to join his empire at this stage in my journey. Together, we will achieve even greater heights and take it to the next level. I feel blessed and so inspired with renewed energy. I’m excited to not only partner but to come back home to Def Jam."

DJ Khaled has not announced a release date for Til Next Time.

Hip-Hop has been fighting to get a No. 1 hit single on the Billboard Hot 100 all year. We have not yet topped the charts this year - which is 50th anniversary of the genre. But that doesn't mean that there have not been great songs this year.

Hip-Hop has had several features from Ice Spice, Nicki Minaj, J. Cole, this year. Ice Spice released her debut EP Like..? in January. It had one feature from fellow Bronx emcee Lil Tjay on "Gangsta Boo." The six-track EP also contained "Princess Diana," "Bikini Bottom," "In Ha Mood," "Actin a Smoochie," and her breakout hit "Munch (Feelin' U)." Nicki Minaj also hopped on "Princess Diana" with Ice Spice in April. The two linked up again to release "Barbie World" together in June for the Barbie film soundtrack.

As for Nicki, her only solo song of the year is "Red Ruby Da Sleeze" but she has stayed in the studio. Besides her feature on "Princess Diana," she has also hopped on Kim Petras' "Alone," Sexyy Red's "Poundtown Remix," YoungBoy Never Broke Again's "WTF," and Machel Montano and Destra's "Shake The Place."

The latest has been her feature on Uzi's "Endless Fashion," and Young Thug's "Money" with the late Juice WRLD.

J. Cole has since released "Procrastination (Broke)" and has hopped on Summer Walker's "To Summer From Cole (audio hug)" from her Clear 2: Soft Life EP as well as Lil Durk's "All My Life."

R&B, however, has had a better chart record this year as SZA's SOS hit "Kill Bill" stayed on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart for 16 weeks. It beat Mary J. Blige's "Be Without You" as the longest-running No. 1 single by a solo female artist prior to SZA's "Kill Bill."
