What are you confused about?

You do a song for khaled and he does all the marketeting and promotion for it?

It’s win/win for artist to collab with Khaled

Y’all have asking this question for over a decade atp
I'm looking at it like, why would I even need Khaled? This could be a lead single for Lil Baby's new album. Why would I give it to Khaled when it could possibly push my album numbers up via the Drake feature?

And don't let it be a hit... I'd slide Khaled one of these B side joints and keep the heat for me.

What difference does it make? You work with khaled and he does all the promotion. You win

Who has ever been hurt by giving working with khaled? Your hypothetical doesn’t mirror real life.

Brehs over here citing jews and conspiracies as to why dj Khaled is an ACTUAL stimulus package because it's the easiest bag and promo and hype you can have. Imagine being lil baby and you mail a verse, show up for a 3 hour video shoot and get a hit and Khaled does all the promo and hype, and promotes it like the greatest shyt of all time. Oh and lil Durk or Drake is also on the track.

How is this confusing :heh:. It's the same people that don't like today's music in the first place complaining about Khaled. Griselda is right there waiting for your plays.

Facts

Doing a verse for Khaled is like doing a feature for another star artist

I legit wonder how Khaled gets these features and collabs...

Like how do you convince Nas and Jay to do a song together and put it on YOUR album and not either of theirs?

I get the feeling Khaled was involved in multi level marketing schemes before he went into music and knows a thing or two about NLP. If you watch him talk, he says things that sound "profound" but it's really just kinda aggrandizing bullshyt. Combine that with him being a huge ass kisser - he probably goes in there and hypes the artists up with a bunch of "We are the vision of the new era" mumbo jumbo and that's how he does it.

Khaled’s albums are a snapshot in time of the whose whos of whatever year they drop. A big pop album.

U listen to the singles that usually turn out to be hits and maybe find a cool b-side or posse cut or interesting random feature pairing scrap it and keep it pushing to the next one.

Khaled sends them a beat and they record on it probably a song they normally wouldn’t make.

This is nothing to these guys rap is second nature to them.

It’s a guaranteed hit.

If I was Jay or Nas, I wouldn’t have wanted that song on my album either… the real clout is the fact that Khaled got them to do the video
