The promotional cycle for DJ Khaled’s upcoming album, Aalam Of God, hit an unexpected snag this week. The producer had previously shared a trailer featuring actor Mark Wahlberg, which centered on a narrative involving the theft of the album due to the inclusion of two highly anticipated features from Drake. Given the history between the two—with the Toronto superstar appearing on both God Did and Khaled Khaled—the announcement was initially met with excitement.

However, the situation shifted rapidly when Drake took to the comments section of the post to clarify his involvement, stating, “Must be @drakebell 😶.”

While the comment could have been interpreted as a lighthearted jab, the reaction from DJ Khaled suggests otherwise. Shortly after the interaction, the producer deleted the promotional trailer entirely, fueling speculation that the collaboration may no longer be moving forward. As of now, neither party has provided further clarification regarding the status of the tracks.

Industry observers are noting the unusual nature of this public dispute, especially given that DJ Khaled has largely remained neutral regarding the various conflicts involving the rapper over the past year. Some fans suggest that the move reflects a shift in the artist’s approach to his professional circle, potentially signaling a more guarded stance on feature clearances.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the DJ Khaled project, fans of the OVO leader still have new music on the horizon. A collaborative album with PARTYNEXTDOOR, titled $$$4U, is currently scheduled for release next Friday.
