August 28, 2022
DJ Khaled has shared a video of Dr. Dre and Kanye West working on the single “Use This Gospel” from his new album God Did.
On Saturday (August 27), the Miami-based super producer posted the clip for his 30.3 million Instagram followers to see. Khaled himself appeared blown away by his opportunity to work alongside the two Hip Hop juggernauts. He also included a special shout-out to Eminem who’s featured on the song.
“PRODUCED BY DR DRE MY IDOL,” he wrote in the caption. “KANYE AND EMINEM This is a BIG blessing for me, but also a BIG blessing for the world. GOD DID!! THIS A GIFT
DRE DID!! YE DID! EMINEM DID!! #FANLUV I appreciate all the love and support but I need you to understand this is dream come true!! GOD DID!! G O D DID!! @drdre THANK YOU! @kanyewest THANK YOU!! @eminem THANK YOU!!”
“Use This Gospel” is a Dr. Dre remix of Kanye’s original song of the same name. The track was initially expected to arrive on the revamp of Ye’s 2019 album
Jesus Is King, but the project never came to fruition. Speaking to Apple Music in a recent interview, Khaled explained how the whole thing came together.
“I called Kanye one day and I said, ‘ I got an idea,'” he recalled. “[…] It’s 8 in the morning, he just showed up to my house. I didn’t even know he was coming. He tells the chef to make some eggs with ketchup, and he had a drink. We go to my studio. I play him music. He plays me music. We both inspiring each other. He plays me an incredible album that he did with one of my idols, Dr. Dre. He played it from top to bottom for me. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. We had a great get together at the crib, he leaves.
After getting the proper clearance from
Dr. Dre and
Eminem, Khaled was able to move forward with the song.
God Did arrived on Friday (August 26) with additional features from Drake, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, JAY-Z, John Legend, Future, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, 21 Savage, Roddy Ricch, Quavo, Takeoff, Don Toliver, Travis Scott, Gunna, Latto, City Girls, the late Juice WRLD, Jadakiss and more.
According to
HitsDailyDouble, the project is expected to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with over 105,000 total album-equivalent units sold in its first week.
