DJ Khaled's 'Major Key' album will feature Drake, Jay Z, every other rapper


Before the iconic Snapchat account and the opening stint for Beyonce, DJ Khaled was best known for yelling his name over insane posse cuts featuring a bunch of famous rappers.

Like so:

His new album, titled (what else?) Major Key, promises a similarly stacked guest list including Drake, Future and Rick Ross, he told EW in an interview.

"Lil Wayne, Big Sean, Chris Brown, August Alsina, Travis Scott — the list goes on," he said.

Major Key is Khaled's first record since signing Jay Z as his manager (maybe that explains why he's currently traveling the U.S. opening for the Formation tour?), and promises that two Jay verses will also end up on the album.

As for Bey herself, Khaled famously told the New York Times Magazine that he's scared of talking to her while they tour together. But can he eventually collect himself enough to join her in the studio? “I’m just getting closer and closer, but at the same time I’m scared to even ask her," he said. "I don’t know how to maneuver this."

Don't consider us surprised if all Khaled's talk about being scared of Beyonce ends up being a long promo cycle, that ends with her appearance on his album. Don't ever play yourself!
