DJ Khaled is gearing up to drop his 14th studio album, Aalam of God. The American producer and hitmaker made the big announcement on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.
To build anticipation, Khaled shared an action-packed, seven-minute cinematic trailer on Instagram. Directed by Eif Rivera, the high-energy clip follows Khaled as he fights to protect his highly coveted album files, especially since the upcoming project features two tracks from Drake.
The trailer thrusts Khaled into the middle of a high-stakes heist, where masked attackers attempt to steal a briefcase containing his unreleased music. Performing his own stunts, he makes a dramatic escape while defending his work.

Mark Wahlberg plays the mastermind behind the heist, frustrated by his team’s failure. “Did you get it?” he demands. “This guy’s got two Drake songs on there. What if there’s another 100-bar verse from Jay-Z, and that leaks to the f—king streets?”
Thinking he’s in the clear, Khaled meets up with Anthony Ramos, only to be betrayed. In a tense scene at a Jamaican restaurant, Ramos, playing a character named Tone, turns on him, holding him at gunpoint and demanding the album. But Khaled remains unshaken. “Look how far we came, and you worried about what they saying?” he tells Tone. “You know our motto—‘Win with us or watch us win.’” Before walking away, he delivers one last message: “One more thing, Tone—you a piece of s—t!”
The trailer ends with a preview of an unreleased track, possibly titled God Is on Our Side. Just before boarding a private jet, Khaled teases a major collaboration, instructing his team, “Send Rihanna the record.”

Confirming Drake’s involvement, Khaled doubled down in the teaser’s caption: “DRAKE’S BACK TO WORK… SO AM I! THIS THE ONE WITH ✌????DRAKES.” He also hinted at Rihanna’s potential feature, tagging Ayo Juan and adding, “Matter of fact… send that record over to @badgalriri.”
Setting the record straight, Khaled clarified that while Aalam of God is significant, it’s not his final album. “This is not my last album—this is my Black album,” the 49-year-old producer declared.
While Aalam of God is slated for release in 2025, the official drop date remains under wraps.
