Have You Heard the DJ Khaled Song with Future and Rick Ross? Well, Now There's ... Another One

The song is called "I Ride" and it's not a very big departure from other DJ Khaled songs, but that doesn't mean it's bad.

Did you know that DJ Khaled has put out eight studio albums? I know that seems like a lot, so I went back to check, and yup. Eight of them things. Now, that may not seem impressive, but when you narrow the scale you see that he's put out four albums in the last five years, which is some Rick Ross-level work ethic. Or not, seeing as how DJ Khaled is minimally involved in the making of a DJ Khaled album, allowing the contributors to shine/do the heavy lifting while he shouts just enough to remind you whose song it is.

When you make eight albums where you contribute the absolute least to the final product, you're undoubtably going to run into some overlaps. I mean, how many times can you put Future and Rick Ross on the same song? It's almost impossible to avoid it, which is why this is the second or third time it's happened. This time, on "I Ride," Future and Ross are joined by Boosie Badazz and Jeezy, who add enough impact to the song that you may accidentally end up breaking something while listening to it. DJ Khaled's eighth studio album will be called I Changed A Lot, and obviously isn't about how he's expanded his collaborators circle.
