DJ Khaled & NBA YoungBoy DESHAWN
"Love you brother your my diamond [three heart emojis]," the "All The Way Up" hitmaker penned under his collaborator's post. "My brother [heart emoji," he said under the outlet's repost.
Both have gone onto become major mainstream titans, especially when the 2000s came around. They have countless songs together such as "We Takin Over," "Sunshine," "Don't Ever Play Yourself," "Billy Ocean," and more.
In other news revolving around Khaled, he and NBA YoungBoy put out a surprise joint mixtape last Tuesday, August 12. Titled DESHAWN, --YB's government name-- it features 13 songs and a cut with another Louisiana native, Kevin Gates.
It was a quick turnaround especially for the rapper as he just dropped Make America Slime Again on July 25. Unfortunately, the heavy dosage of YB led to a disappointing first week of sales. It only moved 11,000 units, good enough for the 135th spot on the Hot 200.
