DJ Khaled can add a new gig to his résumé. Apple Music named the music mogul as its first artist-in-residence.
Khaled celebrated his Apple residency via Instagram, sharing a promotional video of himself at work.
“Bless up @applemusic for making me the very first artist-in-residence ever for @applemusic,” he wrote in the caption. “This means imma taking over the biggest playlists on the platform every month!”
He added, “Also the goal is to break new artists in the process. All record labels and artists, hit me up. This month, we gon start with Office DJ and then I might hit y’all wit a Gymflow playlist vibe next month. #WETHEBEST Go check out office dj play list now this what I’m listing to in my office right now .”

Congrats to Dj Gas Station Clerk
Is Tyler the Creator gonna be featured in his playlists?
Don’t other artist have radio shows and playlists?!?! This seems ridiculously stupid and pointless. Plus, after hearing that last album… do I really want him curating my playlist?
Guess Apple doesn’t want actual customers lol
I’m going to get a WE THE BEST trampstamp tattoo now
How is he an artist in any way? Also when is the last time he broke a new artist? All his albums are the same 20 people plus whoever is popular at that moment. He wasn’t even showing Vado or Ace Hood any love and he signed them!
The only man who has been working out for 4 years and hasn’t lost any weight at all lol. Even The Scale hide from him.
You can clearly see that he’s the only one who was eating on his Label lol…Now Apple wants to hire this guy….smh
Culture vulture is such an overused term in hip hop but damn hits the nail on the head with this guy. At the end of the day I can see him putting on better fitting clothes and losing that fake east coast accent and nestling in with his family on the couch eating Doritos
Man, Shut up
Yeah he should got that surgery like his butt buddy Officer Ricky
A massive L for Apple
“ARTIST”
I BLAME BLACKS FOR ALLOWING THIS CLOWN TO SWEEP IN AND STEAL OUR MUSIC, OUR CULTURE AND OUR INFLUENCE. STOP DOING SONGS WITH THIS FAT CLOWN ALREADY. HE HAS NO LOVE FOR OUR CULTURE, HE JUST LOOKS AT IT AS A CASH GRAB. THERES NO ARTISTRY OR UNIQUENESS IN HIS MUSIC. ITS ALL BLAND, FORMULAIC AND SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS SEQUENCED BY OLD WHITE MEN FOLLOWING ALGORITHMS IN THEIR OFFICE.
