DJ Khaled has shared a video of Dr. Dre and Kanye West working on the single “Use This Gospel” from his new album God Did.
On Saturday (August 27), the Miami-based super producer posted the clip for his 30.3 million Instagram followers to see. Khaled himself appeared blown away by his opportunity to work alongside the two Hip Hop juggernauts. He also included a special shout-out to Eminem who’s featured on the song.
“PRODUCED BY DR DRE MY IDOL,” he wrote in the caption. “KANYE AND EMINEM This is a BIG blessing for me, but also a BIG blessing for the world. GOD DID!! THIS A GIFT. DRE DID!! YE DID! EMINEM DID!!
“#FANLUV I appreciate all the love and support but I need you to understand this is dream come true!! GOD DID!! G O D DID!! @drdre THANK YOU! @kanyewest THANK YOU!! @eminem THANK YOU!!”
“Use This Gospel” is a Dr. Dre remix of Kanye’s original song of the same name. The track was initially expected to arrive on the revamp of Ye’s 2019 album Jesus Is King, but the project never came to fruition. Speaking to Apple Music in a recent interview, Khaled explained how the whole thing came together.
“I called Kanye one day and I said, ‘I got an idea,'” he recalled. “It’s 8 in the morning, he just showed up to my house. I didn’t even know he was coming. He tells the chef to make some eggs with ketchup, and he had a drink. We go to my studio. I play him music. He plays me music. We both inspiring each other. He plays me an incredible album that he did with one of my idols, Dr. Dre. He played it from top to bottom for me. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. We had a great get together at the crib, he leaves.
“That was a year and a half ago. I said I got an idea I remember you playing me this Dr. Dre, Eminem, Kanye record and y’all were talking about God. Y’all were speaking that gospel. I said that would be beautiful if we could put that on God Did. And yeah, hits back and says, ‘I love the idea.’ Ye don’t love no idea.”

God Did is Dj Khaled’s best album to date!! Lots of songs to bump on the clubs plus inspirational messages! Khaled has truly surpassed dr dre in quality
You are so dumb if you believe that! Khaled is trash! He’s not even close to Dre,Timbaland or Neptunes. He’s not even on metro boomin’s level!
too many boosters.ur brain is fried.
So if ye did Dre did and em did what exactly did Khaled did on this record
You clearly don’t know what an executive producer does. He pays producers to either buy make songs, gets artists together, and hypes the finished product in the songs. Dj Khaled has also been known to produce songs as well so he makes musical contributions like being responsible for the samples or instruments added.
So what you’re saying is Khalid didn’t do shit.
Doesn’t make the beat, doesn’t rap, doesn’t sing, doesn’t mix and master. He picks producers and rappers he likes and puts his name on the song. He’s the definition of a “Stamp”. Dr. Dre is the executive producer on all or most of Em’s albums. On a couple of them he contributed little to nothing. Not even the selection or order of the tracklist. But you see that executive producer title, the Aftermath stamp and it adds value. It’s basically a co-sign. It’s marketing. I’d love to hear Khalid explain what he does for a living other than throw his tired catch phrases on other people’s hard work.
arrestted development yo this dude still eatin eggs with ketchup a man whose supposed to have taste letting his b lack babies to be raised by whi te bim bos, next at gap fried bolgna sandwhiches on white bread with the red ring still on

It’s Album of the Year. Check out my track by track on the Pod Deep Podcast – Apple music.
Someone lmk wtf Khalid had to do with any of this?
It’s sad to say Dr Dre hasn’t been a part of an amazing, timeless production in over a decade. The beat here is meh. Nothing special at all. Idk what happened to Dre.
I WOULD SAY 50 CENT OUTTA CONTROL REMIX WAS HIS LAST BANGER
The overall beat aesthetic is for Eminem fans. Beat sounds like some cutting room floor shady sh!t…expect way more from a Ye Dre collab
“A collaboration sent from above.”
I love seeing Ye in action. The man is a true talent.
