DJ Khaled has joined forces with eMed, the leader in at-home testing technology, for a multi-million dollar “Keep America Healthy” Campaign aimed at improving COVID-19 testing in the United States.
The company’s CEO and Co-Founder Dr. Patrice Harris announced the collaboration at the tech trade show CES. Khaled took to social media to debut a collaborative video, where he broke down how eMed works and gave shout-outs to eMed’s team.
“Everybody, and I mean everybody have to be tested when they come to my house,” Khaled said in the video. “What’s so beautiful about eMed is that you can get tested at home, at your pool, your office, your studio, wherever you’re at. Right there, get tested and get your results in 15 minutes right there on your phone verified.”
The announcement comes as the company seeks to enhance its Test-to-Treat™ capabilities, which offer current at-home testing and fast prescription for antiviral medication should customers test positive for COVID-19 flu, strep and even UTI’s.

Aside from collaborating with massive million-dollar tech companies, Khaled recently sat down at Art Basel with Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings to offer his tips on how others can achieve similar success.
“I’m a producer, I’m a DJ, I’m a father, I’m a friend. I’m in real estate, I’m in retail, I’m into restaurants, I’m into it all,” Khaled said at one point. “We’re supposed to use our social media because it’s really a free commercial for your business. One thing I learned about building a great business…If you do good business, you get good business back. If you do great business, you get great business back.”
Khaled also added that patience is a huge part of the game.
“It didn’t happen overnight for me,” Khaled said. “Quincy Jones didn’t make Thriller until he was 50 years old. Me, when I turned 40, that was when my biggest success happened. I’ve worked free 90 percent of my life, 97 percent of my life, I worked for free. And anyone can vouch for that. But I knew what it would take, and so your social media, you put out that good stuff, you get that good stuff back. That’s the key.”
