Additionally, he joined forces with Snapchat and Los Angeles-based agency BLNK to create and launch four immersive augmented reality Lens experiences in honor of GOD DID.
As part of this immersive collaboration, the newest Lens arrives today. It utilizes and leverages Snap’s custom Marker technology, which triggers a Lens experience tied to a location or image, to bring the cover artwork to life when fans scan the cover or Times Square billboard with the Snapchat Camera. The Lens unlocks DJ Khaled reciting the lyrics from his new single “Grateful” now available on Sounds, Snapchat’s creative tool that enables Snapchatters to add licensed music to their photo or video Snaps.
Khaled recently appeared on REVOLT’s Drink Champs for a hilarious and candid interview. In addition to a wide-ranging Rap Radar interview, he also sat down with Complex at home for an in-depth conversation, covering everything from Barack Obama to JAY-Z. As part of the feature, he opens up about GOD DID, his vision for the future, and so much more.
He notably set the stage for the album with “Staying Alive” [feat. Drake & Lil Baby]. It has already amassed over 34.7 million Spotify streams and 12 million YouTube views on the music video. Plus, it bowed at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100, holding strong on the chart.

The anthem king has returned with GOD DID, and he delivers his biggest, boldest, and best body of work to date.
