Special announcement alert: DJ Khaled has secured the goshdarn bag.
The mega-popular new signee to Roc Nation was in New York yesterday promoting…well…himself at a chaotic pop-up shop appearance in SoHo, after which he announced that something big was coming today during the 12 o’clock hour. Khaled dished out nary a hint, but rather continued to tease today’s announcement all over his Instagram and Snapchat. We now know what the heck the fuss was about.
DJ Khaled will be opening for Beyonce–yes, that Beyonce–during her Formation World Tour, which kicks off later this month. Khaled made the announcement in the caption of an emotional and lengthy Instagram trailer for the tour, which interpolated sizzle reel clips of both him and Queen Bey, whom he thanked for the “tremendous opportunity of a lifetime.”
Khaled will be joining Beyonce from the tour’s first stop, which is fittingly in his hometown of Miami, and from there, well, he’ll be “on the road to more success.”
Congrats to DJ Khaled, and here’s another reason to secure your Formation World Tour tickets.
