It’s been no surprise that DJ Khaled’s eventful rollout for his 12th album, Khaled Khaled, has been a completely on-brand experience from him. From lengthy social media posts in all-caps to a massive billboard that revealed the album’s release date, Khaled is pulling out all the stops for his new project and the music on it seems to fit the theatrics as well.
One of the first songs to catch people’s attention was “Sorry Not Sorry,” as it sees formal rivals, Jay-Z and Nas, working together alongside James Fauntleroy and Harmonies By The Hive — which many guessed, and correctly so, to be Beyonce.
The track is one that Khaled looks to push fresh off the release of Khaled Khaled as it arrives alongside a lavish video. Jay, Nas, and Khaled himself bring their talents to a casino to lay off luxury verses broken up by a soothing hook from Fauntleroy. Nas and Jay-Z sit with Khaled at a casino table while smoking cigars and most likely placing bets that surpass any amount of money I’ve seen in my life.
Khaled Khaled as a whole is a 14-track effort that sees appearances from Drake, Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, Roddy Ricch, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, HER, Big Sean, Rick Ross, Bryson Tiller, and many more. The project originally featured only 13 tracks but Cardi sent in last-minute vocals for her track, “Big Paper.” Khaled Khaled is also Khaled’s first full-length album since 2019’s Father Of Ashad.

Jay-Z and Nas are two of the last Golden Era veterans still standing with the same level of mainstream recognition as younger successors and proteges, as evidenced by their presence on DJ Khaled’s upcoming album Khaled Khaled. However, despite their longevity in the game, they only have a handful of tracks together; their Khaled collaboration “Sorry Not Sorry” will only be the fourth time they’ve actually worked on a song together, as opposed to one or the other being added after the fact. You would think they didn’t like each other or something.
To commemorate their latest conjunction of talents, Jay-Z is using one of his infamous Tidal playlists to pay tribute to his fellow King of New York contender. The playlist, titled “Curated By The God Hov,” places many of Nas’s standout performances, from his 1994 debut Illmatic all the way up to his Grammy-winning 2020 album King’s Disease, in one place. Some of Nas’s most famed guest verses appear as well, including his standout rap from Raekwon’s “Verbal Intercourse,” his label beef-defying cameo on Kanye West’s “We Major,” and the cross-coastal posse cut “Phone Tap” with The Firm.
You can check out the playlist below, and keep your eyes peeled for Jay and Nas’s video for “Sorry Not Sorry” from Khaled Khaled later tonight.
