Khaled's last album, 2007's "We The Best," debuted at No 8 on the Billboard Top 200 and has sold over 400,000 copies on the strength of the album's two huge hits, "We Takin' Over" and "
I'm So Hood" and its massive Remix.
Khaled is also closing in on 3 million combined Digital/Mobile units on the strength of "
I'm So Hood" and "We Takin' Over."
DJ Khaled, who currently has the most popular radio show in Miami (WEDR/99 Jamz), released his debut, "Listennn...The Album," last year debuting at No 1 on the Billboard Independent Chart. The album spawned 3 singles/videos including "Holla At Me," "Grammy Family," and "Born N' Raised."
