Rap-Up.com || DJ Khaled Announces New Album ‘Suffering From Success’

Success is taking its toll on DJ Khaled. After proclaiming We the Best Forever and making his haters Kiss the Ring, the Cash Money DJ has come up with a bold title for his seventh album, Suffering From Success.

In a video trailer, he reflects on his achievements by showing off his plaques, awards, and magazine covers. He later sits down with MTV’s Sway Calloway and reveals how a trip to the doctor inspired the new title.

After becoming concerned about a bald spot that was developing on his beard, he finally paid a visit to the doctor. During the 45-minute session, he was told that he was “suffering from success.”

“I looked at [the doctor] and I was like, ‘That might have been the realest thing you could tell me and it opened my mind up to say, ‘Success comes with stress and happiness,’” he said.

When he left the doctor’s office, it dawned on him to name the album Suffering From Success. The star-studded set is due later this year.

Khaled’s latest album Kiss the Ring debuted at No. 4 in August and spawned the hit singles “Take It to the Head” and “I Wish You Would” featuring Kanye West and Rick Ross.

@Thomas Leone, Dj Khaled does scream yes, but do you realize that he is the one the produces every song on his albums, his name is “DJ” which means he provides the music, he is not a rapper, DJ Khaled albums are made as templates for big features thats why there filled with all the rappers at once and that leads to future collaborations, you gotta pay attention to the cycle. Do you understand now?

@Avon, actually no. He CO-produces about 1/4 of every album “he” puts out. All he does is scream. These rappers must owe him something because he doesn’t do a damn thing.

@Avon, actually he doesn’t produce anything. The Runners used to produce his album tracks, now is J Beats, Mike Will etc…(the same producers on every mixtape).

@Thomas Leone, He doesn’t really produce any of his songs.. but he’s the one who puts the tracks together. He comes up with the idea, features, producers, etc.

More like ‘Suffering from Obesity’, this guy’s career is really a flop.. he doesn’t do anything on his albums, never spits on a track.. and always put out failing albums, he needs to quit.. this is why he sold 30k in a week!
