DJ Khaled 'Suffering From Success' Release Date, Album Cover & Tracklist: After Delay, Oct. 22 Debut &Two Bonus Tracks on Deluxe Edition
With six successful albums, and numerous singles and collaborations with fellow artists, all DJ Khaled does is win when it comes to crafting hip-hop music. The We The Best rapper announces the title and release date of his seventh studio album, the cover art of the upcoming record and the anticipated tracklist for the listeners.
DJ Khaled recently talked about where he got the inspiration for the title of his album, "Suffering From Success." It was from the time when he was visiting a doctor because he discovered a bald spot in his beard, which was developed due to stress.
"We just got done turning in [Rick] Ross' album, and people don't realize, when you turn in an album, it's a lot of work behind the scenes," said the rapper. "At that time, I'm running around and I notice... a big bald spot [on my beard]. I'm acting like I don't want to see it, I'm brushing it away and it kept getting it bigger and bigger. When I finally got home off the road, I was like, 'I'ma go to the doctors'... [the doctor] said [it's a disorder] that comes from your nerves and your stress, but [she] gave me some medication."
"Through that whole process while I'm the doctor's, my phone's ringing, I'm dealing with marketing people, I'm dealing with lawyers... she found out who I was, and after watching that 45 minute doctor's session, she grabbed my shoulder and she just goes, 'Son, you're suffering from success.' I looked at her and was like, 'That might be the realest thing you can tell me.'"
In addition, DJ Khaled pushed his album release date back, "I moved the date back because it got greater. I told you I'm working on the biggest masterpiece ever. I just recorded something so crazy that it's going to have the whole streets erupt, earthquake-style. Sh*t got even realer. This sh*t [is] serious." The project has been led by the certified-gold single "No New Friends" featuring Drake, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne, and "I Wanna Be With You" featuring Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, and Future.
"Suffering From Success" is scheduled to release on October 22, via We The Best, Cash Money and Republic Records.
