Another collaboration between hitmaker DJ Khaled’s eight-month-old son [Asahd Tuck Khaled](http://time.com/4827561/dj-khaled-asahd-son/) and pop prince Justin Bieber, that is. While responding to fan questions on Wednesday, the young Khaled — who is billed as the “executive producer” of his father’s latest album [_Grateful_](http://time.com/4820737/rihanna-dj-khaled-wild-thoughts/), despite his tender age — was asked if he would work with Bieber again and produce the _Purpose_ singer’s next album. (The Khaleds and Bieber most recently teamed up on smash single [“I’m the One”](http://time.com/4794885/song-of-the-summer-2017/item/im-the-one-dj-khaled-feat-justin-bieber-chance-the-rapper-lil-wayne-and-quavo/) alongside Chance the Rapper, Quavo, and Lil Wayne, a breezy, happy-go-lucky track that’s been holding steady on the summer charts for nearly two months now.) Young Asahd’s response? “Of course! Hey @justinbieber what’s good?!” While it could be a big risk to entrust album production to a literal child, it’s so far proved a lucky strategy for the elder Khaled, who managed to rope in a who’s-who of modern hip-hop for his project featuring everyone from [Rihanna](http://time.com/4820878/5-songs-you-need-to-listen-to-this-week-16/item/wild-thoughts-dj-khaled-feat-rihanna-and-bryson-tiller/) to [Nicki Minaj](http://time.com/4834640/nicki-minaj-key-queens/) to Drake, Beyoncé, and JAY-Z. And everyone seems to be [falling for dapper Asahd](http://time.com/4827561/dj-khaled-asahd-son/) in the process of working for him. Bieber’s last album, [_Purpose_](http://time.com/4158265/justin-bieber-purpose-one-million-sales/), was a blockbuster success that solidified his comeback story in the pop landscape and gave him number-one single “Love Yourself.” But that was 2015\. Ever since, he’s been [performing](http://time.com/4836596/justin-bieber-yeezy-ebay-instagram/) on a global _Purpose_ tour and contributing to one-off tracks from major producers, like [“2U”](http://time.com/4813240/5-songs-you-need-to-listen-to-this-week-15/item/2u-justin-bieber-and-david-guetta/) with David Guetta, [“Cold Water”](http://time.com/4418948/justin-bieber-cold-water-ed-sheeran-diplo/) with Major Lazer, and of course the current [song of the summer leader](http://time.com/4321566/song-of-the-summer-justin-timberlake-cant-stop-the-feeling/) [“Despacito (Remix)”](http://time.com/4794885/song-of-the-summer-2017/item/despacito-daddy-yankee-and-luis-fonsi-feat-justin-bieber/) with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. Bieber, who most recently has been busy uploading selfie videos and memes to [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/justinbieber/), has not yet responded. > [](https://twitter.com/asahdkhaled/status/880268592683470848) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4839192/asahd-khaled-justin-bieber-album/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4839192/asahd-khaled-justin-bieber-album/"},"headline":"The Internet Wants DJ Khaled's Baby to Work With Justin Bieber","datePublished":"2017-06-29T18:48:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:45:01.779Z","description":"The internet asked Asahd Khaled to produce the 'Purpose' singer's next project — and Asahd tweeted that he's up for it.","url":"https://time.com/4839192/asahd-khaled-justin-bieber-album/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Music","viral","twitter","Justin Bieber","dj khaled"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4839192/asahd-khaled-justin-bieber-album/","name":"The Internet Wants DJ Khaled's Baby to Work With Justin Bieber"}}]}] ```
