Khaled Bounty — DJ Khaled, Bounty Killer

Fresh off the success of their hit Where You Come From, American record producer DJ Khaled shared with Bounty Killer that he should reach out to Jamaica’s Prime Minister to get his Jamaica birth certificate.

The Dancehall artist assured him that he would be reaching out to “Andrew”, Jamaica’s Prime Minister, to make it official. “This is a big marketing tool for the Jamaica tourist board so Edmond Bartlett, (the island’s Tourism Minister) he should take note of this.”

Both men had an impromptu Instagram Live today, where they revealed that DJ Khaled will also be producing a song off Bounty Killer’s upcoming album King of Kingston.

DJ Khaled said Bounty Killer was the first to co-sign him when he only had $100 dollars in his pocket and was making $100 per week. “You were always rich in soul Khaled, your soul is of Gold man,” Bounty Killer assured him.

“I know you genuinely love this. This record is for the culture to give you your Jamaican birth certificate. They know that you are a yard man at heart”.

DJ Khaled asked Bounty Killer what was his favorite Bounty Killer song and he replied “Look Into My Eyes is my biggest song but Mama She Is Not In A Good Mood is my favorite due to the sentimental value.”

Khaled asked why he didn’t do a video and Bounty confessed he was never a “Video artist”.

“I was a sniper I think I was not too good for the screen it’s just in the new era of YouTube and they say you gotta do videos but if you notice all of my great hits Anytime, look into my eyes, poor people fed up none of them had no videos.”

DJ Khaled’s Khaled Khaled is currently the number one album on iTunes and Spotify. The single Where You Come From featuring Bounty Killer, Buju Banton, Capleton, and Barrington Levy is number 71 worldwide and number 12 on the Hip Hop chart. The music video is number 3 on the iTunes Hip Hop chart.

Bounty Killer’s King of Kingston will come 18 years after his last album Ghetto Dictionary, which was released by VP Records in 2002. It will be executive produced by Damian Marley.
