DJ Khaled Teams Up With Influence Media for New Ventures

DJ Khaled is expanding his empire through a new partnership with Influence Media Partners. The deal includes two joint ventures focused on developing film and TV projects, as well as Influence investing in Khaled’s music catalog — though the financial details haven’t been revealed.

“I’m proud that my legacy will continue to connect with fans worldwide through this partnership,” Khaled said. “We’re building something big in film and television, and this next phase will make a major cultural impact.”

This partnership gives Influence Media the opportunity to expand Khaled’s brand even further, including commercial uses of his name, image, and likeness. Backed by BlackRock and Warner Music Group, Influence has previously acquired catalogs from big names like Future, Enrique Iglesias, and Blake Shelton.

“DJ Khaled is the definition of cultural influence,” said Lylette Pizarro, founder of Influence Media. “His creativity, heart, and business instinct make him an incredible partner. The possibilities here are endless.”

Influence, backed by BlackRock and Warner Music Group, has previously worked with artists like Future and Enrique Iglesias. Founder Lylette Pizarro praised Khaled’s creativity and vision, calling the partnership full of “boundless opportunities.”

The announcement comes shortly after Khaled revealed his 14th studio album, Aalam of God, expected in 2025 with a feature from Drake. With hits like “I’m The One” and “Wild Thoughts,” Khaled remains one of music’s biggest names — and now he’s setting his sights on Hollywood.
