"DJ Khaled's Son" is an unreleased song by Kanye West that was created during the LOVE EVERYONE era.
Background[]
Since December 2022 only a snippet of the song had been found, but on March 29th 2024, the full version of the song was leaked online. Prior to this, Mike Dean had confirmed that he had created the background keys for the song.
The song has gained notoriety for its insensitive lyrics. In the song, Ye is heard listing off controversial slurs, after he says he carries his gun everywhere he goes "like DJ Khaled's son."[1] This line refers to in 2016 when, DJ Khaled was being accused of bringing his son with him everywhere for publicity. Also, he talks about rape.
Similar to other unreleased songs, many of the verses have Ye mumbling throughout.

WIP
[Chorus]
DJ Khaled’s son everywhere I go, everywhere I go
I keep my gun everywhere I go, like DJ Khaled's son
Everywhere I go, everywhere I go
[Verse 1]
See? All these n***** safe, n*****
But now y’all know that y’all ain’t safe, n*****
So she could never call out rape, n*****
Thought I wouldn’t affiliate with you
Want a THB on a date with you
That I really wouldn’t affiliate with you that I really wouldn’t want to mate with you
Took eight pictures, like “I ain’t gonna take no chance, no time when I own some…”
[Chorus]
I keep my gun everywhere I go, like DJ Khaled's son
Everywhere I go, everywhere I go
I keep my gun everywhere I go, like DJ Khaled's son
Everywhere I go, everywhere I go
I keep my gun everywhere I go, like DJ Khaled's son
Everywhere I go, everywhere I go
[Verse 2]
I heard you can’t say f** no more, spic no more, kike no more
I heard you can’t say bitch no more, like no more, d*** no more
I heard they said you can't like no more life, no doing life no more
I heard you can't have real fake, [?] you can't penetrate
I too, [?] son you're being lied to
[?] bitches that I lied to
