Song of the Summer
Khaled & Justin Bieber Team Up on No Brainer
While DJ Khaled may be best known in recent years for his inspirational antics on snapchat and his son Asahd, he is undoubtedly an established producer with the firepower to create hit after hit. His latest, “No Brainer,” features a shaggy, blonde Justin Bieber on the hook and guest verses from Quavo and Chance the Rapper.
Even though his most recent album Grateful went platinum last year thanks to singles like “Wild Thoughts,” Khaled isn’t resting on his laurels. The New Orleans-born producer is set to release his next album Father of Asahd later this year.
On “No Brainer,” Khaled’s role as maestro is clear. Playing the part of a film director in the music video, Khaled’s ability to seamlessly orchestrate a hit with three big names in the industry is almost as impressive as his ability to promote Ciroc.
While you shouldn’t be coming to Khaled’s songs if you’re on the hunt for lyrical depth? There is no denying that Khaled is a master at making fun earworms that are sure to be on repeat for months to come. If you don’t believe us, you need look no further than the over 46 million views the video for “No Brainer” has garnered in only a week. If you ask us, Khaled’s position on a list of summer hit makers is a no brainer.
