DJ Khaled reportedly has a meltdown because his new album ‘Father of Asahd’ isn’t No. 1

One of DJ Khaled’s many colorful catch phrases is “We the best!”

But the megaproducer can’t say that about his latest album, “Father of Asahd,” named in honor of his beloved 1 year old son. It features tracks with such megastars as Cardi B, Meek Mills and SZA.

And it’s apparently making the omnipresent rapper a little upset. Maybe more than a little.

According to Page Six, when Khaled heard from his label, Epic Records,that the album failed to debut at No. 1, he threw a “tantrum” in their offices.

“He stormed into Epic with an entourage,” a source told the NYC based media outlet. “He was angry and yelling. He threw a temper tantrum.”

“FOA” did make the No. 2 spot (Tyler the Creator‘s “Igor” beat him on the Billboard 200 list), but as his fans know, Khaled prefers to be “da best.”

Khaled’s rep told Miami.com that his “frustrations are actually with Billboard’s handling of his album sales, not his label or Tyler.”

According to Complex, the record was sold alongside multiple merchandise packages, to count toward his Billboard chart placement but that didn’t deal somehow didn’t pan out.

On Thursday, the 43 year old Miami resident posted a video of his index finger pointing straight up, like the number one. In the video he stands in front of his pool at his waterside mansion, silently showing off his gorgeous, million dollar view.

Despite his musical rankings (still holding this week at No. 2 just behind Billie Eilish’s “When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go?”), seems he’s doing pretty OK to us.
