We The Best CEO DJ Khaled's "Let It Go" is much more than a dope visual. The must-see music video turns an ordinary golf course into the ultimate turn up session with 21 Savage and Justin Bieber leading the way.
21 Savage + Justin Bieber Turn Up
After some initial teasing, Khaled hit the green light on his chart-topping Khaled Khaled album’s standout single invading screens. The video takes motivation from 90’s comedy film Happy Gilmore as the Biebs plays out Adam Sandler‘s character.
In celebration of his album debuting at No. 1 on the sales c hart, Khaled vowed to drop his “Let It Go” music video today.
“GREAT MORNING!!!!! FANLUV Let’s go GOLFING 🏌️♂️ ,thank you for making #KHALEDKHALED the #1 #album in the country @billboard !! let’s celebrate this #1!! Letting that #LETITGO video Go 🎥🤯 12 PM ET! Tell a friend, bring a friend! @justinbieber @21savage lets go!! @youtubemusic @vevo 🎥🍿🔥🔥🔥”
DJ Khaled Gets Emotional Over Going No. 1

“KHALEDKHALED ALBUM DEBUT #1 ON @billboard! BILLBOARD BILLI !!!! #1 ALBUM IN THE COUNTRY!🤲🏽”
The project reportedly sold nearly 100,000 copies to secure the top spot.

Huge First-Week Projections
