Finally according to VIBE, Monday (Oct. 20) this week, 38-year old music giant DJ Khaled was admitted into Miami's Aventura Hospital in North Miami Beach.  Though details surrounding his recent hospital stay, have't been disclosed. Khaled checked in with his followers on Instagram and posted, a since been deleted, selfie in a hospital bed wearing an oxygen nose tube. The pic included the caption,

“Thank you to great people at Aventura hospital for taking care of me ! Bless up!! #GODISTHEGREATEST.”

Obviously, the "We The Best" Music star needed a vacation, but his down time was short lived.  Not soon after his released, Khaled took to Instagram again and thanked his followers for all the well wishes and posted another pic of himself back on the grind with his boy French Montana.

"Fresh out back to work thank u for love real talk !!!" he wrote. "I promise I'm going on vacation .. I already book my travel .. Going rest and vibe and win more !@wethebestmusic thank u to all my friends and fam checking in real talk thank u luv! Bless up!"

Unfortunately, this isn't the first time the Hip Hop mogul was hospitalized.  Last year in November, Khaled had a major health scare which resulted in him loosing 63 pounds after being admitted for high blood pressure.  The incident alone led him to go from 300 pounds to 237.  The good news is that he has continued his weight loss journey.

Khaled sat down with VIBE and described that moment in his life saying,

“It wasn’t too crazy but they did all types of tests and they kept me for like two days and it turned into three days and I’m like ‘man, this is crazy.’ They came back good but they wanted me to take like certain medication and I told them ‘I’m not taking that. I know what I gotta do,’” he continued. “I got the answer.’ When I left that day I said “Let me change my eating, get in that gym and let me be focused’ because I care about myself and my family that depends on me."

Meanwhile, DJ Khaled is getting ready to drop his eighth studio album, "I Changed Alot" sometime next month.  Khaled is famous for rounding up the biggest names in the game and he didn't disappoint with his new project.  The lead-off single, "They Don't Love You No More," features Rick Ross, Meek Mill and French Montana and his 2nd single, "Hold You Down," includes Chris Brown, Jerimiah, August Alsina and Future.  Peep the fresh new video below.
