Seems like DJ Khaled having Jay Z as a business manager is already paying dividends.
Today, Khaled announced via Instagram he’s been added to Beyoncé‘s Formation world tour, which starts a week from tomorrow in the city where Khaled began as a radio DJ: Miami.
It’s unclear whether he’s been added to all of the tour’s dates — including the international ones, but we know for damn sure he’s gonna have Miami turnt the hell up next week.
On the Beyoncé front, she’s expected to premiere a video/documentary/visual/something on HBO this Saturday called “Lemonade.” Artists usually don’t embark on a massive tour without an album to support it, either (unless you’re Tinashe), so we’re expecting something big this weekend.

UPDATE: It seems the video announcement ha been deleted from Khaled’s Instagram. The visual seemed like it had some dates wrong for the tour, so maybe that’s getting adjusted. He’s still going to open for Beyoncé.
