The über hype music maestro just added a $25.9 million contemporary Miami Beach house to the expanding Khaled kingdom, topped off by a two-level gazebo and an 80-foot-long pool dope enough for swimming, wild pool parties or filming Aquaman aquatics starring his adorable 2-year-old son Asahd—already a YouTube sensation himself. After all, as a new dad, he could use the 12,750 square feet of extra space.

The limestone tropical residence features monumental wooden eaves.

DJ Khaled purchased the home from Michael Lerner, the entrepreneur behind “Baby on Board” signs. No word on whether Lerner sealed the deal by tossing the social media superstar a few of those car caution diamonds for his almost famous son.

DJ Khaled is a family man, an extremely proud father who has Asahd in tow along his dream journey. He even released a pair of Nike Jordan Brand sneakers called, “The ‘Father Of Asahd 3’s.” His son also joins him routinely on concert and award show stages. He may have more celebrity friends than Oprah already.
