Two sons — and famous album credits that need context, not inflation

DJ Khaled’s 2 Children: Asahd and Aalam, Ages and Credits

Quick answer: DJ Khaled and Nicole Tuck have two sons: Asahd Tuck Khaled, born 23 October 2016, and Aalam Tuck Khaled, born 20 January 2020. On 14 August 2026, Asahd is 9 and Aalam is 6.

Both boys have prominent credits in their father’s music world. Asahd was billed as an executive producer on the 2017 album Grateful, and both sons are credited on later family-linked projects. Those credits are real; they do not establish independent executive careers for children.

The current hook is equally concrete. In July 2026, both sons joined their father during a television interview about the delayed album Aalam of God. That is a dated appearance, not a new occupation.

This guide answers the family question first, explains how the names connect to DJ Khaled’s catalogue and protects the distinction between a parent-managed credit and a child’s professional agency.

Aalam Tuck Khaled20 January 20206Namesake of Aalam of God; later family-linked credits

Their father is Khaled Mohammed Khaled, known professionally as DJ Khaled. Their mother is Nicole Tuck, a long-time partner in Khaled’s family and business life.

Asahd turns 10 in October 2026. Aalam turns 7 in January 2027.

What is publicly established about Asahd Khaled?

Asahd is DJ Khaled and Nicole Tuck’s elder son. Time reported his birth on 23 October 2016 while Khaled documented the event publicly.

Apple Music and contemporary interviews credit Asahd as an executive producer on Grateful. Khaled explained the role through the baby’s reactions while music played—an affectionate, parent-led creative framing rather than conventional corporate decision-making by an infant.

The later album Father of Asahd made the family connection part of the title. These are meaningful catalogue facts, but Asahd remains a school-age child rather than a music executive with an independently evidenced job.

What is publicly established about Aalam Khaled?

Aalam is the younger son. Khaled’s announcement, reported by BET, gives 20 January 2020 as his birth date and identifies the name’s “world” meaning in Arabic.

The announced album title Aalam of God makes Aalam’s name part of his father’s current work. During a July 2026 television appearance, Khaled discussed delaying the album and both boys appeared with him.

A namesake title and family appearance are not proof that a six-year-old directs the project. The album’s status should also be dated: it was delayed from a previously announced July 2026 release, so a profile should not call it already released without a current catalogue record.

Are Asahd and Aalam really executive producers?

RecordPublic credit or linkCareful interpretation
Grateful (2017)Asahd billed as executive producerReal album credit, parent-managed during infancy
Father of Asahd (2019)Asahd is the title inspirationCatalogue fact, not a job description
Khaled Khaled (2021)Both sons included in executive-producer billingFamily credit within their father’s project
Aalam of GodAalam is the namesakeCurrent project link; release status must be checked

An album’s official credits should be reported accurately. The mistake is not mentioning them; it is rewriting a symbolic or parent-supervised role as an independent career with adult responsibilities.

That distinction makes the profile more credible while preserving the family story Khaled deliberately built into his catalogue.

Who is the mother of DJ Khaled’s children?

Nicole Tuck is the mother of Asahd and Aalam. She and Khaled have kept much of their relationship private even while appearing together at selected events.

Profiles vary in whether they call the couple married, engaged or long-term partners. Without a direct current marriage record, “DJ Khaled and Nicole Tuck” is more precise than making marital status carry the family answer.

What current DJ Khaled profiles should correct

Asahd is 9 and Aalam is 6 on the review date. Both appeared with their father during a July 2026 interview, and Aalam of God had been delayed from its announced release date.

A current page should not describe an unreleased or delayed album as available, nor should it imply two minors are operating a record business because their father used executive-producer billing.
