DJ Khaled has shared his new collab “Staying Alive” featuring Drake and Lil Baby as well as its hospital-themed music video. The mid-tempo collab is the lead single off Khaled’s upcoming 13th studio album God Did, which will arrive on August 26th via We The Best Music Group/Epic Records as a follow-up to last year’s Khaled Khaled.
The track interpolates Bee Gees’ 1977 disco classic of the same name, with all three members of the group accordingly listed in the credits. On the chorus, Drake croons, “Try me a hundred times/ Wanted me to lie, wanted me to cry, wanted me to die/ I, I, I, I’m stayin’ alive, I’m stayin’ alive, I’m stayin’ alive, I’m stayin’ alive.”
In the music video, the superstar rappers turn the Khaled Khaled Hospital For Those That Didn’t Believe™ into a veritable house party. Drake swaggers through the corridors wearing scrubs and a stethoscope, mindlessly signing charts and busily waving off nurses while performing the song.

Meanwhile, Lil Baby smokes a blunt while performing surgery in the O.R. before donning a white doctor’s coat and turning the surgical unit into a VIP area. Later, all the stars converge on the hospital’s parking lot, surrounded by lit-up ambulances as if they were muscle cars out of The Fast and the Furious franchise.
