For decades, Don King has been known as one of the most-popular boxing promoters. But, in recent years, due to his age, Don King has toned things down. In recent years, hip hop has been dominated by the We the Best movement, which encompasses a number of rappers, including current hip hop kings, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne. Initially, the movement was seen as just another group of rappers, but they have proven they are much more than a fad.

Rick Ross pulls of an incredible move every week, gathering the likes of Dr. Dre and Whitney Houston for his birthday bash, only days before she died. As far as collaborations go, Rick Ross has also been impressive. But, the theatrics have not been solely Rick Ross, as DJ Khaled is also well-connected. With his own new album, Kiss the Ring, in the works, DJ Khaled called upon one of the greatest promoters ever.

To reveal the release date of his Kiss the Ring album, DJ Khaled called upon Don King, who revealed the album to have an August 21 release date.
