Another one! DJ Khaled revealed his second son with wife Nicole Tuck is named Alam. The rapper shared the newborn's moniker while accepting the Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Performance for his collaboration "Higher" with John Legend and Nipsey Hussle.
"This is for Nipsey Hussle. This is for hip-hop," DJ Khaled told the audience at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. "I want to thank my beautiful queen Nicole," he added, giving his newborn son a shoutout. "His name is Alam, it means 'the world' in Arab."
DJ Khaled and Tuck are also parents to 3-year-old son Asahd Tuck Khaled. The couple have been together well over a decade but didn't tie the knot until 2016.
Prior to accepting the Grammy, DJ Khaled and John Legend helped pay tribute to the late Nipsey Hussle by performing a tribute along with YG, Meek Mill, Roddy Ricch, and Kirk Franklin.The rappers also honored Kobe Bryant, who tragically died earlier Sunday morning following a helicopter crash.
