Summary
- DJ Khaled is rumored to have a cameo in Grand Theft Auto 6, possibly as an in-game radio station host.
- Previous GTA games featured real-life musicians as in-game radio hosts.
Rockstar is known for putting celebrities in its games, and a new rumor suggests that DJ Khaled will have a cameo in Grand Theft Auto 6. The internet has been filled with speculation about Grand Theft Auto 6 ever since the next chapter in the blockbuster open-world crime series was officially confirmed in 2023, ranging from rumors about its improved gameplay mechanics to theories surrounding its 2025 release date.
What is known so far is that Grand Theft Auto 6 will return to the popular Vice City and its home state of Leonida, which is based on Florida and is home to all manner of wild hijinks befitting the chaotic GTA series. Players will take on the role of Lucia, a recently released prison inmate, and her yet-unnamed boyfriend/partner-in-crime, who rumors claim is named Jason. This Bonnie and Clyde-like criminal duo will likely encounter many memorable characters during their trials and tribulations in Leonida, and a new rumor suggests that Mr. Miami himself could be among them.

One of GTA 5’s Most Memorable Secrets Could Inspire a Hilarious Grand Theft Auto 6 Activity
Grand Theft Auto 5 had a memorably creepy easter egg that could lead to new line of side missions in GTA 6’s version of Vice City.
Noted Call of Duty leaker TheGhostofHope claimed that DJ Khaled will be featured in Grand Theft Auto 6 in a recent Twitter post, as reported by ComicBook. Khaled will supposedly host one of GTA 6’s in-game radio stations that would feature some of his music for players to listen to while fleeing the law or driving to the scene of their next crime. TheGhostofHope also believes that other real-life artists could host their own radio stations in GTA 6, but shared no other details.
GTA 6 Could Have DJ Khaled As a Radio Host
This isn’t the first time that a real-life rapper was claimed to be attached to Grand Theft Auto 6, as ScHoolboy Q once hinted that he would lend his own songs to GTA 6 as he did for Grand Theft Auto 5 and Grand Theft Auto Online. The GTA series in general is known for including real-world musicians as in-game radio hosts, with Kenny Loggins, DJ Pooh, Pam Grier, and Frank Ocean all lending their voices to GTA 5. Dr. Dre was even the focus of a pair of GTA Online updates, complete with a collection of songs for 2022’s The Contract update.
Like with many Grand Theft Auto 6 rumors, there is no official confirmation that DJ Khaled will be involved with the game in any capacity, but having him as an in-game radio host players can listen to while driving through the mean streets of Vice City would certainly be a treat for his gaming fans. The rest of the gaming world is still waiting for so much as an official Grand Theft Auto 6 release date, as Rockstar is still holding its cards close when it comes to its next major open-world extravaganza.
