Disc Jockey. Record executive. Anthem producer. Franchisee. Entrepreneur. DJ Khaled has held all of these titles over the last 30 years, and will soon add another one to the list: Airbnb Host.
To celebrate the release of his Air Jordan 5 “We The Best” collaboration, the self-proclaimed “sneakerhead from birth” is inviting you and a guest to spend the night at a recreation of his legendary sneaker closet, bookable only via Airbnb.
The once-in-lifetime opportunity will take place in Miami, the city DJ Khaled has called “home” since the early 1990s, at an independently owned and operated home listing. Guests will stay at the illustrious pad on either December 5th or 6th for the price of just $11 per guest — a nod to the GRAMMY nominee’s shoe size. In addition to sleeping amongst hundreds of pairs from DJ Khaled’s personal sneaker collection (currently sitting at over 10,000 sneakers), guests can have their own photo shoot on a golden throne in the patio; enjoy a dip in the pool; and sit under palm trees in the backyard to soak in the sounds, smells and vibes Miami has to offer — just like “the father of Asahd” does.
• A handwritten welcome note from the Airbnb Host
• A signed pair of the “We The Best” Air Jordan 5s
• A catered dinner from The Licking (Miami Gardens)
• A private shopping session at Wynwood’s 305 Kicks

“Sneakers are an essential part of hip hop culture and collecting them is an art – just like creating music,” said DJ Khaled. “We bring the same passion and energy to the shoe game as we do the studio. That’s why we’re excited to share our sneaker kingdom with fans and give them a chance to walk in our shoes, literally.”
