In the clip posted to TikTok, @melaninthaboew1 is seen sitting with her mother. The daughter takes on the role of DJ Khaled and her mother is a starstruck fan.
Translating the famous DJ’s dialogue to isiZulu, @melaninthaboew1 gets her mother to repeatedly shout “DJ Khaled” – as the starstruck lady does in the original music video. She then praises her on her gratitude and loyalty, and showers her with money, while giving her instructions on how to spend it.
Hilariously translating DJ Khaled, the daughter instructs her mother to go buy her mom a house, to build her family a house, to go spend the money for no good reason. She also tells her to put some in the bank and return to ask for more.
