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 toGrand Theft Auto 6, as ScHoolboy Q once hinted that he wouldlend his own songs toGTA 6as he did forGrand Theft Auto 5andGrand Theft Auto Online. TheGTAseries 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 toGTA 5.
