“Dada,” DJ Khaled repeats.

On Friday night, the record producer shared another photo, this time of himself with a raised arm and the caption, “I AM THE FATHER OF ASAHD !#HIPHOPDAD.”

In August, the father of one opened up on Instagram about how his son helped him overcome his fear of flying.

“I haven’t flown in 10 years. In 10 years!” he said with Asahd perched on his lap. “That’s the only thing I had was fear of flying. Asahd made me overcome my fear of flying.”

He then turned to the little boy and said, “I love you.”

Khaled and his longtime love, Nicole Tuck, welcomed their son in October 2016. Naturally, Khaled documented the entire process on his favorite app, Snapchat.

About a month after welcoming the little boy, Khaled told PEOPLE that fatherhood suits him well.

“There’s nothing hard about it. Every moment I get a chance to be with my son is such an amazing moment,” he said. “This is something that you’re supposed to be grateful for and embrace.”
