The Story
Khalid (Khalid Robinson) is an American R&B and pop singer-songwriter who broke through as a teenager with the 2016 single 'Location' and the 2017 debut album American Teen, which made him one of the defining young voices of late-2010s pop-R&B. Known for a relaxed, conversational vocal style, he has built a catalog of his own albums alongside a long list of crossover collaborations. He co-writes the bulk of his material with a recurring circle of producers and songwriters.
