About Khalid:
Multi-platinum selling global superstar Khalid has catapulted into massive worldwide success since he released his first single Location right before his high school graduation. The song’s domination (4x platinum in the US and Gold in the UK) led to Khalid’s major label deal with Right Hand Music Group / Columbia Records followed by the release of his debut album, American Teen, which has since gone double platinum in the US and Gold in the UK. The album, which garnered Khalid 5 Grammy nominations received mass critical acclaim with Rolling Stone calling Khalid a “pop prodigy” and TIME Magazine stating, “His thoughtful, relatable reflections on modern youth culture and the limitations of love are just as pitch-perfect as his soulful, measured delivery.” He has since earned an incredible 9.1 plus billion streams globally, which resulted in Khalid being the second most streamed artist on Spotify in 2018. The singer-songwriter has won a Billboard Music Award, a Teen Choice Award, a MTV Video Music Awards, a MTV’s Woodie To Watch Award and most recently a American Music Award. In addition to American Teen, Khalid has collaborated with some of music’s biggest stars.
