A global superstar with multiple platinum records to his name, Khalid, named among TIME's most influential people of 2019, has conquered the world since his debut single "Location", certified diamond by the RIAA, was released just before he graduated from high school.

The double-platinum album debuted at number one on the Billboard Top 200 and includes the multi-format number one single "Talk", nominated for GRAMMY Awards. 6 billion streams worldwide across all platforms.

He has been nominated seven times for GRAMMY Awards and has won numerous honours, including six Billboard Music Awards, four American Music Awards, two iHeartRadio Music Awards and one MTV Video Music Award, among others.

He was also honoured at the 71st annual BMI Pop Awards with the Champion Award.

He has collaborated with the biggest names in music, notably on his number one singles "Love Lies" (with Normani) and "Eastside" (with Halsey and Benny Blanco), as well as with Alicia Keys, Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran and many others.

In 2020, he became the youngest artist to surpass 15 billion streams on Spotify and was named BMI's Pop Songwriter of the Year. To close out 2021, Khalid released the mixtape Scenic Drive, which he describes as a companion project to his EP Sun City (2018).
