Khalid is grounded these days.
So, Khalid’s latest tracks haven’t quite found their place in my iTunes library. But I’m not under the illusion that my taste reflects everyone’s. In fact, that would be far from the truth. According to Spotify, Khalid’s recent single, “Please Don’t Fall In Love With Me,” has racked up nearly 40 million streams, while the one before it came close to 20 million. Clearly, he’s still thriving.
In “Ground,” Khalid explores how sunny weather, recreational drugs, and a carefree lifestyle affect his and his partner’s mental states. The track is undeniably smooth, featuring a therapeutic beat with a pleasant tempo and hypnotic melodies. However, I do find it a little strange that Khalid sounds like he recorded the track after doing a root canal. Maybe he’s channeling that anesthesia high into his performance!
Khalid’s brother, Jaylen Brown, said Bronny James is not a pro the other day (How dare he say that).
Quincy is the creator of Ratings Game Music. He loves writing about music, taking long walks on beaches, and spaghetti that fights him back.
