While “American Teen” was filled with songs like “Young Dumb & Broke” and “8Teen,” which encompassed the easygoing teen spirit, on his sophomore album Khalid has taken a more introspective approach. “Free Spirit” is now available to the public and can be viewed on Apple Music and YouTube. From creating lasting friendship to finding love and fighting internal demons to find yourself, the film is able to link Khalid’s music to the teen experience.Īt the end of the film fans had the opportunity to listen to the album in its entirety, with video commentary from Khalid on each song. Made with director Emil Nava, the film explores the different aspects of life that teenagers face while growing up. On April 3 at select theaters across the world, Khalid’s fans had the opportunity to watch the short film he created, “Free Spirit.” Along with the release of his album, Khalid created a one-night only experience for fans. On his newest album, Khalid has outdone himself and I think as an artist he will only continue to grow and solidify his sound. Khalid’s second album “Free Spirit” debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and iTunes charts.įor me Khalid’s second album is refreshing, he is revisiting sounds from the ‘90s that aren’t normally heard in today’s pop-centric music.

Khalid released his much anticipated sophomore album, “Free Spirit” on April 5, a little over two years after the release of his debut “American Teen” and a few months after the release of his “Suncity” EP in October, which peaked at No.
