Encyclopedic overview
Khalid Donnel Robinson (/kəˈliːd/ kə-LEED; born February 11, 1998) is an American singer and songwriter from El Paso, Texas. He signed with Courtney Stewart's Right Hand Music Group, an imprint of RCA Records to release his 2016 debut single, "Location" and its 2017 follow-up, "Young Dumb & Broke". Both songs peaked within the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100, received diamond certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and preceded the release of his debut studio album, American Teen (2017). A critical and commercial success, it received quadruple platinum certification by the RIAA and was nominated for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards.
In April 2017, he guest performed alongside Alessia Cara on Logic's hit single "1-800-273-8255", which earned him a Grammy Award nomination for Song of the Year. Robinson's 2018 singles, "Love Lies" (with Normani) and "Eastside" (with Benny Blanco and Halsey), both achieved the record for longest-charting songs within the Mainstream Top 40 chart, and peaked within the Billboard Hot 100's top ten. Later that year, he released his third top-ten single, "Better", which preceded his debut extended play (EP) Suncity. His second studio album, Free Spirit (2019), debuted atop the Billboard 200; its lead single, "Talk", peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100—becoming his highest-charting song thus far—and earned him a Grammy Award nomination for Record of the Year.
