[QUOTE="UPROXX, post: 24713, member: 81"] Khalid is always expanding his sound, and with a voice like his, why not? Over any melody or any style of production, Khalid’s voice is so effortless and timeless, it literally always sounds good. So no, fans won’t be disappointed at all by his new single, “Skyline,” which is admittedly a bit more funky and pop than some of his past, soulful R&B work. “Skyline” is definitely a departure from the other early 2022 song he’s shared, “[URL='https://uproxx.com/music/khalid-last-call-american-teen-the-yearbook/']Last Call[/URL],” which came along with the [I]American Teen[/I] retrospective, [I]American Teen: The Yearbook[/I], and fit in with the sound of his debut album.
