8TEEN

About 8TEEN

“8TEEN,” like the title suggests, is an ode to being 18 years old. Khalid touches on first loves, strict parents, staying out late, smoking pot and being with your friends on the track, summing it up with a single refrain: "Let’s do all the stupid shit that young kids do…" "With the project, a lot of the upbeat songs seem happy. Even though the song is very upbeat, pay attention to the words long enough, and it’s like, “This isn’t the happiest song ever. .
