Kehlani poised to launch a bold new era following 'Crash' Tour

Kehlani stands on the cusp of a transformative phase in their career.

Following the conclusion of the expansive 'Crash World Tour', the Oakland-born R&B artist is signalling the dawn of a new creative chapter.

Reflecting on a dynamic year

Kehlani's fourth studio album, Crash, released on June 21, 2024, showcased their versatility, blending elements of R&B, trap, country, dancehall, and Afrobeats.

The album featured collaborations with artists like Jill Scott, Young Miko, and Omah Lay, and was supported by singles such as "After Hours" and "Next 2 U."

Following Crash, Kehlani released the mixtape While We Wait 2 on August 28, 2024, featuring contributions from Lucky Daye, Vince Staples, and FLO.

The subsequent 'Crash World Tour' spanned continents, concluding in Honolulu on March 26, 2025.

Navigating public discourse

Kehlani's outspoken political views, particularly regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict, have led to both support and controversy.

Their pro-Palestinian stance resulted in the cancellation of scheduled performances, including a concert at Cornell University.

Despite these challenges, Kehlani remains committed to using their platform for advocacy and artistic expression.

Teasing the next chapter

In recent days, Kehlani has been dropping hints on social media about upcoming projects.

A video shared by Kehlani teased a new song set to release imminently, generating excitement among fans.
