Kehlani Releases Highly Anticipated Fourth Album ‘CRASH’: Kehlani has officially released their highly anticipated fourth studio album, “CRASH,” delivering a powerful blend of dance tracks and soulful R&B. The 13-track project features notable collaborations with Jill Scott, Young Miko, and Omah Lay, and is packed with summer anthems that showcase Kehlani’s artistic evolution.
Explaining the album’s concept, Kehlani shared, “A crash represents the peak of the moment. It’s neither the anxiety before nor the regret after. It embodies the crucial present, a space free of reminiscence, remorse, or afterthought. This is me at my most free, fun, loud, and fueled.”
The album’s journey began with the release of the lead single, “After Hours,” in April. This track, sampling Cordel Burrell’s “Coolie Dance Riddim,” set the stage for “CRASH” with its infectious energy. The follow-up single, “Next 2 U,” continued this trend, offering listeners a catchy, bop-worthy tune that aligns with the album’s lively vibe.
“CRASH” is a vibrant collection of tracks, each bringing a unique element to the mix. Standout songs include “GrooveTheory,” a smooth and rhythmic track, “What I Want,” a heartfelt ballad, and “8,” a song that perfectly blends R&B and dance elements. Other highlights are “Better Not,” “Vegas,” and the title track “Crash,” each contributing to the album’s diverse and energetic soundscape.
Although Kehlani has not yet announced official tour dates, they confirmed during an Instagram livestream that plans for a series of shows this fall are in the works. Fans can look forward to experiencing “CRASH” live, where Kehlani’s dynamic stage presence will bring these new tracks to life.
In the meantime, listeners can dive into “CRASH” on Spotify and Apple Music. This album promises to be a soundtrack for the summer, filled with tracks that resonate with Kehlani’s signature style and artistic growth.
