“What’s the tea about him?/Said he was just a friend”

Today, GRAMMY-nominated artist R&B star Khalid released a new single called ‘In Plain Sight’ about the lies that the person he’s seeing tells him, claiming the other person is just a friend, but they’re talking about dinner plans. In November 2024, the music star confirmed his sexuality (or confessed that he was romantically linked to another man) after being allegedly outed by a former lover, to which he responded, “I am not ashamed of my sexuality”. ‘In Plain Sight’ doesn’t explicitly mention the cheating partner’s pronouns, but it is the first time I’ve heard Khalid sing “flirting with you again” the way he did. Check out the uptempo record produced by Mattman & Robin, Savan Kotecha, and ILYA below, and continue to anticipate the coming out of his new album ‘After the Sun Goes Down’.
For the 91 Rules-directed visual, he debuts a new hairstyle, wears matching painted fingernails, and boots with shorts that appear to cover his knees in the first scene. About the release, Khalid says, “This chapter is about taking my power back, living in my truth, and being able to express myself freely. I’m excited for my fans to experience this new era with me, not just musically, but personally.”
