The music in this album makes listeners want to relax and let the music take them away. It completely matches the effortlessly cool, laidback vibes of the album. The photo is in the still of the night, the bright city lights in the background a stark contrast to the stillness around him. The album cover art features Khalid sitting on top of a car in the middle of the city. After not releasing an album last year, he presents us with Scenic Drive (The Tape) at the buzzer of 2021 – and it’s his best work yet. The approach with his albums has stayed relatively consistent over the last four years, keeping all of his previous three full-length albums under an hour.

Since his 2017 debut album, Khalid has solidified himself as one of the most influential and prominent faces in the pop music scene. Khalid’s new album paints a beautiful and realistic story of modern love and communication.
