R&B hitmaker Khalid, whose songs "Young Dumb & Broke," "Location" and "Better" have racked up billions of streams, plays tonight at Municipal Auditorium.
It's a homecoming for the singer, who grew up in Clarksville while his mom was stationed at Fort Campbell.
What he's saying: "All my childhood memories at the parks and racing down the street ... that all lives in Clarksville," Khalid told the Tennessean.
The intrigue: Khalid has collaborated with country music artist Kane Brown and cowrote "Beautiful People" with Ed Sheeran in Nashville. He told the newspaper he would be willing to wade into more Music City crossovers down the line.
