I think it's a good decision. Khalid is already running very close to the edge of overexposure, he's not exactly versatile.

The Zedd remix of "Lost In Japan" will be released tomorrow at midnight EST / this Thursday at 5am. BST.

He's releasing a music video for "Youth" tomorrow at 3pm GMT to coincide with the US midterms on Tuesday.

I hope Youth becomes the next single, it could be very big with the right push.

 

'Lost In Japan' is like one step forward two steps back in terms of chart success at the minute. I can't see it re-entering the Top 40.

This album campaign has been super messy. Youth is my favourite after the lead though.

they should have waited

they just released the Lost in Japan video

They got the hit single and a (US) number one album, it seems like the team/label just wasn't bothered about maintaining it after that.

Nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the Grammys!

They never seem to know what to do with him post-album do they?

Yeah honestly there was so much potential in this album. He needs a new team.

He's releasing a remix EP on Friday, not including the Zedd remix of "Lost in Japan", oddly. Tracklist:

 

1. "Where Were You in the Morning? (feat. kaytranada)

2. "Why" (feat. Leon Bridges)

3. "Youth" (feat. Khalid and Jessie Reyez)

They all sound good but they aren't remix single versions or anything really, it's like the most pointless release ever :lol: Not even including Lost In Japan which actually was a single version and did become a minor hit

I don’t think the intention is to be singles here? Shawn said it was a holiday release for his fans. Quite liking the Kaytranada one

The tour has started!

The setlist looks amazing! :wub: SO excited to hear

Fix You

(if it sticks around for the duration~), think that'll be another incredible cover. Think I'm gonna be broke after getting the merch too. :kink:

I'd leave after the first 5 songs :kink:

Songs #2-#5 are by far my favourite four songs of his :lol:

I'd leave after the first 5 songs :kink:

mess

 

The only thing irking me just a tad about the setlist is some of the songs from this album being snubbed in favour of album tracks from Illuminate? Not that I don't like the songs, but they had their time to shine on the last tour.

He's going to perform on SNL on May 4. I assume this means that new music from him will be released sometime soon (probably a re-release of his self-titled album?), unless an album track from the album is going to be pushed as a single.

I've been seriously loving 'Nervous' over the past few weeks, I can't believe what happened (or rather didn't end up happening) with the release of that. :( Killer song!
