Remember when we all thought VR would be a lot bigger than it actually was? Well, Khalid is here to remind us of at least some of the possibilities of technology with the video for “Nah,” from his new album After the sun sets.
The video is pretty straightforward, with shots of Khalid singing the groovy single outside a nightclub and on a phone (corded and all! Y2K is back, baby!). But if you have a VR-enabled headset, you can look around (or manually pan the YouTube clip above) to see more of the scene, including dancers gyrating to the track’s sinuous bassline.
In a press release for After the sun setswhich was released today following the singles “Out Of Body” and “In Plain Sight”, Khalid said of the album:
“This is what freedom sounds like. I am completely vulnerable, honest, healing, and fearless. I am proud of who I am and the love I have to give, and I think there is power in that. My hope is that my music helps uplift others and is a soundtrack to their journeys.”
