Buzzing teen singer-songwriter Khalid joins the likes of Miguel and others with a tribute to the amazing SZA.
Sitting in his tour bus, the soulful crooner performs an acoustic cover of her fan-favorite song “The Weekend.” Coming in at just a little under a minute-and-a-half, the brief clip shows Khalid’s appreciation for the Ctrl standout.
Throughout the unplugged performance, Khalid breaks down the confident track with his own flavor. “You take Wednesday, Thursday, then just send him my way / I need love,” he sings.

“The Weekend” is currently No. 75 on the Billboard Hot 100, while SZA’s Travis Scott-assisted “Love Galore” lands at No. 35.
SZA launches her “Ctrl Tour” tonight in Richmond, VA. In between North American dates, the RCA signee will open for Bryson Tiller on the European leg of his “Set It Off Tour.”
Meanwhile, Khalid is on his “American Teen Tour,” which is slated to continue through Sept. 21 in San Francisco.
