Two-time Grammy-winning powerhouse Kehlani is celebrating both a new chapter and a personal milestone with the release of her highly anticipated self-titled fifth studio album, KEHLANI, which arrived on her birthday, April 24.
Packed with superstar collaborations from legends and hitmakers including Brandy, Usher, Missy Elliott, Cardi B, Lil Wayne, Keri Hilson, Tank, Leon Thomas, T-Pain, Lil Jon, and Big Sean, the album evokes a fearless musical voyage through love, vulnerability, healing, passion, and self-discovery.
A self-titled album is often an artist’s most personal statement, and KEHLANI is no exception. The project captures Kehlani at her most honest and creatively liberated, blending soul-baring storytelling with the lush, genre-bending sound that has made her one of modern R&B’s most influential voices. From emotionally raw ballads to infectious, vibe-heavy anthems, the album showcases both her artistic growth and undeniable star power.
With more than 20 RIAA certifications, over 5 billion global streams, and recognition as a 7-time GRAMMY®-nominated artist and songwriter, Kehlani continues to cement her legacy as one of contemporary R&B’s defining voices. This year alone, she was honored at the Femme It Forward Give Her FlowHERS Awards Gala with the prestigious Alchemist Award and was also recognized as an ASCAP Women Behind the Music Honoree. She is also set to receive the Impact Award at the upcoming Billboard Women in Music celebration, where she will deliver a special performance honoring her influence on music and culture.
Fans around the world will also get to experience the new era live as Kehlani prepares to bring KEHLANI to global stages with performances at Essence Festival, Afro Nation Portugal, Roots Picnic, and more.
