#Watch the video for Kehlani’s new Blue Water Road track “Altar”

Kehlani has released “Altar”, the first taste of her new album Blue Water Road, which was announced earlier this week. Featuring Kehlani’s signature husky timbre, “Altar” sees the R&B singer in full loved-up mode, waxing lyrical about their partner atop gently warped guitars and blooming organic synthwork. It’s a piece of music that showcases what Kehlani does best, and it’s a welcome sign for their next era. “to all those i have lost, all the angels i have gained, all those that walk with me with hands cracking my chest open, this is for you,” Kehlani said of the track on Twitter. Blue Water Road, the follow-up to 2020’s It Was Good Until It Wasn’t, is out this winter. Listen to “Altar”, and watch its Kid Studio-directed video, above.

to all those i have lost, all the angels i have gained, all those that walk with me with hands cracking my chest open, this is for you. i love you! 🕯 #ALTAR 🕊 THANK YOU
