While in town, he performed two sold-out arena shows and dropped a new track entitled “Better” dedicated to his fans and the city of EL PASO. 

KHALID said, “EL PASO is my home and I am so honored by the love they have shown me - releasing ‘Better’ the day of my first hometown show, and then being able to play in the city of the 915 on 9/15 is so meaningful and special to me. This city has given me everything, I am so thankful!”
