Khalid who was sporting a fanny pack slung across his chest and was all smiles was very appreciative of how much love the city and its fans have bestowed upon him and his success as a musician. He stated that he is most proud of his adopted city of El Paso and proclaims it from every stage that he performs on across the world. In fact, he mentions that, “…the loudest line, and I’m not lying to you, it’s the loudest line of every show, is always – the city of the 915!”
