Kehlani Unveils New Single And R&B Gem “Folded”
Kehlani returns to the spotlight with “Folded”, a simmering R&B slow jam that blends heartbreak with clarity, sensuality, and quiet strength.

Released via Atlantic Records, the track marks the multi-platinum artist’s first solo single of 2025, and a striking contrast to her recent upbeat dance collaboration “Think of Me” with David Guetta, HUGEL, and Daecolm.
On “Folded”, Kehlani sounds both raw and composed, delivering her most vulnerable performance in years. It’s not a cry for closure, it’s an invitation for truth, and maybe one last conversation.
The track’s production is rich and intentional, led by Khris Riddick-Tynes, Andre Harris, Don Mills, and D.K. the Punisher. Subtle guitar licks and warm, heavy bass lines create a sensual, late-night atmosphere, while Kehlani’s unmistakable vocals glide effortlessly across the instrumentation. Co-written by Kehlani alongside the producers, Kamal Wilson and DIXSON, “Folded” is both deeply personal and universally resonant.
This single follows the 2024 release of Kehlani’s mixtape “While We Wait 2” and her acclaimed studio album “CRASH”, which featured collaborations with Lucky Daye, Vince Staples, FLO, and more.
But “Folded” stands out for its emotional maturity. There’s no pleading, no theatrics, just an honest portrait of post-breakup grace.
Currently climbing the Genius Top Songs chart, “Folded” is more than a song; it’s a statement. It finds Kehlani at her most confident, quietly asserting boundaries while leaving room for healing.
