Location (Remix)

## Single by Khalid featuring Lil Wayne and Kehlani

"**Location (Remix)**" is a song by American R&B singer Khalid, released as the official remix of his hit single "Location" on March 17, 2017, through RCA Records. It was included as the bonus track from the Japan edition of his debut studio album, *American Teen*. It features guest vocals from American artists Lil Wayne and Kehlani.

## Critical reception

Kyle Kramer of *Noisey* felt the assistance from Kehlani and Wayne were "perfect additions," adding, "There's a differently expressed but similarly intense quality of sincerity in all three, and it's something that is particularly rare in an era where good marketing and a compelling social media presence can be enough to vault a song up the charts. You believe in Wayne because of the talent, and the same is true of Kehlani and Khalid, two younger artists who give me great hope for the future." He concluded, "So, even though Wayne offers a not particularly romantic metaphor about roses and rosacea here, I hope that his presence gives this song the extra boost it needs to be a smash hit. The raw materials are certainly there." *XXL*'s Max Weinstein remarked, "The track finds Wayne using Autotune in much the same fashion that he used it on his classic "Prostitute Flange" record." *HotNewHipHop* assessed, "Weezy and Kehlani add an obvious cachet to the track. The songstress in particular, lend her amazing vocal chops to the Khalid's low key style. Lil Tunechi offers sweet lovey-dovey bars that Drake fans will surely appreciate. But most of all, the additions don't overshadow Khalid's unique swag."

## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro: Lil Wayne]

Remix, baby, yeah

[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]

I meet you at the spot, send the location

I don't do this a lot, special occasion

I know you ain't a thottie, you ain't no basic

I turn your dry spot to an oasis

I kiss the right spots, I know all the places

Oh I lick the right spots, that's an ultimatum

The loud in rotation, cloud 9, flotation

Let the rose petals spread like rosacea

I know your ex to blame for your cold nature

Tell him stay in his lane, stop the road ragin'

And now I got you in here makin' those faces

Runnin' 'round the bedroom like four bases, moolah!

[Chorus: Khalid]

Send me your location, let's

Focus on communicating

'Cause I just need the time and place to come through (Place to come through)

Send me your location

Let's ride the vibrations

I don't need nothing else but you (I don't need nothing else but you)

[Verse 2: Khalid]

At times I wonder why I fool with you

But this is new to me, this is new to you

Initially, I didn't wanna fall for you

Gather my attention it was all for you, so don't

Take advantage, don't leave my heart damaged

To understand that things go a little bit better when you plan it... oh

So won't you

[Chorus: Khalid]

Send me your location, let's

Focus on communicating

'Cause I just need the time and place to come through

Send me your location

Let's ride the vibrations

I don't need nothing else but you (I don't need nothing else but you)

[Verse 3: Kehlani]

Drop me a pin, let's fall

Way deeper into whatever we're callin' it

Whatever we're fallin' into

'Cause I don't really care about rules (Rules)

I don't really care about rules (Rules)

I just really care about you (You)

I'm enjoyin' starin' into (To)

Your eyes when I'm all in it with you

They can choose to watch, but I'd rather they just listen

Could fill up an album with everything that they're missin'

They so superficial, don't understand how we're chillin'

We don't need a lot, we got us and that's why we're winnin'

To them it's a park bench, us a magic carpet

Little trips to Target turn to avant garde shit

I promise, we got this, we got this

Baby just send me your

[Chorus: Khalid, *Kehlani*]

Send me your location, let's

Focus on communicating

'Cause I just need the time and place to come through (Place to come through)

*Time and place to come through*

Send me your location

Let's ride the vibrations

I don't need nothing else but you (I don't need nothing else but you)

*Nothing else, but you*

[Outro: Khalid, *Kehlani*, '*Lil Wayne*]

Ride, ride, ride, come and vibe with me tonight

*Ride, ride*

I don't need nothing else but you

(I don't need nothing else but you)

Ride, ride, ride, come and vibe with me tonight

*Ride, ride.... tonight*

I don't need nothing else but you

But you, but you

Nothing else but you

*But you*

**(Remix, baby)**

Do, do, do, do, do, do

*Do, do, do, do, do, do*

*Do, do, do, do, do, do*

Oh, oh, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, mmm, mmm, mmm

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do

*Do, do, do, do, do, do*

*Do, do, do, do, do, do*

Oh, I don't need nothing else but you
