After the successful release of Baliyefeaturing Raxstar and Canadian vocalist Zoha Zuberi, Belgian-based artist Ahmed Khan keeps the momentum going with his brand new single King. A heartfelt and romantic track, King celebrates love, admiration and connection, where Ahmed envisions himself as a king to the woman he sees as his queen.
The song unfolds as a tender, romantic conversation, highlighting not just the charm of the girl’s traditional attire, but the way she carries herself, her personality and the light she brings into his life. It’s a sincere expression of appreciation for both her inner and outer beauty, blending cultural imagery with universal romance.
“The song King is about a young man happily declaring his love,” says Ahmed Khan. “This girl brings a lot of brightness into his world while he dreams of a future together. He sees himself as a king and her as his match, his queen. For me, it’s all about appreciation and the belief that life is short, so make the most of every moment with the one you love.”
Drawing inspiration from timeless love stories like Romeo and Juliet, Ahmed reimagines his version as King and Queen, creating a modern ballad of romance, loyalty and admiration. The Punjabi lyrics describe the red paranda, fleeting moments of love and the desire to hold his partner close, weaving tradition with heartfelt emotion.
Ahmed Khan, who has earned praise from BBC Asian Network, Rolling Stone India and BritAsia TV, continues to establish himself as one of the most exciting voices in the urban Punjabi music scene. His ability to combine introspective writing with melodic hooks has set him apart, with more collaborations and international projects lined up for later this year.
King is now available on all major streaming platforms, giving fans another glimpse into Ahmed Khan’s evolving artistry, a sound that merges tradition with modern romance, and heartfelt sincerity with style.
