This ode to a fresh, fast-moving romance finds Khalid trying to define a relationship status. I've never felt like this before I apologize if I'm movin' too far Can't we just talk? Can't we just talk? Figure out where we're going Khalid has never gone this far before emotionally and he wants to discuss the relationship's trajectory with his love interest. The synth-heavy track was produced by Disclosure. The British electronic music duo comprise brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence and are best known for their international hit "Latch." Khalid performed the song when he was the musical guest on the March 9, 2018 episode of Saturday Night Live. He also sang "Better" on the Idris Elba-hosted episode. "Talk" was named Song of the Year at the virtual 2020 BMI R&B/Hip-Hop Awards.
