He is also in a Band of body percussionists called “Molodi” which is his pride and joy. Khalid found his inner rhythm through the absence of a drum even though his father is a professional drummer, he never gave him a drum set of his own therefore he learned how to make his body his instrument and now he’s recognized as one of the best Steppers and body percussionists in the industry today.
