[1]Khalid Abdulrahman (Arabic: خالد عبدالرحمن; born April 22, 1965) is a Saudi singer, actor, musician, poet, and songwriter.[2][1][3] He first published poetry under the pseudonym 'Night Dweller' (Arabic: مخاوي الليل) before revealing his true identity. Though Khalid did not want to be famous for his singing as he wanted to be for his poetry and retired for a month, but peers and fellow artists urged him to take up singing again.

He started singing in 1981. Some of his top songs are "Ahat" (Arabic: اهات), "Sarihini" (Arabic: صارحيني), "Sudiqini" (Arabic: صدقيني), "Khuberooh" (Arabic: خبروه), "Tedhkar" (Arabic :تذكار), and "Al-ata" (Arabic: العطا) and a lot more. He released an album Rouh Rouhey (Arabic: روح روحي) (Soul of my Soul) in 2008. It contains 8 songs. He continued his career with works such as Khalideat (Arabic: خالديات) in 2010, Thani (Arabic: ثاني) in 2013, La Yrooh Balk (Arabic: لا يروح بالك) in 2014, and Al Hob Alkabeer (Arabic: الحب الكبير) in 2016. His latest song is (تنتخي بي).
