Kehlani delivered another epic performance of their award-winning song "Folded" at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.

On Thursday night, March 26, the California native took over the stage at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles for the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards. Kehlani belted her soothing lyrics while surrounded by dancers who literally folded clothes in a laundromat. They glided across the stage and joined her dancers as they closed out with a smooth dance routine. After her set, Kehlani accepted the award for "R&B Song of the Year" from NE-YO and some of their biggest fans.

"This is really cool," Kehlani said while trying to catch their breath, "I just want to say thank you to everybody who helped me write this record... Thank you to my fans. I really wanna say how through all the years, it's been a really long time I've been doing this, and my fans have never left my side when things didn't go the way that they thought it should for me. This year I'm having with this record leading the way it feels like a win for all of us."

Kehlani's performance comes a few weeks after they announced the plans for their self-titled album. It will arrive on their birthday, April 24, and holds 17 songs, including "Folded" and "Out The Window." Kehlani's been plotting their follow-up to Crash for quite some time. The project will explore themes of love, transformation, vulnerability, and growth while being completely true to herself. Now, following the success of their two lead singles, the California native is ready to begin the next chapter of their career.

Congratulations to Kehlani for all their success!
