The lesbian community is busy speculating that Kehlani might be dating someone new, and they might just be onto something.
East London musician kwn is the purported object of Kehlani’s affections, and after a recent collaboration, the sapphics’ spidey senses are all a-tingle. The two recently collaborated on a remix of kwn’s song Worst Behavior, feeding us a sensual, intimate Valentine’s treat. The video starts in classic R&B fashion as kwn begins to sing, delivering heavy eye contact while resting against a black car in a dimly lit warehouse.

Our newsletter will bring you the pulse of queer culture, from the tastemakers to the groundbreakers.
The lyrics aren’t anything short of explicit in detailing lesbian intimacy, and it might just be the newest sizzling lesbian anthem.
Kehlani shows around a minute and thirty seconds into the video, singing and seductively dancing on the other side of the car. Even though they’re singing in their usual soft tone, Kehlani’s verse exuded eager yearning and candidly expressed what a perfect night of passion looks like for them.
You’d think some intense longing gazes at the camera and suggestive dancing against the car was as steamy as it could get, but that’s not the only thing that has the lesbian community’s collective eyebrows raised.
At the end of the video, kwn and Kehlani partake in a kiss, and it almost passes as fun music video behavior. However, it’s not a simple kiss: it’s hot, fervent, and long. The two lock lips for at least minute as kwn grasps Kehlani’s neck passionately, kissing and caressing them as the camera pulls away.
It’s not the first time the two have gotten hot and heavy during a performance. Last September during Kehlani’s Crash World Tour, kwn showed up as a special guest, and the chemistry between the two was off the charts.
We don’t know if the rumors are true, but the chemistry between kwn and Kehlani is spicy and we love to see it. New power couple incoming?
