Background

While talking about the song in an interview with Pigeons & Planes, Khalid expressed his passion of the song's beat:

"Location" is a song that came to me out of nowhere. From the first time I heard the beat play, the words flew out. Hearing the chords instantly took me the first stage of a relationship. Young love, man. It’s a crazy thing. I first started making music in the winter of 2015 so this is one of my most developed songs so far."[9]

Music video

The song's accompanying music video premiered on September 26, 2016, on Khalid's Vevo account on YouTube and was directed by Alex Di Marco. As of May 2023, the music video has over 552 million views.[10] The video opens with a screenshot of a desert and a hand on a steering wheel, then quickly showing how to pronounce Khalid (kuh-leed), Khalid is then seen sitting on top of a car performing the song and then walks around a desert and receives a message, which is a "Location", He gets in his car and drives to the Location, The location turns out to be a Swimming pool, Khalid is then seen back in his car, driving back to the pool when his Phone displays "Arrived", Khalid is grabbed by two women but breaks free and two men look at him strangely, The rest of the video just shows shots of Khalid in a desert , in a dark room around the swimming pool and driving around in his car
