    Thelma Plum has smashed her Like A Version performance, fresh off dropping her debut album Better In Blak today.

    She chose to perform Khalid's Young, Dumb and Broke, with a bit of Lil Nas X's Old Town Road thrown in for good measure.

    Thelma explained why she chose to combine these two songs to hosts Ben and Liam, and there's a simple reason.

    “I just love this song,” says Plum.

    “I think [Khalid] is a real ledge. I actually didn’t know his music until he came to Australia a couple of years ago and I just saw this photo of him wearing the Aboriginal flag t-shirt and I was like, 'Okay, okay.'

    "And then obviously listened to his music and he’s just beautiful. And he seems like a really nice guy. That’s how I choose the music I love – he seems like a really nice guy.”

    And why did she throw in some Lil Nas X? “Why not? [Old Town Road] is just such a good song and everybody knows it, like, everyone in the world… Also Lil Nas is just so great – he’s wonderful. Seems like a really top bloke.”

    She also performed her huge Back In Blak, capping off what has been a huge week for Thelma.

    Her album, which features Paul McCartney and Dave Le'Aupepe, is out now.
