Zayn Malik solo track leaks online

It’s only three months since Zayn Malik broke teen hearts everywhere and announced he was leaving One Direction, but more of his solo material is already appearing online.

Malik’s cover of Rae Sremmurd’s 2014 track No Type, featuring British rapper MIC Righteous, found its way on to the internet yesterday (June 15), and with its moody synths and soulful vocals, it’s not too dissimilar from the sound of a certain gay-pleasing Jonas brother.

The leak comes after producer Naughty Boy shared a demo of a track he’d recorded with the 22 year-old just days after he announced his exit from the 1D juggernaut, which was soon taken down after backlash from fans.

This time round thought, the frequent Zayn collaborator denied any involvement in the song’s release, putting it down to a stolen hardrive, and telling fans to wait for the real version, teasing: “You won’t be disappointed.”

that had nothing to do with me or Zayn, something was stolen from the hard drive that had nothing to do with the rapper involved
