Zayn Malik has set the Internet on fire again after he released snippets of new music ‘Love Like This’ on Instagram. The fans are going berserk, as the pop icon blacked out his entire Instagram page and now has posted three teaser clips for what seems like an epic takeover of the charts in the near future.
Read Inside
About Zayn Malik
Former One-Direction member and current worldwide star, Zayn Malik has been carving out a niche for himself in the music industry. The singer often decides to stay low-key and is known for being extremely private. He’s half Pakistani half British and was raised Muslim, which he currently chooses not to identify as.
Zayn had been a victim of racism and Islamophobia in his childhood and during his career in One Direction. The singer lives on a farm at Bucks and shares a daughter with his former ex-girlfriend and supermodel Gigi Hadid, Khai. He was last linked to Selena Gomez after they started following each other on Instagram, suddenly. However, Selena put all rumors to rest as she claimed she is single in a now-viral TikTok, and they appear to have unfollowed each other now.

His Previous Projects
He is also known for his incredible vocal range, and his hits include “Pillowtalk”, “Dusk Till Dawn”, “Let Me”, from his projects Mind of Mine and Icarus Falls, and has also contributed to multiple movie soundtracks, his most iconic contributions being “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” for the 50 Shades of Grey movie, on which he collaborated with Taylor Swift and A Whole New World for the Aladdin soundtrack, on which he sang with Zhavia Ward. His last album, Nobody is Listening, released in 2021, went down generally well with the critics and rose to 17 on the UK Albums Chart. Zayn also released his own fashion line, PAYNT by Zayn, which features some of his own artwork.
Zayn Malik New Music
After sharing a heartwarming picture taken by his daughter at the farm, where he is seen watering plants, with the caption “Baba Farmer”, he shared snippets of his music on Instagram. Zayn has now blacked out his entire feed, besides the three posts that are now pinned on his profile.
An Instagram blackout is generally indicative of a new era in music, and this seems to have been just that. In the videos he posted, Zayn is seen dapper in a leather jacket, as he snaps on his helmet, smokes on rooftops, and walks among tall buildings.
Zayn has captioned the last of his teaser videos as “in the zone” on YouTube. Fans are extremely excited for this release, with Zayn trending on Twitter for days and people speculating that this might be a huge hit. This is Zayn’s first release with Mercury Records after his previous record deal with RCA Records ended.
Ryan Tedder, the face of OneRepublic had previously also confirmed that he was working on new music with Zayn – which he stated on the Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp podcast. Mercury executives have also said Zayn’s vision and direction for this album is a completely fresh one and not anything like he has released before.
Zayn and Liam’s Interaction
Liam Payne, Zayn’s former One Direction bandmate, also surprisingly commented on the latter’s post, writing “This sounds big already”, while the singer responded with “Appreciate it, bro, thanks for the love”. This comes after a long series of speculations after Payne went on Logan Paul’s podcast and spoke about his hard feelings with the rest of the band and how he is at odds with one of them, specifically – and fans naming Zayn as the most likely member.
The former also brought up the singer’s breakup with Gigi Hadid and the accusations that had been laid at him. Zayn’s abrupt departure from One Direction had been on a cold note, however, tensions seem to have unfrozen over time as the members have shown support for each other in multiple instances. A number of fans are hyped about this interaction, commenting, “ZIAM INTERACTION BELOW HERE”, “ZAYN REPLIED TO LIAM OMG” and the like.
Zayn And ZQUAD
A month ago, Zayn had thanked his fans on Twitter, in a rare tweet on the platform. The artist wrote, “I would like to say thank you to everyone that has supported me throughout this amazing journey, especially to my fans who I owe my life to. Love and adore you and see everything you do for me,” which the fans receive with much glee and excitement. Zayn’s fans, better known as ZQUAD, are extremely protective of the artist, and they have previously called out RCA for not doing enough to promote his music.
It is to be seen how this new era turns out for the artist, and whether he breaks new records with his music.
