This month though, Zayn surprised fans when he appeared to turn of his former friend and musical collaborator with a series of tweets.
By signing on the dotted lines of RCA records contract paper, Malik has joined the league of Alicia Keys, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Kesha and Miley Cyrus, who also have been associated with the brand.
Simon Cowell helped Zayn Malik start his solo career at RCA Records. “They are excited about working with him, and I am sure whatever they release together will be special”. Considering One Direction’s insanely hectic, never-ending schedule, it was understandable at the time.
Meanwhile, Zayn’s former bandmate Louis Tomlinson threatened to further stir up his argument with the producer this week.
Edwards also explained how they both knew it would be “massive”, explaining, “Everyone would be talking about it, so I prepared myself for that”.
It is thought the pair fell out when some of Zayn’s music was leaked online – with the 22-year-old blaming Naughty for putting the track out there.
“He wrote at the time: “‘My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined.
According to Billboard, Zayn is now working with Frank Ocean’s creative partner, Malay, who produced Ocean’s critically acclaimed Channel Orange.
The news comes after after Malik announced his departure from the band on March 25, and after previous allusions to a solo album release in 2016. Malik tweeted that now that he has gone solo, fans will be able to hear some of his “real” music. Good for you, Zayn!
