Video Premiere: ZAYN - PILLOWTALK

ZAYN, formerly of One Direction, just dropped his solo debut PILLOWTALK and it's a good one! Where numerous band members have bombed this feels like a solid release. It's contemporary, evoking vibes from The Weeknd, Ariana Grande and a lil' Blood Orange and a cool listen. The vocals are hot and strong + soaring plus really engaging. The music + production is equally solid and screams hit. The video, starring Z's GF Gigi Hadid, is arty and manages to show naked bodies without being overly exploitive. All in all, good stuff! His debut Mind of Mind is scheduled for a spring 2016 release.
