Zayn debuts his first solo single Pillowtalk
- Published
Almost a year after leaving One Direction Zayn Malik's released his first single, Pillowtalk.
Complete with bleached blonde hair and supermodel girlfriend Gigi Hadid, the song's video involves the pair getting pretty close.
The singer had hinted that he wanted to adopt more of an R&B sound, and he hasn't disappointed.
He'd described the song to the Sunday Times as "so pure, so dirty and raw".
"I think I'm pretty black and white about what it's about," he said.
"Everybody has sex, and it's something people wanna hear about.
"It's part of everybody's life, a very big part of life! And you don't wanna sweep it under the carpet. It has to be talked about."
It's why the hashtag #pillowtalk is trending.
Even among the most diehard of 1D fans, it seems a lot of the initial reaction on the Twitter was positive.
