“I want to thank all the fans and my team at RCA and First Access Entertainment for everything they have done to help me start my journey as a solo artist. It really is the beginning. I can’t believe that I have managed to achieve this as a solo artist.
I am very proud coming from Bradford achieving this in my home country. It’s mind-blowing to me. I don’t take the support I have received for granted. My life at 23 could have been very different.”
“You’re not always happy 24 hours a day. And that’s what I tried to get across. No matter what the situation we’re all human beings.” // xxx

When he performed newest single “LIKE I WOULD” on The Tonight Show last night, he hardly moved. Unlike pop stars before him, he didn’t have any choreography and didn’t whip out any impromptu moves — he simply grabbed onto the mic and delivered his song, with that impeccably versatile voice. But there was something about the way he emoted that commanded attention. The connection between artist and art made itself quite transparent onstage — and that, in and of itself, was enough. It’s the same feeling that permeates Mind of Mine as a whole. Just like Zayn didn’t need to be anyone else other than himself on stage, he doesn’t need to be anyone other than himself in his music, and that’s the kind of pop star we need.
