Zayn has received several accolades, including an American Music Award and an MTV Video Music Award. He is the only artist to have won the Billboard Music Award for New Artist of the Year twice, receiving it once as a member of One Direction in 2013 and again in 2017 as a soloist.
Zayn cites urban music as his main musical influence, having grown up predominantly with R&B, hip hop, and reggae, as well as bop and Bollywood music. He was influenced by his father’s urban records, including those by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, R. Kelly, Usher, Donell Jones, Prince, 2Pac, Biggie, Gregory Isaacs, Yellowman and Chris Brown.
Hire Zayn for your special event or occasion.
Zayn originally auditioned to be a solo R&B singer before joining One Direction. His R&B singing style stood out from the band’s pop rock style; he later cited creative differences as another reason for leaving the band.
His solo work leans towards R&B, alternative R&B, and electropop, and occasionally other genres, such as electro-R&B dance music (“Like I Would”), hip-hop (“Pillowtalk” remix), neo-soul (“Truth”), reggae (“Do Something Good”), and Qawwali ghazal (“Flower”, where he uses Qawwali vocal techniques such as vocal elisions and warbling).
Zayn possesses a wide tenor vocal range and is known for his belting and falsetto techniques and high notes.
He was regarded by Jamieson Cox in Time as One Direction‘s strongest singer. Brad Nelson of The Guardian wrote, “He was one of the more accomplished vocalists of the group, exhibiting the widest range. He mostly inhabited a silvery, full-bodied tenor, similar to, but more sharp and precise, than Harry Styles‘ smoky warble”, asserting that his departure would leave “a void of vocal agility”.
Forbes estimates Zayn‘s social media following across Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and Pandora to be more than 50 million users. His fandom is called Zquad.
His discography includes four studio albums, one mixtape, twenty-six singles (including five as a featured artist), seven promotional singles, and twenty music videos.
