'''''Mind of Mine''''' is the debut studio album by [[Zayn Malik]]. It was released on March 25, 2016, a year to the day he left [[One Direction]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/sanityonline/status/692943151892406274 Sanity Confirmation Tweet]</ref> The album debuted at #1 in both the USA and UK. Zayn was the first British solo artist to have his first album debut atop the charts in the US.
  
  +
Primarily R&B and alternative R&B, the album blends elements from a number of genres, including pop, folk, dub, soul, funk, electronic, Qawwali, hip hop, reggae, classical and soft rock, among others. The album was preceded by the release of three singles: "[[Pillowtalk]]" (which debuted at number one in a number of international charts, including the [[UK]] Singles Chart and the [[US]] ''Billboard'' Hot 100), "[[Like I Would]]" and "[[Wrong]]", featuring [[Kehlani]].
  +
  +
''Mind of Mine'' debuted at number one in the [[United Kingdom]], [[United States]], Argentina, [[Australia]], [[Canada]], [[New Zealand]], Norway, Portugal, Sweden and Taiwan, with Zayn becoming the first UK male artist to debut at number one in both the UK and US with his debut album.

Following Zayn Malik's five-year stint with English-Irish band [[One Direction]], he quit the band after signing off from the band's ''[[On the Road Again Tour]]'' for an indefinite period six days prior due to stress.

On July 29 2015, Zayn tweeted a photo of himself, signing his album contract with new label RCA Records. He would regularly post photos of himself in the recording studio, while his producers uploaded short preview videos of his songs to their own social media accounts. From November 2015 onwards, Zayn gave several interviews with various music magazines where he talked about the recording process, his musical influences and what the album would be about. He stated "Life experiences have been the [main] influences for the album...stuff that I've been through, especially in the last five years".
  
   
  +
Shortly after, Malik began working on solo material. Zayn eventually went on to meet James "[[Malay]]" Ho, who would become his album's main collaborator. On 29 July 2015, Malik shared a photo on social media of his official signing with [[RCA Records|RCA Records.]] Throughout the rest of 2015, Zayn gave interviews with several music magazines, during which he spoke about his debut solo studio album and revealed part of the track list.
−
Furthermore, he explained his reasons for leaving One Direction: "There was never any room for me to experiment creatively in the band." He originally auditioned to be a solo singer with Mario's "Let Me Love You" in 2010, before being briefly eliminated then ultimately placed in the spontaneously formed boy band. As the band developed a distinctly pop-rock sound, Zayn felt the music was ultimately too different from the style he preferred to sing and write in. He stated, "I don't really know what my style is yet. I’m kind of just showing what my influences are." The album was influenced by the music that he grew up with, primarily his father's urban music records from R&B artists like R. Kelly, Usher, Donell Jones, and Prince, as well as Bollywood music.

Zayn told Billboard Magazine,'' ''"Once they [the fans] hear it, I feel like they will understand me a little bit more. For 10 years, this album has been in my brain, and it's just been there, sat with me, needing to be out." In his first solo on-camera interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music's Beats 1, Zayn revealed ''Mind of Mine'' as the album's title. The album includes 18 songs, though Zayn wrote on a total of 46 tracks. The sole vocal feature on the album comes from R&B singer Kehlani, on a duet called "[[Wrong]]".

The Urdu song "[[Intermission: Flower]]" was influenced by his upbringing as a British-Pakistani Muslim. Referencing the recording, producer Malay stated that Zayn "knows how to sing like that, and he’s always been able to do it, but he just never took it that seriously" until one day he said Zayn "just picked up the mic and tracked that whole thing basically live, in one take." Malay said he “was just blown away" and "didn’t know he could sing like that," and that "he told me he was in a super spiritual place, and that the saying is something one of his family members had told him that had always stuck to him." Malay said the session was more like jazz music "where a singer will have a concept or a melody and then the rest of it is just improvised."
  
   
  +
Due to the band's musical direction, Zayn was unable to sing or write the kind of R&B music he had originally pursued before joining the band. He elaborated, "If I would sing a hook or a verse slightly R&B, or slightly myself, it would always be recorded 50 times until there was a straight version that was pop, generic" and that "Whenever I would suggest something, it was like it didn’t fit us. There was just a general conception that the management already had of what they want for the band, and I just wasn’t convinced with what we were selling. I wasn’t 100 percent behind the music. It wasn’t me. It was music that was already given to us". He told ''[[Complex]]'' that "It was about denying the authenticity of who I was, and what I enjoyed about music, and why I got into it."

The album's cover art was revealed on ''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'' on February 17, 2016 where Zayn also premiered the album track "[[It's You|iT's YoU]]" in his first live television performance as a solo artist. The cover, a photo of Zayn as a child, drew comparisons to Lil Wayne's album ''Tha Carter III'', as the image has been Photoshopped to include Zayn's current tattoos (Wayne's also included his tattoos and piercings). Zayn addressed the issue stating "my ideas have been with me a long time." Mind of Mine was made available for pre-order on February 25, 2016 along with the digital release of the promotional single "[[It's You]]" and the official music video – the latter of which was an Apple Music exclusive. The same day Zayn also released a "[[Pillowtalk]]" remix featuring Lil Wayne himself. Zayn raps for the first time on the record. On 10 March 2016, Zayn released the song "[[Like I Would]]", confirming it would be his second official single on the album.<ref>Malik, Zayn.

On March 25, 2016, Zayn premiered a music video for album track BeFoUr, filmed in Manchester, [[United Kingdom]]. The video bares some resemblance to One Direction's Midnight Memories, in that it documents Zayn and his friends experiencing a night on the town together. Mind of Mine was also released worldwide on the 25th, exactly one year after he exited One Direction. Zayn has stated the album release date was not intentional, it simply fell on the same day by coincidence. Zayn also performed "[[Like I Would]]" on Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show.

"[[Befour]]" was described by ''Rolling Stone'' as "smooth R&B" and ''NME'' described it as an "R&B ballad". ''Music Times'' said it combines R&B, synthpop and soul. ''AXS'' calls it an "experimental and assertive slice of R&B" with "personal lyrics addressing his past and detractors all at once." ''New Statesman'' says it is "tightly-constructed and slickly-produced" and includes one of Malik's vocal hallmarks, a "long and impossibly high note." ''Billboard'' states that "Zayn channels his inner Justin Timberlake" with the song.

"Flower" is an experimental Pakistani Qawwali-style ghazal interlude that Malik sings in Urdu, backed by Malay's folk guitar playing. Qawwali is a style of music associated with Islamic culture. Malik used Qawwali-style vocal techniques for the track, including vocal elisions and warbling. "Truth" is an experimental neo-soultrack. "She" is a self-described "party tune" that is "not as intense lyrically" as some of the other cuts. "Fool for You" is a Beatles-esque pop ballad, which Malik says was influenced by John Lennon in particular. "My Ways" is sung from his father's perspective.

The album has received favorable views from the music critics. Mikael Wood of ''Los Angeles Times'' praised the record, describing it as a "moody, deeply textured R&B album with vibe to spare" that showcases "the effort and inspiration that went into it" and establishes "Zayn's new identity" as a "serious" and "legit musician." He notes that Malik deals "in intricately voiced" chords and the album "emphasizes signs of complexity" such as "the elaborate synth swirls" in "[[She]]" and Malay's "careful layering of soft-funk guitar lines" in "[[Borderz]]," and that even "when Zayn strips down the music for "[[Fool For You|Fool for You]]," a relatively spare piano ballad, he fills the space with ornate vocal runs, flexing a skill for which there was never much use in 1D." He also praised "[[Intermission: Flower|Flower]]" as "a lovely vocal melody sung in Urdu", and noted the influence of Frank Ocean in "[[It's You]]", Miguel in "[[Truth]]", the xx in "[[Drunk]]", and Prince in "the whole project" from "Zayn's falsetto to his stylized renderings of song titles". Wood stated that "you're unlikely to hear a more detailed album this year, and certainly not from whichever of Zayn's former bandmates goes solo next."

Jon Caramanica of ''The New York Times'' described it as a "sweaty, smooth R&B" album, noting that Malik successfully "opts for a low-octane approach" throughout the record, from "part mellow soul burner and part post-Coldplay melancholia" in "[[It's You]]" to "R&B delivered under a dark cloud" in "[[Drunk]]". He also praised the Urdu love song "[[Flower]]" as the album's "most plainly besotted song", with some "of the most impassioned vocals" on the record, and compared "[[Fool For You|Fool for You]]" to Billy Joel and Jeffrey Osborne, "[[TIO|Tio]]" to The Weeknd "with vocals like buried shrieks clamoring for freedom", the "1980s-esque" songs "[[Lucozade]]" and "[[Rear View]]" to British R&B artists Lisa Stansfield and Rick Astley, and the "sensual" duet "[[Wrong]]" (featuring [[Kehlani Parrish|Kehlani]]) to Justin Timberlake's early solo work.

The album has received favorable views from the music critics. Mikael Wood of ''Los Angeles Times'' praised the record, describing it as a "moody, deeply textured R&B album with vibe to spare" that showcases "the effort and inspiration that went into it" and establishes "Zayn's new identity" as a "serious" and "legit musician." He notes that Malik deals "in intricately voiced" chords and the album "emphasizes signs of complexity" such as "the elaborate synth swirls" in "[[She]]" and Malay's "careful layering of soft-funk guitar lines" in "[[Borderz]]," and that even "when Zayn strips down the music for "[[Fool For You|Fool for You]]," a relatively spare piano ballad, he fills the space with ornate vocal runs, flexing a skill for which there was never much use in 1D." He also praised "[[Intermission: Flower|Flower]]" as "a lovely vocal melody sung in Urdu", and noted the influence of Frank Ocean in "[[It's You]]", Miguel in "[[Truth]]", the xx in "[[Drunk]]", and Prince in "the whole project" from "Zayn's falsetto to his stylized renderings of song titles". Wood stated that "you're unlikely to hear a more detailed album this year, and certainly not from whichever of Zayn's former bandmates goes solo next."
   
  ⚫
Jon Caramanica of ''The New York Times'' described it as a "sweaty, smooth R&B" album, noting that Malik successfully "opts for a low-octane approach" throughout the record, from "part mellow soul burner and part post-Coldplay melancholia" in "[[It's You]]" to "R&B delivered under a dark cloud" in "[[Drunk]]". He also praised the Urdu love song "[[Flower]]" as the album's "most plainly besotted song", with some "of the most impassioned vocals" on the record, and compared "[[Fool For You|Fool for You]]" to Billy Joel and Jeffrey Osborne, "[[TIO|Tio]]" to The Weeknd "with vocals like buried shrieks clamoring for freedom", the "1980s-esque" songs "[[Lucozade]]" and "[[Rear View]]" to British R&B artists Lisa Stansfield and Rick Astley, and the "sensual" duet "[[Wrong]]" (featuring [[Kehlani Parrish|Kehlani]]) to Justin Timberlake's early solo work.

Revision as of 20:42, 18 December 2018

Mind of Mine is the debut studio album by Zayn Malik. It was released on March 25, 2016, a year to the day he left One Direction.[1]

Primarily R&B and alternative R&B, the album blends elements from a number of genres, including pop, folk, dub, soul, funk, electronic, Qawwali, hip hop, reggae, classical and soft rock, among others. The album was preceded by the release of three singles: "Pillowtalk" (which debuted at number one in a number of international charts, including the UK Singles Chart and the US Billboard Hot 100), "Like I Would" and "Wrong", featuring Kehlani.

Mind of Mine debuted at number one in the United Kingdom, United States, Argentina, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Sweden and Taiwan, with Zayn becoming the first UK male artist to debut at number one in both the UK and US with his debut album.

Background

Following Zayn Malik's five-year stint with English-Irish band One Direction, he quit the band after signing off from the band's On the Road Again Tour for an indefinite period six days prior due to stress.

Shortly after, Malik began working on solo material. Zayn eventually went on to meet James "Malay" Ho, who would become his album's main collaborator. On 29 July 2015, Malik shared a photo on social media of his official signing with RCA Records. Throughout the rest of 2015, Zayn gave interviews with several music magazines, during which he spoke about his debut solo studio album and revealed part of the track list.

Furthermore, he explained his reasons for leaving One Direction: "there was never any room for me to experiment creatively in the band." Malik originally auditioned to be a solo R&B singer with Mario's "Let Me Love You" in 2010 before becoming part of One Direction, but with the band headed in a pop-rock direction.

He stated, "I don't really know what my style is yet. I’m kind of just showing what my influences are." The album was influenced by the music that he grew up with, primarily his father's urban music records from R&B artists like R. Kelly, Usher, Donell Jones, and Prince, as well as Bollywood music.

Due to the band's musical direction, Zayn was unable to sing or write the kind of R&B music he had originally pursued before joining the band. He elaborated, "If I would sing a hook or a verse slightly R&B, or slightly myself, it would always be recorded 50 times until there was a straight version that was pop, generic" and that "Whenever I would suggest something, it was like it didn’t fit us. There was just a general conception that the management already had of what they want for the band, and I just wasn’t convinced with what we were selling. I wasn’t 100 percent behind the music. It wasn’t me. It was music that was already given to us". He told Complex that "It was about denying the authenticity of who I was, and what I enjoyed about music, and why I got into it."

Zayn told Billboard Magazine, "Once they [the fans] hear it, I feel like they will understand me a little bit more. For 10 years, this album has been in my brain, and it's just been there, sat with me, needing to be out." In his first solo on-camera interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music's Beats 1, Zayn revealed Mind of Mine as the album's title.

The album's cover art was revealed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on February 17, 2016 where Zayn also premiered the album track "iT's YoU" in his first live television performance as a solo artist. The cover, a photo of Zayn as a child, drew comparisons to Lil Wayne's album Tha Carter III, as the image has been Photoshopped to include Zayn's current tattoos (Wayne's also included his tattoos and piercings). Zayn addressed the issue stating "my ideas have been with me a long time."

Mind of Mine was made available for pre-order on February 25, 2016 along with the digital release of the promotional single "It's You" and the official music video – the latter of which was an Apple Music exclusive. The same day Zayn also released a "Pillowtalk" remix featuring Lil Wayne himself. Zayn raps for the first time on the record. On 10 March 2016, Zayn released the song "Like I Would", confirming it would be his second official single on the album.[2] The lyrics of the album were leaked three days before the initial release of it, on 22nd March, 2016.

On March 25, 2016, Zayn premiered a music video for album track "Befour", filmed in Manchester, United Kingdom. The video bares some resemblance to One Direction's "Midnight Memories". Mind of Mine was also released worldwide on the 25th, exactly one year after he exited One Direction. Zayn has stated the album release date was not intentional, it simply fell on the same day by coincidence.

On June, 11 the album reached one billion streams on Spotify.

Music Style

"Pillowtalk" is a downtempo electronic R&B slow jam, leaning towards alternative R&B. "Like I Would" was described by Billboard as a "dancefloor-ready R&B jam" and The Independent described it as "electro-R&B". "It's You" is an slow R&B intimate ballad that showcases his falsetto as he sings the song's title during the chorus.

"Befour" was described by Rolling Stone as "smooth R&B" and NME described it as an "R&B ballad". Music Times said it combines R&B, synthpop and soul. AXS calls it an "experimental and assertive slice of R&B" with "personal lyrics addressing his past and detractors all at once." New Statesman says it is "tightly-constructed and slickly-produced" and includes one of Malik's vocal hallmarks, a "long and impossibly high note." Billboard states that "Zayn channels his inner Justin Timberlake" with the song.

"Flower" is an experimental Pakistani Qawwali-style ghazal interlude that Malik sings in Urdu, backed by Malay's folk guitar playing. Qawwali is a style of music associated with Islamic culture. Malik used Qawwali-style vocal techniques for the track, including vocal elisions and warbling. "Truth" is an experimental neo-soultrack. "She" is a self-described "party tune" that is "not as intense lyrically" as some of the other cuts. "Fool for You" is a Beatles-esque pop ballad, which Malik says was influenced by John Lennon in particular. "My Ways" is sung from his father's perspective.

Singles

  • Pillowtalk
    The album's lead single, "Pillowtalk", was released along with its accompanying music video on January 29, 2016, with favorable reviews from music critics and was a worldwide #1 hit.

As of September 2017, the music video has received 750+ million views on youtube.

Reception

The album has received favorable views from the music critics. Mikael Wood of Los Angeles Times praised the record, describing it as a "moody, deeply textured R&B album with vibe to spare" that showcases "the effort and inspiration that went into it" and establishes "Zayn's new identity" as a "serious" and "legit musician." He notes that Malik deals "in intricately voiced" chords and the album "emphasizes signs of complexity" such as "the elaborate synth swirls" in "She" and Malay's "careful layering of soft-funk guitar lines" in "Borderz," and that even "when Zayn strips down the music for "Fool for You," a relatively spare piano ballad, he fills the space with ornate vocal runs, flexing a skill for which there was never much use in 1D." He also praised "Flower" as "a lovely vocal melody sung in Urdu", and noted the influence of Frank Ocean in "It's You", Miguel in "Truth", the xx in "Drunk", and Prince in "the whole project" from "Zayn's falsetto to his stylized renderings of song titles". Wood stated that "you're unlikely to hear a more detailed album this year, and certainly not from whichever of Zayn's former bandmates goes solo next."

Jon Caramanica of The New York Times described it as a "sweaty, smooth R&B" album, noting that Malik successfully "opts for a low-octane approach" throughout the record, from "part mellow soul burner and part post-Coldplay melancholia" in "It's You" to "R&B delivered under a dark cloud" in "Drunk". He also praised the Urdu love song "Flower" as the album's "most plainly besotted song", with some "of the most impassioned vocals" on the record, and compared "Fool for You" to Billy Joel and Jeffrey Osborne, "Tio" to The Weeknd "with vocals like buried shrieks clamoring for freedom", the "1980s-esque" songs "Lucozade" and "Rear View" to British R&B artists Lisa Stansfield and Rick Astley, and the "sensual" duet "Wrong" (featuring Kehlani) to Justin Timberlake's early solo work.
