It was written by Zayn Malik, Wells, Griffin, Rains, Emerson, Waviest and Kehlani Parrish, and produced by XYZ. It was released as the third single from the album on June 7, 2016.
Lyrically, "Wrong" is about "looking in the wrong place for love".[1]
Background
Zayn sung and wrote one of the songs, "Wrong", in collaboration with American R&B singer and songwriter Kehlani.[2]
According to Malik, he "reached out to her, played a couple of songs for her in L.A. and she's really cool, she liked the music, so she got in the studio within a couple of days, she gave me a song back that she wanted me to do, and we just got it done straight away."[3]
Malik originally wrote "Wrong" as a rap, which he then used to create lyrics for the song. "Wrong" incorporates elements from early 2000s R&B music.[4]
