Sour Diesel: Zayn Malik's new number flirts with border between dance and rock musicAuthor : AZIndia News Desk
July 18 (AZINS) After teasing with an intense clip, Zayn Malik has debuted his latest single, titled 'Sour Diesel,' on Wednesday.
The audio for the latest track is available on all the streaming services and the singer's YouTube channel, but the video for the same is an Apple Music exclusive.
The music video shows that continuing the bad boy streak from his previously released tracks 'Entertainer' and 'Let me,' Zayn plays a hooded vigilante trying to be a hero.
The chorus for the song goes 'She bad, she bad, she bad, as the bleach-blonde vigilante steals a jewel from a mafia boss. The nighttime hero then gets caught and beaten within an inch of his life. But lo and behold, his partner in crime, who has beautiful eyes and hood and mask like that of DC hero Arrow, comes to his rescue.
The song starts with cymbals tinkling notes, gradually shifts from sounding like a lounge music number to groovy melody and ends up being a raging medley of bass and guitar riff.
'Sour Diesel' will be part of Zayn's yet untitled second album. His first album after One Direction split, Mind of Mine, was very well recieved by the fans and critics alike.
