    I love that he performed without an audience. I know the kind of anxiety that comes when you don't like feeling perceived, but you still have the urge to sing out. Want to be heard but not seen. But the empty seats speak to the message of the song and I'm here for the layers. I love his voice and I'm proud of him from watching him grow and change over the years. He's truly an artist.

    ‘Room Under The Stairs’ is an incredible album. Everything is done so beautifully.. from the vocals to the lyrics & production. Zayn really put his soul into this album, and what makes it even more special is that he wrote the lyrics of almost all the songs, and co-produced them too; very real, honest, and raw. So proud of him.

      His voice was so …fragile, tho towards the last verse he sounded more confident. I could be wrong but maybe he had a case of “nerves?” His studio acoustic version was hauntingly good, flawless, I’m sure in time he’ll grow in comfort getting back in the saddle and all. A+🎉

    Now I dont know much about Zayn. But Im sure this album has a story to tell if he wrote the lyrics. This performance was unexpected in my eyes. Effortlessly sung and played with such beautiful country, bluesy sound melodies. It is clear he deserves our every attention as he wants to leave that old persona behind, whatever that may have been while introducing his musicianship and vocals with soberness and a comprehension that he has arrived. And that, he has indeed. ❤ Bravo!

      This surely is his most mature album yet. I was never a "directioner," was already a mom at that time & never really paid any attention to them. I didn't really like Zayn's early solo stuff; just dived into his work after NIL. This album is the first one I can sincerely listen to multiple times a day, it's so organic & honest. Just loving this direction he's taken. This would certainly appeal to a more mature audience, I hope they'll adopt this to the radio stations. And I hope they'll stop talking about him as an "ex-one directioner". Harry has finally shaken that title, I hope Zayn will, too.

      Better late than never. Be prepared to be more blown away by his vocal dynamics with such control and modulation that has layers and tones. He can go from Terence Trent D'Arby (Sananda Mietra or something now) warm smoothness to the husky raspy edges of James Morrison and Chris Stapleton (who he's emulating on his latest album) to way way back to the early R&B funky grooves. I'm a great fan of the vocal masters of the early R&B in Sam Cooke, Otis Redding and the cool harmonies of the Philly soul bands (Stylistics, Blue Magic, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes) and silky, smooth lush melodies of groups like The Moments. Man, Zayn is the modern reincarnation of many of them.
      He got a lot of flak for covering Jimi Hendrix's "Angel," which Hendrix's estate commissioned Zayn personally for the re-issue of Angel in commemoration of Jimi. But the complaints were mainly from the purists and gatekeepers trying to protect their idea of the legacy of Jimi. Zayn was never going to threaten or touch Hendrix's legacy, as the instrumentals were still laid down by Hendrix of the original music.
      Anyhow, I thought it was a brilliant take and such a honor.
      Also be prepared to go on a wild ride. Zayn doesn't move in just one lane, though his true love and pocket sits in R&B. His first album might be post-Neo Soul (I'm not a musician so I could be shoehorning the genres), while his second is a trippy voyage across genres (even experimental jazz or alt-pop or indie). Though I like his third album, it's generally a miss among fans. Here in his fourth album, he further pushes his artistry into new territory with fusion of blues, country (maybe only in the acoustic instruments and his forced twang, "whiskey" singing), R&B/soul/funk to perhaps 2 songs of mainstream pop.
      ENJOY the journey. Welcome to the rabbit hole!!

    Zayn is not of this time. Soulful, introspective, reserved, powerful and evocative all at once

    No one who takes breath on this plane of existence can touch ZAYN'S performances, each one reaches beyond the former. A-m-a-z-a-y-n 💙
