1.) Zayn Malik is best known as one of the founding members of the boy-band-of-a-generation One Direction. Born Zain Javadd Malik on January 12, 1993 in the working-class town of Bradford in West Yorkshire, England, Zayn honed his vocal talents and stage command at a young age. Growing up as a mixed race Pakistani-English Muslim in a postindustrial British town presented some difficulties, which resulted in a number of primary school changes. His talents were eventually fostered at Tong High School, where he delved into performing arts and stage production, even starring as Danny Zuko in the school's production of Grease. In 2010, he auditioned for The X Factor but was eliminated (along with his future One Direction bandmates, who also auditioned solo). The quintet was later brought back as a group and Simon Cowell dubbed them One Direction. Despite finishing in third place, their popularity exploded and would not slow their trajectory until the very end.
After the show, Cowell immediately signed them to his label, Syco Records, kicking off a craze that hadn't been seen since the turn of the millennium with the Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC. From 2011 to 2014, One Direction released an album each year, each one more successful than the last. Their fourth album, Four, would turn out to be the last with Zayn. In March 2015, while the band was on the On the Road Again Tour, Malik abruptly parted ways with One Direction a week after his final appearance with the group in Hong Kong. Citing stress and a desire for a simpler life out of the spotlight, Malik later revealed that he simply wanted to make music that he could listen to and enjoy.
Striking out on his own, he signed with RCA Records and moved to Los Angeles, where he began working on his solo effort with Naughty Boy (Beyoncé, Sam Smith). The two soon parted and Malik turned to Frank Ocean collaborator James "Malay" Ho for production help. His debut single, "Pillowtalk," was released in late January 2016, debuted at number one on the Billboard charts, and featured a distinctly more adult-themed alt-R&B sound, similar to the Weeknd and Miguel. His full-length debut, Mind of Mine, was released in early 2016 and topped the Billboard 200 chart. Late that year, he returned with the single "I Don't Wanna Live Forever," a collaboration with Taylor Swift and Bleachers' Jack Antonoff that appeared on the soundtrack to Fifty Shades Darker. Second studio album, "Icarus Falls," was released in December 2018. The album contains 27 tracks including six previous singles he has been released. His song with Sia, "Dusk Till Dawn" and and his song with PartyNextDoor, "Still Got Time" were initially only in Japanese edition of the record. However, in August 2020 these songs were added to the tracklist in streaming services internationally.
In September 2020, Zayn released "Better" which is the lead single of his third album "Nobody Is Listening" . Later, on January, one week before the album release, Zayn released "Vibez" as second single from the album. One week later Zayn released the album. Zayn described this album as "his most personal project".
Malik has now been released by RCA Records and is an free agent he remains at his home in Pennsylvania recording music.
2.) Zayn (arabic, refers to inner beauty) is an instrumental quartet from Croatia formed in 2011 by Miran Kapelac (bass), Bojan Gatalica (guitar), Marko Dragičević (guitar) and Alen Rožman (drums).

Zayn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you struggle to find the light
When you just try to find your way
But you just can't find the time
I'll come for you
You know that I'll save you
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
When you need somebody
When you need someone
When you need somebody
When you need someone
When the water's just too deep
Getting chased by the shark
When the pressure's just too much
And you feel it in your heart
I'll come for you
You know that I'll save you
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
(Need somebody) when you need somebody
(Need somebody) when you need someone
When you need somebody
When you need someone
And who's right?
Let me know
I'll be there
I'll be close
It's your fear
That we won't
If this dies
Be my ghost
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
Who you gonna call, gonna call?
When you need somebody
When you need someone
When you need somebody
When you need someone
When you need somebody
When you need someone
Zayn's "wHo" appears to be a song about being there for someone when they need you the most. It seems to be about being that one person who can always come through for them, even when others can't or won't. The chorus consists of the repeated question, "Who you gonna call, gonna call?" which suggests that, in moments of need, the singer is the one that the listener should reach out to.
The verse about standing in the dark and struggling to find the light might represent emotional turmoil or difficult times, and the chorus acts as a reminder that the singer will be there to offer support. The lines about water being too deep and being chased by a shark could also be seen as symbols of hardship or danger, and once again, the singer assures the listener that they will be there to help. The lyrics culminate in the final verse, which suggests that fear may be what holds people back, but the singer is willing to stick around even if the relationship ends ("be my ghost").
In summary, "wHo" is a song that encourages its listeners to rely on the singer for help when they need it most, even in the midst of fear or danger.

If this dies, be my ghost
If our relationship ends, I'll still cherish the memories and keep them alive
When you need somebody
When you need help and support from someone else
When you need someone
When you need a friend or companion to rely on
