Zayn Malik teams up with Snakehips for moody new single

Zayn Malik has previously worked with Oakland R&B singer Kehlani (on “wRoNg”) and once promised to team up alongside Tyler, the Creator (it never happened, but Tyler ended up remixing “Pillowtalk”), and it’s looking like those collaborations are continuing to increase. The R&B artist and Dazed cover star has teamed up with Snakeships for their latest single.

The British electronic electronic duo have been hard at work finishing off their debut full-length, which – amongst collaborations with Tinashe and Chance the Rapper – also features “Cruel”, a new song featuring Malik. It’s a moody and atmospheric track, but it’s also got a loose dance groove.
