Malay-co-produced fifth record also gets full tracklisting and UK tour dates

ZAYN has dropped 'Sideways', a new track taken from upcoming fifth studio album 'KONNAKOL', due 17th April.

Co-produced by ZAYN and Malay, who collaborated together on both 'Mind of Mine' and 'Icarus Falls', the album will arrive through Mercury Records/Island Records UK.

The artwork features a snow leopard, a symbol rooted in South Asian culture, reflecting the record's connection to ZAYN's heritage. 'Sideways' follows the previously released 'Die For Me'.

A run of UK shows forming part of The KONNAKOL Tour has been confirmed, beginning in Manchester and wrapping up at The O2 in London.

The tour will also take in stops across the globe, including Los Angeles, Mexico City, São Paulo and Miami. ZAYN recently wrapped up his first Las Vegas residency, during which he performed unreleased material from the forthcoming record.
