Compared to black artists like Normani who is constantly ridiculed. 'Pillowtalk,' his rabidly anticipated first. Zayn Malik is currently sitting pretty on the most buzzed-about release of 2016. Its really tragic the amount of support and sympathy zayn receives. He’s been busy with the producer behind M.I.A’s Borders. Why hasn’t the media called him out for his behaviour? Why has he been given chance after chance by his record company for all these years, when their has been black artists with far more talent than him, who actually push and care about their artistry have been dropped by RCA for doing far less.
Zayn has been toxic for years even whilst he was in 1 direction I read stories of him being an abusive bastard. What black artist do you know that has been protected as much as zayn for similar or even worst behaviour? Zayn Malik was considered One Directions 'Bradford bad boy': The brooding, quiet, edgy member of the boy band. But yet he has been cuddled, protected, and somehow shielded from accountability for his horrible behaviour for years now. Zayn has decent looks, mediocre talent, lacks personality, horrible attitude, lazy, refuses to tour to promote his own music and a bad drug habit. Zayn Malik may be averse to fulfilling his performing commitments, but the former One Direction star isn’t squandering all his opportunities. However that still doesn’t mean that his association with whiteness hasn’t greatly benefited him. Yes I am aware that he is half Asian Pakistani. Zayn is the prime example of white privilege.
