Zayn is a little over a month away from dropping his long-awaited new album, Room Under the Stairs, and the star took to Instagram on Wednesday (April 10) to reveal the project’s full tracklist.
The 15-track album will feature lead single “What I Am,” as well as tracks including “Alienated,” “My Woman,” Stardust,” “Something in the Water,” “Fuchsia Sea” and more. See the tracklist announcement here.
Room Under the Stairs, which arrives on May 17, will mark Zayn’s first full-length solo project since 2021’s Nobody Is Listening. After leaving One Direction in 2015, the singer launched his solo music career with 2016’s Mind of Mine and followed it up with 2018’s Icarus Falls. Before Malik left to pursue a solo career, 1D released four albums together, each of which hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
It’s gearing up to be an exciting year for Zayn, who is pulling triple-duty in the upcoming animated feature 10 Lives, for which he will write new music and perform a duet with Bridgerton star Simone Ashley. Variety reported that Zayn and Ashley will both star in the film, in which the singer will play “tough-guy twins Cameron and Kirk,” with Ashley voicing a student named Rose.
Zayn will also serve as the executive music producer on the movie, overseeing its musical creative direction. According to a description of director Chris Jenkins’ (Surf’s Up) movie, it tells the story of a “pampered and selfish cat who takes his many lives for granted. After carelessly losing his ninth live he begs for a second chance — and an opportunity to prove he can learn from his mistakes. When his wish is finally granted, however, he learns that it comes with some caveats.”
