In a recent appearance on the\u00a0Track Star Podcast, Zayn Malik shared an unexpected insight into his forthcoming album ‘Konnakol’. The 33-year-old singer took part in a light-hearted guessing game with host Jack Coyne, where he was asked to identify songs and their artists.<\/p>\n
During the segment, a classic track by the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was played. Zayn correctly identified the song and used the moment to speak about the late singer\u2019s influence on his work.<\/p>\n
The singer revealed that he has drawn inspiration from Nusrat and has even named a track on his new album in his honour. The gesture highlights the lasting impact of the qawwal icon\u2019s music across generations.<\/p>\n
‘Konnakol’, set for release on April 17, marks a distinctive creative direction for Zayn. Speaking about the album, he explained the concept behind its title: \u201cKonnakol is the sound, like making percussion sounds with your voice,\u201d he said, demonstrating the technique himself.<\/p>\n
He added that much of the album\u2019s soundscape is built using his own voice, which he then layers with vocals. \u201cSo I was using my voice to make the music and then singing over the top of it,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n
The album\u2019s first music video, Sideways, released on March 27, has already begun circulating widely online. With anticipation steadily building, listeners are eager to see how Zayn blends experimental vocal techniques with personal influences in this latest project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
