Zayn Malik releases leaked August Alsina remix as free download
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 12 March 2018
Zayn Malik has released a remix of August Alsina’s ‘Don’t Matter’, featuring vocals from the former One Direction member, as a free download. Although he hadn’t planned to release it at all, but did so following an “unprofessional” leak.
“This was not a song I intended to put out, but due to unprofessionalism [it] has been leaked by someone”, he tweeted yesterday morning. “My fans mean more to me than a stupid leak, so here it is free for you to enjoy”.
In a slightly over-enthusiastic response, Alsina said: “Zayn, I’m sending an abundance of love to you! You are my brother, I am yours. I don’t know how this happened but way to make lemons into lemonade (and a great batch, might I add). We do great work together”.
Zayn wrote back to that: “Turn any negative to a positive! Couldn’t agree more with ya, we sound sick together brother”.
So much love, maybe there’ll be a collaboration between the two at some point which Malik doesn’t have to only reluctantly put out. Download the one he didn’t want you to hear here.
