    1. Firstly, to correct myself, the beautiful language Zayn speaks at the end is Urdu.
    2. I mean this humbly because reaction channels come in bunches, I believe I’m one of a kind on this platform. Every like, subscribe, & share allows me the path to grow. Share as much as you can. Social media: @ anthony96jr ✌🏾❤️

      Actually it's a Bollywood song sung in Urdu. Urdu and Hindi are the same in many ways but pronunciation of certain words and phrases are different. So I guess it's fine. Your reaction was great. Bless you.

    as someone that's grown up listening to r&b i can confirm that this is really good and should not be called pop on ANY music platform.

      Facts. I love R&B so much man, I've felt this connection with it so much. The chilly, the grooviness and the overall vibe is so damn great. Zayn was made for R&B and I'm glad he has done an all R&B album. Some of the tracks gave me 90s and early 00s vibe btw

      R&B is my favorite genre of music. I'm glad Zayn went the R&B route, his voice is clearly meant for it. Zayn has been an R&B artist for some time now...so they should stop labelling his music as pop now.

His vocals are out of this world. Outside, Connextion ,and Tightrope have my heart and Sweat and Windowsill have me reaching for a glass of water. You were shaken by how great this album is, and as a Zquader from Day one, I couldn’t be prouder of his growth as an artist. Calamity, had me on the edge of my seat from the moment I heard his voice.

    My dog is my child, so I believe he's saying the dog was kind of like their kid and they don't know how to split their lives. Some people may think that it's easier to break up, but when you live with someone, it's a lot harder than just your feelings. Even if you're not married, it's just like a divorce. He's in a dilemma: should he move on, or is it easier to forgive and forget and try again?
