ZAYN has announced his fifth studio album, ‘KONNAKOL’

ZAYN has revealed details of his upcoming fifth studio album, ‘KONNAKOL’, set to be released on 17th April via Mercury Records/Island Records UK.

The announcement follows his recent Las Vegas residency, and also includes the release of the lead single ‘Die For Me’, available this Friday.

Discussing the album, ZAYN stated, “It’s that time again, I have been lucky enough to make a fifth studio album… KONNAKOL in its definition is the act of creating percussive sounds with one’s voice but what it means to me lies somewhere much deeper. It is a sound that holds the reverberation of a time before words existed. I have always drawn on my heritage for inspiration since I first started making my own music, this album is a development of that understanding, knowing more now than ever, who I am, where I come from and where I intend to go.”

The album follows ‘Room Under the Stairs’ in 2024 and a solo tour across the US, UK, and Mexico. ZAYN also collaborated with BLACKPINK’s Jisoo on ‘Eyes Closed’.
