Single Review | Snakehips - Cruel (feat. ZAYN)

Snakehips
Cruel (feat. ZAYN) - Single
Sony Music
Release date: July 15, 2016

 Snakehips, a electronic music duo, has collaborated with Zayn Malik for a new track and I am loving it to the max.

'Cruel' kicks off with a slow-paced intro over Zayn singing about his crush (a "Venus in Converse" - WOAH!): "It's fucked, it's crazy / I can't concentrate," he sings in his melancholy-but-not-really mood, followed by a really highly-energized chorus. In short: It's a banger!

This song makes one of his first pieces of new music since releasing Mind of Mine back in March. Also, worth to be noted: Checkout 'Who', a song Malik sang for the new, all-female led Ghostbusters.
