Zayn Malik and August Alsina on the newly-leaked remix “Don’t Matter”
In the digital age, las fugas se han convertido para los artistas’ en uno de los mayores temores: ver cómo su música inédita termina en redes sociales disponible para cualquier persona de forma gratuita y, lo que es peor, before they can give the final touches or their approval.
That’s exactly what happened to Zayn Malik this past weekend. He was the victim of a recent leak, of his new collaboration with rapper August Alsina titulado “Don’t Matter (Remix)" – One project he did not plan or wish to include among the themes of his next musical material. But due to the lack of professionalism of someone who decided to release it without permission, this one ended up circulating in the virtual sphere. So the artist decided to take the theme and give it away on his website, as a remix made by August Alsina.

As you see, a complicated situation. The British wanted to downplay this fact and has shown that he cares about his fans and that he does everything for them, and that he has published this song completely free of charge. So anyone, anywhere in the world, can enjoy “Don’t Matter (Remix)" without spending a single euro.
For Malik, his fans are much more important than a “stupid filtration” as he comments and opted for the free download of the subject, before releasing new material. In just a few hours, the web space collapsed due to the increase in traffic caused by all the star’s fans eager to hear the song.
Nos encontramos ante un gran tema, that returns to pick up that essence of Zayn Malik that we had not been able to enjoy too much during his stage in the band. A fresh song, which brings very good feelings and is very worth listening to. You have no excuse for not doing it.
The track itself builds upon August’s original, que lanzó en junio, adicionando un verso de Zayn que sigue un tema lascivo con una referencia a la última gran Baby Girl.
“We rockin’ the boat ’cause you look like Aaliyah to me,” he sings. “One in a million, you one of a kind / Baby you know you be blowin’ my mind / All of my neighbors they wanna know why.”
El ex estrella de One Dirección abordó la fuga en Twitter, confirming that, after all, it was not meant to be launched.
This was not a song I intended to put out, pero se ha filtrado debido a la falta de profesionalismo de alguien y mis fans significan para mí más que una fuga estúpida, así que aquí está libre para que puedan disfrutar, before my music drops https://t.co/M7NZnlGBw7 🙂 love z pic.twitter.com/ggYMqaKlC9

“Esta no era una canción que tenía la intención de lanzar, pero se ha filtrado debido a la falta de profesionalismo de alguien y mis fans significan para mí más que una fuga estúpida, así que aquí está libre para que puedan disfrutar, antes de que mi música caiga http://inzayn.com/#music 🙂 love z”, wrote Zayn.
This gesture of Zayn also had the approval of the other affected by the leak, August, who did not hesitate to applaud his decision and, incidentally, disociarse de cualquier posible error de su parte que podría haber causado la situación incómoda en la que ambos estaban.
Zayn, I’m sending an abundance of love to you! You are my brother, I am yours. No sé cómo sucedió esto, pero vaya forma de convertir limones en limonada. (& a great batch, might I add) ???? we do great work together. ❤️⚡️ Mashallah King! https://t.co/fRzaIdIUD4

La persona a que Malik se refiere es desconocida, pero luego le dio “great love” to Alsina on Twitter.
Alsina’s next album, Drugs, remains in limbo. In November, the R & B cantante culpó a Def Jam de la demora, diciendo que la etiqueta lo tenía como un “hostage”. Meanwhile, Malik is working on his second album, un seguimiento de the Mind of Mine de 2016, possibly his single with the Australian singer Sia, “Dusk Till Dawn”, is part of the list of songs.
