AceShowbiz - Zayn Malik has been rumored to plan a solo career after leaving One Direction, but fans apparently can't get anything official from him in the near future. According to British rapper Mic Righteous whom he collaborated with on the recently-leaked cover of "No Type", the singer is banned from releasing any solo music for the next two years.
Mic Righteous made the claim after Naughty Boy said that neither of him nor Zayn had anything to do with the cover, which arrived via SoundCloud and has now been removed. "[T]hat had nothing to do with me or Zayn, something was stolen from the hard drive that had nothing to do with the rapper involved," the producer tweeted earlier this week.
Responding to Naughty Boy's statement, Mic Righteous took to Facebook and posted a lengthy message insisting that they recorded the track with Zayn a while ago. He further claimed that Naughty Boy denied his and Zayn's involvement because the latter's label didn't allow him to put out new music for two years.
"Mental my own publisher gets my music removed from my souncloud lol, thats why i lost respect for them. F**k stepping on egg shells cos i wanna keep the label happy.. I ain't signed i can do me.. It just gets deep when they gotta lie like yutes to cover tracks," he said. "I signed a deal with sony atv yrs ago and rejected a production deal off them around the same time cos of this exact reason."
"Zayn wants the tune out, he ask me to be on the song, shah (naughtyboy) told me that his label wont let him release any music for the next two yrs.. So you know what i did? I did it for him, for you. And at the end of the day they cant say no to me, i work for the people not the industry," he added.
