RCA’s ZAYN follows up last week’s strong start with more milestones. Having topped the iTunes singles chart worldwide (and moving 267k+ in the U.S. in his first week), “PILLOWTALK” added the top spot on the U.K. singles sales chart, the #1 spot on Spotify’s global chart (the fastest cut by a debut act ever to do so) and an array of chart-topping sales bows around the planet.
What’s more, he’s earned the most first-day and weekly streams for a debut artist track worldwide. The erstwhile 1D member’s video has racked up more than 60 million views. ZAYN’s 2/17 appearance on Fallon should further ramp up the action; he's also issued a new acoustic version of the track.
His full length bow, Mind of Mine, is due from the House of Nipper on 3/25.
