Simon Cowell[edit]

Simon Cowell talks about signing Zayn to RCA instead of his Syco label in the latest Billboard issue:

"In March 2015, Zayn Malik left One Direction, announcing, “I want to make music that I think is cool shit” -- pretty much the antithesis of Cowell’s interests. To accommodate Malik, Cowell assigned the contract to RCA Records, which, like Syco, is part of Sony. “Zayn is still signed to our company,” says Cowell with a shrug. “But the boys hadn’t bought into the fact that he was leaving, so out of respect for them, it wasn’t the right thing to put him on Syco. What’s good for Zayn is good for us, good for the show and good for the brand.”"--z33k (talk) 19:13, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All of this information is absolutely not needed here – article looks/reads like a fan site.[edit]

Length: Article is too wordy and long, particularly the composition section. Details about the album’s lyrical content, production, how he sings etc. can surely all be condensed into a paragraph instead of broken into three parts. 'Background' and 'Conception and Influence' can also be merged together as they touch upon the same topic. 'Critical reception' needs to be condensed.

Not Neutral: Article runs the risk of not coming from a neutral perspective. There is no mention of Malik cancelling two concerts (Summertime Ball in June ^[1], Autism Rocks Arena in October^[2]) due to his anxiety in the promotion section. Too much focus on the positive reviews and less on the mixed ones e.g. Brad Nelsen’s Pitchfork review is referenced in the professional scores box but not what he wrote.^[3]

Grammar: Constant switches from Zayn to Malik throughout article. As he released the album under a mononym, he should constantly be referred to by that.
