Zayn Malik's leaked song leads to a Twitter war between collaborators

The leak of Zayn’s song No Type with rapper MIC Righteous has started a Twitter war between the rapper and Zayn’s producer friend Naughty Boy.

According to The Indian Express, Zayn's friend Naughty Boy accused Righteous for stealing the song, reported Mettro. “Just wait for the real one… you won’t be disappointed,” tweeted Boy. The tweet however was removed from Twitter shortly.

that 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 song was taken down but Righteous later re-uploaded it, insisting he does not have to “keep the label happy” and was making the song public for Zayn’s sake as he isn’t allowed to release music for two years.

He also posted on Facebook that he "got fed up of waiting" for various labels to sign off on his material with Zayn and "took matters into my own hands regardless of repercussions, leaking that song with Zayn was a way for me to set the fact that I'm doing this independently in stone."



British rapper, MIC Righteous feels betrayed by his old friend Naughty Boy and compared the situation to Peter denying knowing Jesus.
