Zayn Malik marks first solo collaboration with Chris Brown's latest single

Chris Brown's recent release has turned former One Direction star Zyan Mallik into a complete solo artist.

On February 20, at midnight, Brown released 'F**k You Back to Sleep,' a remix of a 2015 single and one of his most explicit songs, featuring the former One Direction star and Usher, which marks the first collaboration as a solo artist for Malik, who left the band last March, reports E! Online. Before this, Mallik released his debut single, the sensual 'Pillowtalk'.

The remix of 'F**k You Back to Sleep' also mentions the name of the 26-year-old rapper's ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran.

The 'Say Goodbye' singer had released the original version of the song, also titled 'Back to Sleep" and 'Sex You Back to Sleep', last November.
