Yes, Zayn Malik has recently hinted at facing racial discrimination, particularly during his time in One Direction.
See lessIn a snippet of his upcoming song “Fuchsia Sea,” which he shared on social media, he includes the lyric: “Cause I worked hard in a white band, and they still laughed at the Asian.” This line has garnered significant attention and led fans to believe he is referring to his experiences with racism during his time with the predominantly white boyband.
This isn’t the first time Zayn has spoken about facing discrimination. As a British-Pakistani and Muslim artist, he has previously discussed being labeled as “the other” and experiencing Islamophobia throughout his career. His ethnicity and background have often been a topic of discussion, and he has been vocal about the challenges of being a person of color in the entertainment industry.
His departure from One Direction in 2015 was also reportedly influenced by the intense scrutiny and misrepresentation he faced, partly due to his identity.
