Konnakol 2LP

Mind of Mine was Zayn Malik's chart-topping solo debut after he left One Direction in 2015, trading his old band's pop for a moodier, more atmospheric strain of R&B. Konnakol borrows its title from a South Indian vocal-percussion tradition, an odd reference point for a British R&B record to reach for. This Black Friday pressing is a deluxe "concrete jungle" colored 2LP, two records' worth of physical presence for one title.
