Chris Brown and Tyler, the Creator Really Want to Work With Zayn Malik

Tyler took a more direct approach. He tweeted the singer overnight with an open offer for them to get together in the studio. "HI @zaynmalik I HAVE BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTALS AND YOU HAVE A VOICE LETS FIGURE THIS OUT MY GUY . EPIC ALBUM CUTS THO NO RADIO SINGLES," he wrote.
