It’s the best night for Zayn Malik’s fans as the former One Direction rocked the stage during live performance after nine years.

The Dusk Till Dawn hitmaker took to the Shepherd's Bush Empire stage on Friday night, May 17, hours after releasing his much anticipated fourth studio album, Room Under the Stairs.

The 31-year-old crooner marked his first-ever live performance since leaving the iconic boy band featuring him, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson.

Shortly after Malik kicked off his live gig, Zquad flooded social media with praise and excitement.

One fan raved, "It was definitely the best night of my life. Thank you, Zayn. Thank you for always growing and showing us that if we can dream about it we can have it. So so proud you."

Another exclaimed, "Zayn really smashed it tonight!!!!! The vocals! the visuals! the atmosphere!"

Meanwhile, a third fan expressed, "I'm so happy, I cannot put into words how proud I am of Zayn. he literally deserves it all. the show was amazing, it felt so short because we just wanted to stay there with him. the ambience was amazing, love zquad so much! y'all are the best out there."

After wrapping up the magical night for Zquad, the Night Changes singer interacted with fans, took selfies and gave autographs.
