The 23-year-old singer will release 'Mind of Mine' on March 25, exactly one year after he quit One Direction, and on Wednesday (17.02.16), he revealed the cover of his solo record during an appearance on 'The Tonight Show'.

It features a picture of the star as a cherubic youngster with tattooed arms and has already drawn comparisons to Lil Wayne's 'Tha Carter III' album.

Zayn also performed the song he wrote about his ex-fiancée Perrie Edwards during his first TV appearance as a solo artist, 'It's You', which will be the second single from the album.

Zayn has said previously: "I just felt like I needed to put myself out there on that just because it was a form of therapy for me and it did help get me through some s**t."

The former couple split in August, amid claims he had dumped her by text, something he denies.

Zayn is currently dating model Gigi Hadid, who appears in the video for his debut single 'Pillowtalk'.

One Direction's remaining members, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson, are currently on an extended hiatus.
