Zayn Malik proved that his vocal power has only grown stronger, despite a hiatus from the stage.

Taking his debut solo Las Vegas residency as the perfect opportunity to remind fans of his talent, the former One Direction star opted sHe as the opening track during the third show.

On Saturday night, January 24, the Dusk Till Dawn hitmaker performed the song from his first solo album Mind of Mine while on Dolby Live stage at Park MGM. 

The sHe high note, which occurs during the chorus and bridge, is a famous "thing" within Zquad (his fandom) because of its difficulty and his vocal range.

Fans were in awe of Zayn’s vocal prowess with one raving on X, formerly Twitter, "I didn’t think zayn's high note could get better but he literally went even harder tonight."

"ZAYN MALIK YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST VOCALIST OF OUR GENERATIOn," another added.

A concert goer gushed, "So proud of you, you sounded amazing last night."

"He's insanely talented," a fourth complimented as the Bradford boy sent concertgoers into a meltdown with his soaring vocals.

Although the 34-year-old musician has faced criticism regarding his lack of promotion for his music, his vocal talent and high notes are rarely disputed.

For the unversed Zayn is frequently cited as the "high note boss," with sHe often used in social media "high note challenges" and vocal reaction videos where fans and coaches analyze his falsetto.
