The UK-born entertainer was sporting his usual beard and was alone as he was seen heading into his home.
Malik wore a black zip-up hoodie with white stripes going down the sleeves.
He went hands-free, carrying nothing as he tucked one hand in the pocket of his black pants. A watch and a ring could be seen on his exposed hand.
The look was finished with white sneakers that had black laces.
