When I first heard Harry (Adore You release, roughly) I was interested to find out about the others, and one of the things I learned quickly was that we were supposed to take all of them as being equals. My first impressions however were:

Zayn: good voice but it's thin. Not music I liked. Never setting the world on fire. Probably not the nicest guy.

Liam: bit weird. Good voice but hams it up and comes across a bit strangely. Don't really want to see him in his underpants.

Niall: ok. No opinion really. Not great dress sense.

Louis: immediately identified him as the nasty one who caused trouble. He has that demeanour. Cannot sing to save his life and all 1D songs would be better without him.

Now I just think, (leaving Niall out of it because he seems to be just a bit of a prick at times, not actually evil) I seriously dislike the other three, everything about them, their music and their personalities. Their careers are ageing like milk and absolutely deserve to. But most irritating are their fans, who ignore some shocking behaviour and insist Harry got a leg up because of management favouritism. Get a life!

Zayn's solo rollout was actually more flashy than Harry's was, but ot5s will never admit this. Zayn was on the cover of every style magazine out there and his label even arranged a Taylor Swift collab for him, but his own poor work ethic stopped him from progressing.

UMG also laid out the red carpet for Liam in 2017. Liam brought out songs with some of the biggest names in his chosen genres - Quavo, J Balvin, Zedd. Despite this, only Strip that Down was a hit.

Voicemail Sings a Wreck

Moving on pure instinct, Louis speeds up and takes a flying leap forward, crashing into Harry’s back and knocking him onto the ground. He’s too late though, Harry has succeeded in throwing the flag to Liam who has been lying in wait sneakily over to the side.  “I know you want to jump my bones, Louis,” Harry drawls underneath him, smirking, “but this is a whole other level.”  “You’re disgusting,” Louis says, scrambling to his feet. “And you’re also out. Fuck off.” “Might as well just stay here since the game is going to end now anyway,” Harry says, smug.  “Yeah, you’re right,” Louis says when a loud cheer surfaces from the side from his sisters. He grins when Gianna comes racing down the side of the hill, a blue fraternity flag clutched in her hand. “You lose.”  Harry sits up abruptly, swearing.  “Maybe focus on your defense a little more next time,” Louis says, then shakes his head. “Alphas are so predictable.”

Zedd, Liam Payne - Get Low (Street Video)

[statementlou]

not that i care but it’s so crazy to me how liams got more spotify monthly listeners than louis like. i genuinely do not understand it cos no disrespect to him but liam’s album was a flop and he definitely couldn’t sell tours the way louis does. so where are all those listeners coming from???

huh good question! (He currently has 5 million to Louis' 4 million.) I would guess that the main reason is because so many of his songs are collabs (plus a little additional lifetime boost from Strip That Down still being on playlists)? Like for example every time one of Rita Ora's 11 million listeners or Alesso's 19 m or Jonas Blue or Zedd's 16 m play their artist playlist, or someone listens to the 50 Shades or Ron's Gone Wrong soundtrack, Liam gets a listener tallied. And he has way more collabs than I just listed! SO MANY! It's actually a clever strategy- he may not be able to sell tours but I wouldn't be surprised if he pulls in more royalty money than Louis, you know? Anyway so anyone who lets a Liam song play through one time gets counted as a monthly listener. Whereas a decent chunk of Louis' listeners are probably listening to multiple songs daily; but in 'monthly listener' counts that is still just 1 person, same as someone who just hears one song on a playlist.

Not the Liam Payneful stans celebrating 4 years of LP like it won 10 Grammys 🤣🤣🤣

An apt moment to remind ourselves of what Pitchfork said about it!

Score: 4.3

By Rawiya Kamei

REVIEWED:

December 16, 2019

The former One Direction member’s solo debut is just another pop star flailing to find his identity amid trend-hopping production and half-baked lyrics.

One Direction was famously assembled because Simon Cowell and his fellow X-Factor judges didn’t have much faith in the boys’ potential as solo artists. If Liam Payne’s debut, released more than a decade after the band’s televised genesis, is any indication, Cowell was right. Payne is, at best, competent.

His voice is pleasant but not especially charismatic. His choices are safe but uninspired. A couple of years after launching his career, his musical identity remains wholly unremarkable. (Cowell has since criticized Payne in the press for signing with Capitol, and not his own pop-pipeline label.) 

LP1’s 17 songs, including a 2018 Rita Ora collab from the 50 Shades Freed soundtrack and a Christmas number tacked on at the end, have the ambiance and trend-scraping of a Zara fitting room.

The journey from boy band to solo act has broken many aspiring pop stars. But what it requires most—gesturing at a distinct, compelling identity—is Payne’s biggest question mark. Despite being a UK tabloid fixture, he’s been unable to convey a discernible personality—or any personality at all.

Even with a built-in global audience of millions, it’s unclear who this collection of middling songs could possibly resonate with. Former Directioners clamoring for a solo Liam album? New fans seeking nondescript, paint-by-numbers pop? And yet, improbably, Payne has been among the band’s most successful solo members, metrics-wise.

“Strip That Down,” a 2017 love song premised on his freedom from One Direction and featuring a bloodless verse from Quavo, has amassed billions of plays. Other singles, like “Familiar” with J Balvin and “Get Low” with Zedd, despite being completely unmemorable, have proved adequate enough to satisfy the low bar of a generic pop playlist.

Throwing spaghetti at a Spotify algorithm and seeing what sticks appears to be Payne’s strategy with the rest of LP1. The single “Stack It Up,” featuring A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, further betrays his ambition of an Ed Sheeran-style metabolism of the current pop sounds. There are layered R&B harmonies, vaguely Latin rhythms, and compressed synths as melody, but even with two songs written by Sheeran himself, Payne only gasps at his radio-ready effectiveness.

In recent press, Payne has hinted at the complexity of his life post-One Direction, including fatherhood, brushes with substance abuse, and frustration with accepting his role as the band’s most-boring member. But he draws little inspiration from that wealth of real-life experience. Instead, he relies on inane songwriting concepts, rote misogyny, and feelingless flexing.

The lyrics are puerile and half-baked. It’s hardly worth laying them all out on the page, but the worst offender must be from (the nerve!) “Hips Don’t Lie”: “Don’t be giving me the eye/Unless you got what I need/I hope your hips don’t lie/Unless they’re lying with me,” he sings.

One song, “Both Ways,” takes the trope of hetero objectification of bisexual women to gross new lows: “No, no, I don’t discriminate/Bring it back to my place/Yeah, she like it both ways.”

In addition to being offensive, it’s not even convincing as an expression of desire. If you can’t effectively use a pop song to communicate horniness, the most basic of human emotions, then what do you have?

Listening to LP1, you almost feel sorry for Payne. It’s maybe more pathetic to have failed not for risking too much, but after seeming to have tried so little.
