One Directionâs Liam Payne is finally poised to release some solo material, following in the footsteps of every other member of the band.
He just posted a teaser of his upcoming single/video to Instagram â and when we say teaser, we mean itâs like 3 seconds of footage (albeit shirtless).

What can we expect from his new offers? According to songwriter-producer Ryan Tedder:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
âIf you took âStory of My Lifeâ and turned it into an album, thatâs kind of Niallâs direction, right? Zayn obviously went R&B and urban. Harry is classic Britpop; Mott the Hoople meets Robbie Williams â that lane. I like Louis, but heâs the one Iâve talked to the least.
âFunnily enough of all the routes that people have taken, the one lane that was left wide open was straight pop. So Liam is pop and doing it in a fantastic fashion. He has a killer voice. There are elements of stuff I like from Usher, thereâs stuff thatâs edgy like The Weeknd ⌠itâs all over the map â itâs pop. Itâs really high quality. Iâve only done one song with him that I did with Stargate. Iâm cutting another song with him next week. The other one that [Zancanella] did with J Kash, itâs my favorite record Iâve heard. If itâs not a hit I need to clear my ears out â itâs so good.â
Hereâs that little morsel of new music for you:

The one direction kids sure got their gay baiting skills down.

You ever notice how it’s always the cutest one that goes solo. Wonder why that is? Lol
ChrisK
Then onward to starring in some idie films.
jjose712
All of them went solo, in fact he is the last one to go solo

Meh. Liam’s always been a homophobe, so he doesn’t do anything for me. I mean, why the hell would you send a message to one of the Duck Dynasty homophobes saying you agree with their family “values”? Then have the audacity to attempt to gay bait us. Nice try Liam, but your behaviour towards gay people is disgusting and I don’t like you because of it. Good luck with your solo career.
ChrisK
I forgot about that. Spent the wknd with them posing in pics. Too bad Queerty has not function to let you post pics.

I still definitely would though…. Maybe a good hate-f*ck will “cure” him of his “family values” platform. đ

He and Louis had several problems with everything gay (in Louis case is simply self hate if the rumours are true).
Liam was bestie with Tom Daley long time ago, but he is unable to keep himself from saying inapropiate things at the worst moments.
In a couple of years only Harry and Niall will remain (maybe Zayn is he is able to stay away from drugs)
Xzamilloh
Nope. I’m good

Is it a solo career as a call boy??! Why shirtless?
Sluggo2007
Oh, please! All those boys are so gay, you have to catch them with butterfly nets.
Donston
Can we stop throwing out nonsense like that?
Donston
You’re using homosexuality as a negative and falling into the “gays think everyone is gay” mentality by claiming homosexuality of five randomly assembled dudes with no “evidence”.
