As Liam Payne gears up to release his debut solo album and find his own voice as a solo artist, he has also enjoyed watching his One Direction brothers discover who they are as musicians.
Heâs really enjoyed how theyâve evolved in ways he never saw coming. He tells Billboard:
"You see us now, and weâre different people. You see Harry [Styles], heâs now in his Gucci suits and different colors and singing different songs. The way he stands with his microphone, itâs all coming out now! You see Louis [Tomlinson] doing dance music. I wouldâve never have seen that coming, because he was the indie kid, and this is very different for him. And I dance now, and that was never a thing when we were in the band. It was kind of frowned upon...So a lotâs changed, but now youâre seeing the real people who were in the band.â
Liam's song "Familiar" alongside J Balvin is out now.
