Liam Payne

Once upon a time, there was One Direction (1D) and Directioners. It seems like such a long time ago, but it really has only been 1 year and 8 months since One Direction broke up for good. Were you a Directioner? Remember how big of a deal it was when Zayn Malik went solo. Now, look at the bigger picture. Everybody has gone solo.

Say it isn’t true? It seems Fifth Harmony will break up too if my sources are correct. So much for staying the course. Who thought the group was going to add another member? Maybe, One Direction will reunite someday as will Fifth Harmony.

And so, you know the story of 1D and Liam Payne. The kind and likable Liam Payne established himself in a mean and nasty music industry. Liam Payne and the establishment are one in the same because he is elite.

What ever happened to true Fandom? Why did the Beatles have to breakup? If you are an artist you’ve gotta build your fan base like One Direction. That’s why there are Katycats, Lovatics, and Beliebers because individuals had the foresight to establish themselves. Are you a Swiftie? Well then, check out the Urban Legend of Taylor Swift and Who’s Really Hotter Taylor Swift Vs. Katy Perry?

Lately, Taylor Swift has been dominating the news. Right now, it is time to give a shout out to Liam Payne. Today is literally his birthday. He turns 24 years old. Wish him a happy birthday @IamGuruJay and @LiamPayne.

Who’s waiting for Liam Payne’s next album? Fresh off the One Direction (1D) boat, Liam recently released 2 singles: Strip That Down and Get Low. Strip That Down has went double platinum. I predict it will go triple platinum when it’s all said and done. Who knows he could get a diamond in the future.

What Is One Direction Without Zayn?

Who thought Harry Styles would go first? It doesn’t make sense that Zayn left One Direction so soon. It’s been a minute now and there are talks that he may come back still.

I came across a story about Paul McCartney weighing in on the topic. Speaking of weight, I gotta get this off my chest. O.K., One Direction will never be in the same ballpark as the Beatles. Who told you that lie?

I believe One Direction is an amazing band no doubt. Their music appeals to the youth. Plus, the band’s social media game has no rivals.

Nowadays, you’re measured by the power of your social network. With 28 million Twitter followers aka Directioners, One Direction has a powerful fan-base comprising of fortresses and arsenals around the world. Why on Earth would Zayn Malik leave it?

All I’m saying is what ever happened to loyalty, pride, and stick-to-it-ed-ness? What is One Direction without Zayn? The answer is PILLOWTALK. Yes, we got a hit song and top music video out his departure but at what price?

Maybe, this is the real question-> does One Direction need Zayn and vice versa? It boils down to what is best for both parties. Right now Zayn is in a different lane. In America, it is the left lane because he’s going fast. In Great Britain, it’s the right lane.

Zayn should keep doing whatever he wants to because that’s his motto. I only ask that he keep making great music for music’s sake. The world needs good music and Zayn makes great music. Like Katy Perry, he delivers what we want.

In the prophetic words of Tupac Shakur, “I aint mad at cha…Zayn. Pillowtalk hypnotizes you like John Lennon’s lyrics. People compare him to Justin Timberlake who left NSYNC but I say that’s some big shoes to fill….not to mention those huge cufflinks, custom-suit, and tie shit.
