    I havent heard anything this bland in my whole life. And i listened to BAD music but this was just bland and I hoped it was over after every song. This record sounds like a robot was fed with the most generic sounds of 2018/2019 and had to produce an album on its own. I think Liams voice doesnt sound bad but it is just soooo boring. Dont even bother listening to this

    Nice rhytms and production!
    It would be better if he could show us more his incredible voice and have more lyricism. But i like this!

    This album is just amazing! One of the bests I've heard so far! It literally has no skips. There is a thing going on right now to send unnecessary hate towards Liam and the album. I don't think he deserves that. I suggest everyone to give him a chance and listen to the album. It's really good and you won't regret it.

    Some real good, catchy and dancing songs. I feel like this is his style. Liam Payne put several songs on it, and it looks like he didn't wanted to make them all make sense together, but this is not bad. the one called "For You" from fifty shades of grey's second film is on it. I think he deserves more recognition.

    I know it's not the best album ever, but Liam just made an album full of bop pop songs that for sure will make you dance, some that can make you cry like All I Want and Remember, it sounds amazing to me, it's like the ultimate formula for a good pop album. The vocals are flawless like always, and yes, the lyrics are not that deep but, c'mon, it just a dance pop album, give it a chance.

    Liam eres increíble, y tu álbum tiene canciones muy pegadizas. Lo que no me gusta es que no estás aprovechando todo el potencial que tienes, talento te sobra, sólo tienes que aprender a explotarlo, fuiste uno de los principales compositores en 1D, y estoy muy orgullosa de ti.

    I cannot understand why people hate LP1 and Liam. He worked so hard for his album and people himuliated him. That is not OK. People should have some respect. And I think "Both Ways" is not including any homofobic thoughts. Liam is doing his type of music and he is good at it. And that is all that matters. TPWK.

    I like his music. It’s not bad. Sonically he has a pretty good sound. Vocally, same. Lyrically, meh. It would have been nice if he released this album in 2017-18 so that people could take it more seriously. By 2020, listening to the same trap beat gets boring.

    When listening to album I saw music from years ago, and it seems that it does not come out of the same sound. Liam made a bad mistake, and it seems like discarded music and given to him, he had a great hope in his talent and unfortunately it was not what he expected.

The album is not also as deep as the others as producing, but if you are a 1d stan, you would enjoy every single one of them cause they will show variety of genre and show you their individualism when it comes to music taste which is good. So this Album LP1 is actually good, it differs from the genre of the other boys, RnB genre for zayn, Acoustic for niall, Rock for Harry, Acoustic/EDM for louis and Liam would take over the hiphop, so hiphop is less appreciated than the other genres that's why. But the album specifically is totally a mood, they contain different genres as well, there's nothing bad about it unless you misinterpreted some words. There are explicit tracks,(well, liam is a grown up man 26 yrs old, you can't expect him to sing like he's come from a 17yr old boyband, cause we're on reality already) but if you try to lower your standards, you will realize that the album is not deep, yes but do we have to think that every track should be a poem? sometimes staying low and basic is pretty good, some says its generic, yes but it will define your mood at the moment, so i think its one of the best album so far in 2019, the problem is that everyone is not giving them a chance believing on what is written in social mediaswhich is not good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love this album so much, whenever I feel like I'm in a bad mood or sad (pretty much everyday), I listen to it, jamming and jumping everywhere, it makes me happy.
    And I love Liam, he means so much to me, such an amazing person, underrated artist, his voice is incredible, he deserves nothing but happiness and success ❤️.
    I'm so proud of him.
    My favourite songs are: live forever, hips don't lie, tell your friends and weekend.
    This album doesn't deserve all the hate it gets, I love it, if you don't like it it's okay but please don't hate, he worked so hard on this.
    Thank you so much Liam, all the love. xB

    yikes i could not even listen to a single song off of this album. it seems that liam went the “wannabe justin bieber” route post one direction, while his other band mates, harry, niall, and zayn have found their sound. not a fan of the way he’s been acting either, with his constant criticism of harry and questionable remarks. disappointing to see how his solo career changed him

    He relies on inane songwriting concepts, rote misogyny, and feelingless flexing. The lyrics are puerile and half-baked.

    Spread over 17 songs that tick off genres with all the flair of an automated Spotify playlist, Payne’s anonymity remains the album’s default through line. Occasionally painful yet weirdly Payne-less.

    Ultimately, a few things come from repeated listenings of “LP1″: First off, the writing and singing aren’t strong enough and come across as C-level Timberlake material. Two, without being surrounded by 1D, he shouldn’t sing high, flightily and airily, but rather stick to slow, low groovers. Three, Payno should find one or two styles that work best for him — and not put a host of other singers before him, male or female — and stick to them.
