    I'm pretty sure l would love it more if there weren't the old songs. Enjoyable music, Liam's vocals are always a blessing to hear, but I feel that he can do it better at lyrics (knowing that he didn't write most of the songs), but LP1 is a good combination he's doing it very well.

    Gostei muito do álbum, a minha musica preferida é 'Tell Your Friends', que hino! Confesso que poderia ser um pouco melhor, mas considerando que este é o 1º álbum do Liam, na minha opinião, está ótimo!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’ve been a fan of Liam for nearly 10 years now. He is exceptional with a great voice, stage presence and song writing abilities. However I felt that the album was let down and that he could have done a lot better than this. His vocals on the album were strong but the lyrics were poor and at times offensively bad. It was disappointing that he wrote so few of the songs when he wrote a very amount of One Direction sounds along with his old bandmate Louis, he wrote the most songs. I hope that next time he writes more songs and releases songs that mean something and are personal to him. It’s not a bad album but it’s not a good one either. Expand

    The way Liam talks about the main theme in the album (sex) is not sexy or instigating. Everything sounds vulgar and forced. There are problematic lyrics, generic melodies and Payne seems to ignore his potential to do something inovative.

    With heavy and awkward sexual statements and very poor representation of bisexuality, some of the features and some of the singing are the only redeemable qualities off of this otherwise forgettable album.
    I believe that he's capable of delivering a fun enjoyable project but he needs to learn from this horrible backlash and grow as an artist, or just drop it all together and become a model, maybe he just wants money and doesn't give a **** about the art , and that's ok, horrible album, not waiting for anything he drops anytime soon.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Liam had so much potential that he unfortunately has not used. The album contains a bunch of old singles ans collaborations that contribute to the album feeling more like a "bravo hits" or "best of" than a debut project. The album has a few good moments like Remember and a few of those singles but disappoints severely with songs like "rude hours" and "both ways" lyrically. The first may can be regarded as being purely shocking and provocative while both ways is just a no-go in this day and age. The production value is good though not existing. His sound definitely fits well on the radio and I hope he will have his moment. However, it is forgettable and his sound is not distinct nor unique which might be his downfall. Liam is an amazing vocalist and great life. His solo debut album failed to show what a great artist he could've been and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. He might has put too much of his energy into other project and or has not found his own identity. Truly hope that he will find himself in the future and deliver a sophomore project that shows his talent and abilities. Expand

    When worldwide musical phenomenon One Direction announced its split back in 2015 the world was shocked. Thousands cried enough tears to see their own reflection in them. What helped 1D's fans to stop with this life-drama was the fact that they could now be able to go to their favorite member's tour and enjoy their solo music.

What helped 1D's fans to stop with this life-drama was the fact that they could now be able to go to their favorite member's tour and enjoy their solo music.
    Payne started teasing a solo album back in 2017 and the world couldn't be more pleased with his debut single. This, however, evolved to a series of too-commercial bubblegum pop singles that have been included in "LP1" which, thanks to this, has been transformed in a kind of greatest hits album with a couple of new tracks in order to achieve a gold certification faster.
    LP1's production is predictable and too teen. It exposes that he hasn't evolved in years and has stuck to his teenage years; in this fairytale non-realistic world. In conclusion, the album is too generic and boring. A terrible move for Liam Payne whose future seems dark if he continues putting this kind of songs which only appeal to sex out instead of focusing on growing up musically and personally.

It doesn’t say anything about him and I looked at the songs that he wrote and he barely wrote a couple of them (don’t remember how many, but were less than 6 I think). I think he focus on quantity instead of quality and he aimed for a hit instead of something that represented him as a person and artist. His songs don’t tell stories, don’t move you, don’t make you feel anything more than cringe with the lyrics. I would like to think that he was not well advised and that he only followed his records advises instead of following his guy. But needless to say I expected more from Liam. He has an amazing voice and he is capable of more, he just has to stop looking for hits and focus more about giving his music soul and meaning.

    Liam Payne's only album so far in his career is a collection of mid-to-poorly executed pop cliche rejects, that sound more like a playlist of songs over the course of his entire career rather than a consistent body of work.

    This is a terrible album. I can’t even finish listening to the first half of the album because it’s that bad.

    If you've ever found yourself about to listen to Justin Timberlake but then thought to yourself "You know, I wish there was a version of Justin Timberlake that was more like a discount ALDI brand", then this album will probably tickle your fancy.

    What utter crap. This album is so disappointing. Boring, bland and uninspired. The guy actually has a decent voice and wrote good songs in 1D. This genre is not for him.

    Dude went in completely wrong direction with his music. Wannabe rapper with horrible lyrics wrapped in pop bubble.

    This album is an absolute mess, fans were waiting years for a greatest hits album with no actual hits. Disappointed.

    The worst thing about that is the fact that this is his debut album. His first body of work is the most random, generic, basic and boring thing I’ve heard in years. Sounds like a Justin Timberlake and Chris Brown compilation of rejected songs. And also a random Christmas song at the end? Fire whoever thought of that.

    Payne didn't bother writing any of these songs and his vocals are smooth and soulless on every track. He **** bisexual women on Both Ways and other tracks like Rude Hours and Hips Don't Lie are sordid and sleazy. A disaster.

    Terrible, non listenable, lowest of the lowest, lower of the bar, don't know who can outlow this
    we had enough pop boys making generic pop albums about sex this isn't 2002 to be a JT wannabe
    also how he thinks bi people will find both ways good

    i think we should've all listened to romance/SG2/Lover/Manic rather than this

    this is so basic and generic, a carbon copy of justin bieber and timberlake type of sound but without any flavor, the lyrics is so cringy and the dated production gives this album the title of the worst album of 2019, i'm sorry liam but maybe you should keep posting nudes on social media because it takes more than looking hot to be a true artist.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. **** album, nothing special, weird lyrics, same beat throughout the whole project, both ways is a biphobic song and the lyrics are so distracting and uncomfortable, this is the least interesting ex 1D member, Harry & Zayn remain superior.

    I will be 100% unbiased but this album is the worst thing I've ever heard its embarrassing to call it an album because he was trying to make a noise with this album but he failed miserably ... Let's not forget about the lyrics that were supposed to be "trendy" so he could have a bigger audience listening to his music but that was another failed attempt and there's that song that talk aboutI will be 100% unbiased but this album is the worst thing I've ever heard its embarrassing to call it an album because he was trying to make a noise with this album but he failed miserably ...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The mediocrity.. I can't. I thought the name "LP1" was a joke. The tracks, production.. and the lyrics.. are so bad. Why would they let you get away with it? Just stick to whatever you are doing. But it's not this. Definitely not music. Expand

    The worst album I've heard in 2019. It's even worse than Kanye's PATHETIC "Jesus Is King". Hope Liam Payne starts making something good for real in the next era.

    Simply awful, no cohesion at all and the lyrics looks like at 16 year old boy all full of hormones wrote it. The worst work by a 1D ex-member so far.

    Only cares about money. Not a good look for him. If anyone actually enjoys this album they are delusional. There is no cohesion or meaning in the whole album and it is a waste of time.

    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.
