    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!

    É um álbum realmente muito bom, com músicas incríveis, o Liam só não soube organizar. Mas está esplêndido, no caminho do êxito!!!

    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!

    In this first album, Liam shows us he has finally found his own style with engaging songs that stick into your head

    o liam é muito talentoso e tem uma voz incrível. mesmo que eu não tenha gostado de uma música do album eu não quero que ele desista de tentar, pois ele tem potencial suficiente pra fazer melhor em uma próxima vez. eu o amo e quero apoiá-lo em suas escolhas certas, é isto.

    I expected more but its still a good album. Few tracks are unecessary but most of them is okeyish.

    Liam fez um album muito bom, porém pecou um pouco colocando muitas musicas, sendo algumas de 3 anos atrás. Mas, fora isso está muito bom!!

    Tem um estilo "playlist" muito forte, com músicas para todo o momento. Ótimos vocais e uma boa vibe.

    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. This album would have worked during the time of Strip That Down in 2017 (which was a success). There’s some songs that have goodI like his music. It’s not bad. Sonically he has a pretty good sound.

There’s some songs that have good lyrics and meanings but most of the songs are just about sex & money which also gets boring after a while.

    wird how it seem that 'hate' liam payne is the new trend.

    with that being said the album is actually really median. there are good pop songs on it but as a complete piece it fails to cause an impression or a perspect of Liam artistry. he still needs to find his own indentity. as a pop album, the production is way too generic and doesnt add anything that sounds individual, genuine or    wird how it seem that 'hate' liam payne is the new trend.

    I just feel like Liam could prove to us so much more than this. This song is flooded with generic beats and a voice that doesn't vocalize any emotions, which makes the album boring and gives me a huge urge to shut it off. I really respected in him in his One Direction days (which he claims is past him now), and was seriously anticipating his solo work the most alongside Harry, but this isI just feel like Liam could prove to us so much more than this.

    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

    LP1 não é um álbum ruim, mas é um álbum que não tem um diferencial, é apenas um álbum pop. Não temos um Liam decidido quanto ao seu estilo. Espero que ele se encontre em algo e que isso nos envolva junto com ele.

    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.

    This album is generic but voice sounds good. Liam doesn't show us what he can do.

    I was expecting to hear a variety sound on theses new tracks and i didn't have it an album very generic with a very repetitive choruses.The worst is the he was the last ex-1d to make a solo album to give us this poor production so much talent for nothing.At least what save this album is the the older singles.

    It's a great album. I mean, the lyrics are just **** but the melodies are pretty good. In this album, Liam Payne doesn't show us who are Liam Payne, he just put superficial lyrics in some pop sounds.

    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.
