Liam Payne’s producer announces postponement of posthumous single ‘Do No Wrong’ following the death of former One Direction bandmates

A new song from late singer Liam Payne, which was supposed to debut this week, has been postponed.

Payne, a former member of the popular boy band One Direction, died on October 16 after falling from the third floor of a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was 31.

One of his producers, Sam Pounds, announced on social media Tuesday that Payne’s new single, “Do No Wrong,” would not be released on Thursday as previously announced.

“Today I decide to ‘Do No Wrong’ and leave these freedoms to all family members. I want all proceeds to go to a charity of their choice (or however they choose),” Pounds wrote on social media. “Even though we all love the song, the time is not yet. We are all still grieving the passing of Liam and I want the family to mourn in peace and prayers. We will all wait. With love Sam Pounds. “

An investigation into the singer’s death is underway.

Fans are heartbroken. In 2022, Payne shared at VeeCon that he wanted to be remembered as “a nice guy”.

“For me now it’s trying to give everyone the time they deserve with you, if that’s what they’re excited about,” he said at the time. “It doesn’t matter what they say or what they do. You just have to put your time and effort into those people because it will come back. So yeah, I’d rather be known as nice than anything.”

Payne announced in May 2023 that he was working on a new album and planning a tour.
