The One Direction alum who passed away on October 16 after falling from a hotel, will get his first posthumous release on November 1.

On October 28, Pounds shared the news via his X handle (formally known as Twitter).

Let’s check out what the musician has said.
Sam Pounds hopes to eclipse the negative echoes of this song with Liam Payne
Pounds wrote while announcing the song, “I pray that this will be a blessing to the world like Liam has always dreamed. I pray angels will comfort you all everyday while listening.”
Payne passed away at the age of 31 due to polytraumatism as per the legal officials. The condition is used to describe patients with multiple traumatic injuries including internal and external hemorrhage that comes from a fall. Moreover, a preliminary toxicology report also revealed that the singer was under the influence of multiple drugs, including what is believed to be pink cocaine at the time of his death.
Previously, the ‘Strip That Down’ singer has been vocal about his addiction and mental health struggles during a 2021 interview on The Diary of a CEO podcast.
“I was worried how far my rock bottom was going to be. Where’s rock bottom for me? And you would never have seen it. I’m very good at hiding it. No one would ever have seen it.”
He also puts in how the pressures of fame at such an early age affected him adding, “As a teen, the one thing you need is freedom to make choices and freedom to do stuff,” Liam reflected. “Although we could do anything we wanted, it seemed from the outside, that we were always locked in a room at night. And then it would be car, hotel room, stage, sing, locked. So, it was like they pulled the dust cloth off, let us out for a minute to go ‘Woohoo’ then it’s like ‘Get back underneath here!’”
