Sam Pounds Holds Back Liam Payne’s Final Single to Honor Family’s Wishes
Music producer Sam Pounds, who worked closely with Liam Payne on what would have been his last single, “Do No Wrong,” has decided to delay its release. Initially set to debut this Friday, the track will now remain unreleased until Payne’s family determines the right time to share it—if they choose to do so.
Pounds, a producer known for collaborations with stars like Jamie Foxx and Wiz Khalifa, announced on X, “Today I’m deciding to hold Do No Wrong and leave those liberties up to all family members. I want all proceeds to go to a charity of their choosing (or however they desire).” Pounds added that while he loves the track, he feels “it’s simply not the time yet” as Payne’s loved ones continue to mourn, saying, “We will all wait.”
Originally, Pounds had hoped the release could be a fitting tribute to Payne’s legacy. However, he later pulled back his posts about the single’s release, recognizing that the timing felt too soon after Payne’s tragic passing.
Payne, a beloved member of the former boy band One Direction, contributed to five chart-topping albums with the group and later pursued a solo career, releasing LP1 in 2019. His final project, a Netflix singing competition series called Building the Band, is also on hold as the music world and Payne’s family cope with his loss.
Liam Payne is remembered by his parents, Geoff and Karen, his sisters Ruth and Nicola, and his 7-year-old son, Bear.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
