Posthumous Song

The release of Liam Payne’s unreleased song “Do No More,” a collaboration with Grammy-winning artist Sam Pounds, has been postponed. Initially set to release this Friday, the song’s release was delayed as Sam Pounds expressed a desire to respect Payne’s family, allowing them space to mourn following his unexpected passing earlier this month.

Pounds, who posted a video of Payne singing the song, announced on X that he intends to leave the decision of the release timing to Payne’s family and direct all proceeds to a charity of their choice.

Fans have shown support for Pounds’ decision to delay the release, appreciating his sensitivity to the family’s wishes. Payne, a former member of One Direction who achieved fame after appearing on “The X Factor,” worked on multiple versions of “Do No More” with Pounds, including a live and an a cappella version.

The singer, known for his 2018 hit “For You” with Rita Ora and recent single “Teardrops,” had been preparing to return to music before his untimely death.

Updates

Liam Payne’s family is preparing to bring him home to the UK after his recent death in Argentina. Payne, the former One Direction member, reportedly passed away following a three-story fall at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires. His father, Geoff Payne, who traveled to Argentina two weeks ago, has now received permission from prosecutors to repatriate his son’s body, with the process expected to be completed within 48 hours.

Payne’s body was moved from the Buenos Aires morgue to the British Cemetery in the city while awaiting repatriation. Initially, his father was informed the process would take four to five days, but legal and forensic requirements delayed it. Toxicology and tissue tests were required as part of the investigation, which explored a suspected substance-induced “psychotic episode” but found no evidence of third-party involvement.

Forensic examinations reportedly revealed traces of cocaine and other substances in Payne’s body, including MDMA, ketamine, and benzodiazepine. Payne’s father has visited his son’s hotel suite, gathering personal belongings. Payne had been in Argentina with his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, who departed shortly before his passing. The family is now arranging for a funeral to take place in the UK.
