com/nX0e9qcNon — Sam Pounds (@iamsampounds) October 28, 2024 When news of Payne’s death broke, Sam Pounds paid tribute to his late collaborator on social media, sharing several videos of them hanging out, and Payne recording his vocals for the song. A post shared by Sam Pounds (@iamsampounds) Last week, Pounds shared a snippet of them in the studio listening to the song together. In his caption, Pounds revealed that Payne had wanted Chris Brown to feature on the track with them.
A post shared by Sam Pounds (@iamsampounds) Last week, it was revealed that Payne reportedly had pink cocaine and several other substances in his system at the time of his fatal balcony fall . Sources told ABC News that results of a partial autopsy showed he had “ pink cocaine ” – a drug typically made up of a mix of substances including methamphetamine, ketamine, MDMA and others – as well as cocaine, benzodiazepine and crack in his system. It has also been reported that the Buenos Aires police department have raided the CasaSur hotel in search of further evidence .
Payne’s death has triggered conversations about putting more protections in place for young artists, with songwriter Guy Chambers calling on the music industry to stop putting minors in boybands following his passing. Payne was 14 when he first auditioned for the X Factor , and 16 when he became a member of One Direction during the show’s 10th season. Liam Payne.

Where was this industry when you needed them? You were just a kid when you entered one of the toughest industries in the world.
Who was in your corner? Rest in peace my friend.” Bruce Springsteen has also said that the music industry puts “enormous pressures on young people” in the wake of Payne’s death, while Victoria Canal shared that, as an artist who feels “desperate” to achieve the success that Payne once had, feels duped by “the promise of what ‘success’ in this industry is.” A new petition has since been launched, calling for a new law to safeguard the mental well-being of artists in the music industry .
The petition has surpassed over 100,000 signatures. Related Topics Liam Payne One Direction Pop.
