About Liam Payne’s death
Payne was found dead on October 16 after falling from the balcony of his third-floor room at the Casa Sur Hotel in the Argentinian capital.
His death, aged 31, prompted a global outpouring of grief and condolences from family, former bandmates, fans and others.
Hotel staff had called emergency services twice to report a guest “overwhelmed by drugs and alcohol” who was “destroying” a hotel room.
Payne had spoken publicly about struggles with substance abuse and coping with fame from an early age.
“Do No Wrong”
The musician had collaborated on “Do No Wrong” with North Carolina singer Pounds prior to his death, with three versions set for release, including a live mix and an a cappella single.
Payne’s last solo work, a single called “Teardrops”, was released in March, with a second album teased at the time.
The day after his death, Pounds posted a montage of tributes to him on Instagram, including a video of Payne in the recording studio for the track.
“I can’t believe I’m writing this post. I can’t believe you are gone in this way,” he wrote.
