One direction’s Niall Horan, is expected to be the first member of one direction to go solo. Many had expected Harry Styles to be the first, but it seems to be Horan who has signed his own deal with Simon Cowell’s Cowell’s label, Syco.
According to The Sun, Niall is set to release his solo next year ahead of his band mates, whilst the others go in different directions. Horan is set to be managed by by modest, the same company that were behind the success of one direction. Credited with the quality of good looks and writing talent, the one direction star who has kept a low profile for a while, has been in the studio writing and is scheduled to to sign a deal in the weeks ahead.
The group boy band Horan once was a part of is unlikely to ever rediscover the spark that kept them together as a group, after going their separate ways for a while now. Their interpersonal relationships have marked by bad blood and clashes in the past year, pushing the unified direction they once had in different directions. Horan will be the first to go solo the way things are panning out. Former band mate, Harry Style, is focusing his attention on movies, with a role in star wars and world war epic, Dunkirk.
As for Louise Tomlinson, he is planning a different path as a producer and presenter, according to The Sun Newspaper today. Handsome Liam Payne- the coolest of the lot- is reportedly without management, and may still be rapped up in his new romance with separated, and soon to be divorcee, Cheryl Versina. The boyband group announced their break last year, but it now looks like the break is not likely to bring them back together, unless something dramatic takes place.
Propelled to international success by social media, one direction as a band achieved 6 Brit Awards, four MTV music awards, and were the first band in the U.S billboard 200 to have their album debut at no 1. The news that Horan will be the first to go solo, is perhaps the final confirmation that each member of this band that captured the attention of the music world , have finally found the sol direction they each wish to pursue in their new respective careers.
