Review
Louis Tomlinson totally stepped up his game with his debut solo album "Walls," which dropped on January 31, 2020. Moving away from the pop sounds of One Direction, Louis brought a fresh indie and Britpop vibe that honestly shows off his evolution as an artist. He poured his heart into this project, drawing inspiration from the music he loved in his younger days and dedicating it to his fans. With tracks like “Two of Us” and the title track “Walls,” he dives deep into personal themes, exploring loss, heartbreak, and the grit it takes to push forward.
As for its performance, "Walls" made a splashy entry, landing at number nine on the US Billboard 200 chart in its first week! It's been a hit in several countries, resonating with fans across the globe and getting lots of love for its realness and emotional depth. Despite facing some tough personal times during its production, including the loss of his beloved mom and sister, Louis stayed true to his artistic vision. This album is not just a collection of songs but a heartfelt expression of Louis's own journeys and struggles, showing off his maturity and dedication both as a musician and a person. Way to go, Louis! - Melody
