Even though you’ve long attempted to avoid its influence, a portion of you has undoubtedly already been drawn into the expanding multiverse of Harry Styles. The English singer/songwriter has two eagerly anticipated film roles (in Don’t Worry Darling and My Policeman) coming up this year. His nail polish company, Pleasing, is also rapidly expanding. He was the first man to appear alone on the cover of Vogue. Additionally, the excitement surrounding his concerts frequently causes ticketing apps to crash. Styles is the most talked-about pop star on the planet some days. On other days, it seems like not enough people have heard of his music.
The reputation of styles ranges. He has been hailed as a leader in the fight against toxic masculinity and gender norms; his pearl necklaces, high-waisted jeans, and sweaters with fruit patterns stick in your head and ignite the deepest parts of you. His wide-ranging influences, which include artists like Fleetwood Mac, Peter Gabriel, Shania Twain, and Lizzo, have helped many of his most devoted fans expand their musical horizons. One of the many rising pleasures of following Styles’ five-year, meteoric rise into the hearts of people all over the world has been witnessing his transition from X-Factor glory with One Direction to performing at Wembley Stadium alone.
Styles released his self-titled debut the year after One Direction disbanded in 2016, playing more with the limits of rock ‘n’ roll than any of his former bandmates, who had all transitioned to mainstream pop. The results, which included songs like “Kiwi,” “Sign of the Times,” and “Woman,” demonstrated his remarkable imitation abilities and offered us all a taste of artistry that hasn’t quite been fully tamed. He swiftly abandoned the art of homage in favor of his own creation. Styles was more in control of his own grandeur on 2019’s Fine Line, and the songs sound so unmistakably like him. He delved deeply into listeners’ souls with a charming and seductive atmosphere that has now become a brand in itself.
