Data Insight

Harry Styles released his self-titled debut in May 2017 after One Direction went on hiatus, co-writing every track with a core team that included Jeff Bhasker, Mitch Rowland, Tyler Johnson, and Alex Salibian. The record leans hard into classic and soft rock, trading the pop machinery of his former group for live-band arrangements and looser, guitar-driven songwriting. "Sign of the Times" served as the lead single and became the album's biggest hit, reaching number four on the Billboard Hot 100. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.

Harry Styles is the debut solo album by Harry Styles, released May 12, 2017. Executive produced by Jeff Bhasker, it was a deliberate departure from One Direction's pop sound, drawing on classic rock, soft rock, and folk. 'Sign of the Times' became a #1 UK hit. All 10 tracks were co-written by Styles with his core team.
