Migos join the list of Liam Payne solo album collaborators

Migos have confirmed that they've collaborated with Liam Payne.

In an interview ahead of the LA trio's recent show in London, Quavo from the group said: "I just came from [filming] a video today.

"My boy Liam from One Direction. Crazy vid. Crazy visuals. Crazy team. Cool guy... I wasn't even supposed to say that. It's gonna be a surprise though."

It follows him previously announcing that he's worked with Pharrell in the studio.

"Great few days with @pharrell pleasure working with you as always."

Liam Payne is the only member of One Direction who is yet to release a solo material.

He is also rumoured to have worked with Juicy J, after the rapper shared a picture of him, Liam and producer TM88 in the studio.

He wrote: "Little Song I wrote for fun yesterday."

The closest he's come to putting out new music was when he teased a clip of a song he "wrote for fun" on Instagram last year.

The seven-second video shows him in a hoodie miming along to three lines of a track.

Confirmation that he's filmed a video with Migos, who have also recently worked with Calvin Harris, DJ Khalid, Frank Ocean and Sean Paul, would suggest his first single isn't far away.

Liam signed a solo record deal with Capitol Records UK last July.

The 23-year-old said he was "really happy" to have signed to "such a prestigious label".

Solo material from all the other members of One Direction has gone into the top 10 in the UK.
