# 1 ​Harry Styles, 'Harry Styles'

Harry Styles has proven himself a force to be reckoned with out of all the One Direction members, using classic rock influences to drive the sound on his self-titled album. It was a risk that paid off, even if it meant becoming a meme while filming your debut solo video. From the earnest “Two Ghosts” to the giddiness of “Kiwi,” Styles proved he can diversify his sound enough to satisfy fans young and old. –Brooke Bunce
