Liam Gallagher has signed a publishing deal for his upcoming solo album and has been described as “making progress” on the LP.

The former Oasis frontman announced back in August that he is set to release a solo album via major label Warner Bros next year, saying that he will “probably fuck off forever” if the record fails.

Gallagher had previously denied reports that he was releasing a solo album, saying that he wouldn’t do so because he’s “not a c*nt”. He later tweeted: “It’s official, I’m a c*nt”.


Billboard reports that Gallagher has penned a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell, with Mike Smith, managing director of Warner/Chappell Music UK saying of the news: “I am so pleased to be able to welcome Liam to the Warner/Chappell Family. He is one of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll stars that this country has ever produced. It is thrilling to see him develop as a writer and these songs will take him to new levels of success and recognition.”

The report stated that Gallagher has been “making progress” on his solo record.
