Little Mix have released their newest single Not a Pop Song from their upcoming album Confetti. This is their third single off of the groups sixth studio album, due out the 6th of November. The band announced the single on social media, telling their fans; “This is just the first taste of what we’ve got coming on #Confetti… hope you’re ready for more.”
The new track is already causing a stir as the lyrics of the song seem to be throwing digs at entertainment mogul, Simon Cowell. The lyrics to the song are; “I don’t do what Simon says / Get the message cuz it’s read / That’s just life it never plays fair / Said to follow any dream, be a puppet on a string / Works for you but that isn’t me.” Which seems to be a link to the band leaving Simon Cowell’s label, SYCO, in 2018, just before the release of their album LM5.
A source close to the band told the Metro: “The girls wanted to do something tongue-in-cheek about their past and taking control of their careers with this new album Confetti – their first with new label RCA. It’s not bitchy – and isn’t meant in a bitchy way at all. They think Simon will see the funny side of it – as they know he loves attention and will think it’s all playful. It’s about them growing up and becoming women in a way.”
The new single comes just after the band announced they will be releasing a tour film of their iconic 2019 LM5 Tour in cinemas around the world on November 21st and 22nd. LM5: The Tour Film will show a recording of the groups’ last show of the tour in London’s O2 arena. The LM5 tour saw Perrie, Jesy, Jade and Leigh-Anne take on 40 arenas around Europe. The tour sold 400,000 tickets, including five iconic sold out shows at the O2 London.
