Have always thought they’d work well with Nicki

I’m not really that fussed about another feature. 1) because the girls have wanted this for a very long time and 2) their past features were all added on after the fact so we still have the original version to listen to. It’ll be interesting this time to have the song originally released with the rap already in place

I do wish it didn’t have Nicki on it too but a shame long as it’s a bop and a hit I’m here for it.

Yes "another feature"...

Who honestly cares? Why do you care? laugh.gif

Honestly, I'd really like to see them release another single that is just them.

I mean...

Little Mix feat. Jason Derulo
Little Mix feat. Sean Paul
Little Mix feat. Charlie Puth (Not a single, but nevertheless it got a brief push in its own right)
Little Mix feat. Kid Ink (Remix) (US Single / Replacement version on Glory Days re-issue)
Little Mix feat. Machine Gun Kelly
Little Mix feat. Stormzy
CNCO & Little Mix
Cheat Codes & Little Mix
Little Mix feat. Nicki Minaj

... is reaching overkill levels. Their only single that has no associations with a collaborator since 2016 is Shout Out to My Ex!

So yeah, I care to an extent and I can see why other people are raising eyebrows about it at this point. I love/like all of the above songs, don't get me wrong, but it's just a feeling I have that I would really love to see them do another single where the focus is purely on them again. At this stage I feel like that would be more special than yet another collaboration, which is quite funny. Hopefully that will come after this lead single.

Having said all of that, something that is obviously different about "Little Mix feat. Nicki Minaj" is that it'll be their first female collaboration since Missy Elliott, so at least that's a more interesting choice than going with another male artist.

But every single one of those were post-album releases and "rent-a-rappers" (bar Jason Derulo & Charlie Puth) which is unfortunately what is needed for a lot of pop acts nowadays to get a hit post album release/something to freshen up the campaigns etc.. It's just a formula that works. We still have the solo versions available for those who don't want those features.

I find collaborations interesting, personally. I enjoy seeing how their pop works with features.

Jason & Nicki (and Charlie if you want to include that laugh.gif) will be their only features on singles that weren't "tacked on" just for a release. But the other singles, as I said will have the versions without the rappers so it shouldn't really matter imo. laugh.gif

Ughhhh sorry. *takes off stan glasses*

I mean obviously there's the original versions that exist for some of those songs, but those aren't the versions that "see the light of day" in the sense of being singles / receiving music videos, so the main exposure comes in the form of the collaborations. It doesn't really matter about the context of their existence, nevertheless it's been a near constant stream of "Little Mix feat." moments and I think that's reached overkill to the extent that them collaborating with other artists isn't a particularly eventful occurrence any more.

It's totally fine that there's fans who appreciate their collabs and would probably like to see many more occur, but still, I think it's just as valid that there's fans who'd like to see more singles that are simply just "Little Mix" again. I honestly believe they could push post-album singles without a collaborator and have a success with them if they were to actually try it, I don't think it's as essential for a hit as is claimed. I feel like they deserve some more credit in terms of their own popularity and abilities at this stage.

So yeah... release something by yourselves challenge, do that challenge - my hopes for this era. x

P.S. Nicki had better SERVE on this. I disagree with the consensus that her recent features are particularly strong.

I think more than anything the feature thing represents the charts / mainstream music in 2018. The chart is in general much more feature heavy than ever before!

I agree with Jonjo in that all of their features have been post-album, riding on the success of what's already come from the campaign, so it's not like they've relied on feature artists to 'do them a favour' in terms of getting a hit.

We haven't had a feature as a lead single, and it seems like it's a collaboration that they, personally, wanted to do. I don't think they're relying on Nicki's name to make an impact on the charts because they've proven they can do it solo already with the likes of Black Magic, Shout Out to My Ex and Touch.

They should release a song that’s similar vibe to Side to Side!

Love that artwork. The old logo was always terrible, this minimal look is much better.
