They really do seem committed to Little Mix and I'm guessing at this point RCA/Modest might be a bit more lenient and let them explore more options outside of just being in the group? Seems like the best of both worlds, being able to have the girls explore their own sound and music creatively and then coming back to Little Mix for their own music. Exciting! Thoughts?

I'm hoping it does and we get new LM material every couple of years or so, but also having their own things to follow. I just can't gauge how it's going to work because I'm so used to groups just disbanding, splitting or going on "hiatus" forever. But excited none the less. Especially for solo Jade or Leigh

We'd be so spoiled having LM albums and solo music from all the girls or whatever other solo projects they decide to do!

I was so shocked too, especially as I thought they'd all remain with Modest for solo projects, hopefully Jade and Perrie venture out of there too, they all have so much potential.

Almost definitely means nothing, i'm sure, but maybe we'll get announcements for Jade and Perrie in the coming weeks, even if it is with a different management company! i'm so glad they're at a point in their careers where they can start doing passion projects.

Helloooo and welcome!! Thank you for actually joining I hope you're right in regards to Jade and Perrie. Going back to an earlier post.. I guess the BLACKPINK situation can be considered very similar, despite that being the norm for K-Pop groups, it's really interesting to see if a Western group CAN do that too. Very excited about whatever is next.

I feel like this will be the case with the girls also ! This post has been edited by troylovesmusic: Mar 14 2021, 12:04 PM

She kind of ignored the question of what would happen with the band if she had a baby. She said she'd like to do a lot more films.
