It has been confirmed that Fifth Harmony will be releasing their new single 'Bo$$' on July 7th, and the pre-order for the single will be made available at midnight on June 6th! Confirmation of the single release can be found here, and the pre-order announcement was made on their Instagram page. According to that article the single was co-written by Zara Larsson, who many of us know from winning BJSC!

Their EP was very good so I'm looking forward to listening to new material from them!

No, this is the artwork on the iTunes pre-order although it is probably just a placeholder:



The pre-order is already top 70 on US iTunes which is very good! ohmy.gif

Hope it is just a placeholder, not a fan of the artwork at all!

Not a fan based on this snippet but I think it'll probably grow on me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isXyg_2PsdU

Artwork



I don't mind it for simple but effective and the girl in the centre looks suitably fierce.

Agreed - I dread to think if they're going to be this awkward in the music video!

Getting awful "Gentleman" teas unsure.gif

Not what I'm looking for from them.

It's definitely better than 'Gentleman' for me, I'd compare it more to 'Move' which is a much better thing. Even though I was underwhelmed by 'Move' originally, it is one of my favourite Little Mix singles now and I think 'Bo$$' is a interesting change in sound for them.

It sounds like a Little Mix reject. It's alright until it gets to the chorus which doesn't go anywhere.

The pre-order strategy is definitely working for this so far, it's doing very well on iTunes around the world following its release today! They do seem to have quite an international fanbase that has allowed them to go top 20 in The Netherlands top 30 in New Zealand, top 100 in Australia and top 200 in Germany for example, so I wonder how well it would do here.

I don't think they'll take off in the UK with this as a lead single. The Saturdays, Little Mix and Neon Jungle have larger followings and I don't see there being room for another girlband just yet.

I'm not really sure on this, I like the verses but the chorus is so weak and the lyrics are pretty bad. Also, it really reminds me of Lipgloss by Lil' Mama!

Their massive fanbase is quite odd, they didn't win XF US and were practically always bottom 2 but they have such a huge following on twitter! They just kinda came out of nowhere.

This is definitely 'Move' inspired but it actually reminds me more of The Pussycat Dolls than Little Mix, it sounds like something that would be on their second album (similar in style to 'In Person' etc.)

I can't say I love it, but it is certainly their best original material so far. I am willing to let it grow also.

What a fantastic video! Very simple but works perfectly and like you say, it really makes the song better.

Love the video, really works with the song. Hope this can do well for the girls in America, would also be nice for them to have a decent sized hit this side of the pond.
