Little Mix, the voices behind your high school bangers are finally back with a new single featuring Nicki Minaj and it’s called ‘Woman Like Me’.
Woman Like Me looks to be the first single off the group’s forthcoming studio album – their fifth in total, following the 2016 album Glory Days.
Sneakily, Minaj actually teased the song earlier last month with a simple tweet that read: “A [rose emoji] for all the women like me.”
A🌹for all the women like me.

Anywhoo, with rose emojis aplenty Little Mix also dropped the official release date for the tune – October 12.

The album art – a portrait of Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall, and Perrie Edwards is just simply stunning.

Chatting to Manchester Evening News back in August, Thirwall said their forthcoming album is her favourite, so far.
“This is definitely my favourite album, you can tell it’s come from us,” she said.
“There’s a lot of female empowerment, lots of songs give a nod to being yourself. Through working with Stonewall I’ve become a better writer.
“I’m really excited for this album. We’re definitely ready to release something, we’re missing having our music out there.”
Stonewall is a LGBTQ+ charity based in the United Kingdom, founded by Sir Ian McKellen and Michael Cashman. In August, Thirwall marched with Stonewall at Manchester Pride.
