Background and release

edit

Prior to the single's announcement, the artwork and lyrics were leaked online. Little Mix announced the songs title and revealed the artwork on the October 9, 2016 on Twitter and Instagram, also announcing that the song will be performed for the first time on their formation show The X Factor (UK). The song was released globally following their performance after the show.[2]

After "Shout Out To My Ex" was released speculation had surfaced about the song's lyrics being inspired by the breakup of Perrie Edwards and Zayn Malik, whose relationship had ended in 2015. The rumours were speculated even more after the music video features a scene with man who shares a similar resemblance to the singer. The original lyrics to the song were also altered and shared references to who some believed were aimed at Gigi Hadid, who was in a relationship with him at the time. The original version included explicit lyrics which were changed.[3][4]

Following the release of the song, Little Mix were accused of copying the song "Ugly Heart", which had been released by the British-American-Canadian girl group G.R.L., in 2014. On social media, some people had pointed out some similarities between both of the songs and the accusations resulted in a hashtag trending on twitter called "#ShoutOutToUglyHeart". The group denied the accusations during a radio station in Belgium when band member Jade Thirlwall commented "how every song is going to have a similar chord and sequence, with slightly similar lyrics and melodies. It happens all the time".[5][6][7]

Composition and production

edit

"Shout Out To My Ex" was written by group members Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, and Jesy Nelson, alongside Chris Dunn, Edvard Førre Erfjord, Camille Purcell, Iain James, Henrik Michelsen and produced by Electric. Critics described the song as a dance-pop and power-pop song with lyrics about moving on after a relationship comes to an ends and moving forward in life towards better things, while leaving the past where it should be. It has since been regarded as a girl power and breakup anthem.[8][9]

According to sheet music published by Sony/ATV Music Publishing on Musicnotes.com, "Shout Out to My Ex" is composed in the key of F major and set in common time at a moderate tempo of 126 beats per minute. Little Mix's voices range from F3 to a high A5.[1]

Critical reception

edit

"Shout Out To My Ex" received positive reviews when released with Billboard describing it as "the ultimate girl-power anthem".[8] Renowned for Sound's Michael Smith described it as a "dance pop track" and gave praise to their vocals and how the vocalising near the climax of the song was a highlight.[2] Idolator's Rachel Sonis described the song as a "kiss-off anthem at its finest" and remarked that it felt like "a confident comeback for the group".[10] Emilee Linder from Fuse said that the song was a "Taylor Swift–like move to play into the media's narrative", and praised Perrie's "husky vocals".[11]

Attitude ranked the song #9 on their list of 32 greatest Little Mix singles writing "although it has a very simple pop formula, the blissful chorus still works as that fist-pumping earworm."[12] Metro Weekly's Hugh McIntyre described the song as "pop perfection" and listed it as also one of the best tracks of the past decade.[13]

edit

"Shout Out to My Ex" debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart, with 95,000 combined sales to give the band their fourth UK number one of their careers, following "Cannonball" in 2011, "Wings" in 2012 and "Black Magic" in 2015.[14] It was the third single from 2016 to debut straight in at the top of the UK charts with only four days of sales tracking.[15] "Shout Out to My Ex" was also the first UK number one single of 2016 with a female lead, as the three women with number one singles earlier in the year, Kyla, and Halsey, were all featured artists.[16] It remained at number one the following week, making it Little Mix's second song (after "Black Magic") to spend multiple weeks at number 1.[17] It was certified silver by the BPI for selling over 200,000 copies in its second week.[18] It spent a third week before being replaced by "Rockabye" by Clean Bandit.

Music video

Directed by Sarah Chatfield, it sees the members hanging out at a trailer and later chilling around the poolside. They are seen driving through a desert along a highway lined with lavender-coloured trees. They drive pass a hitch-hiker who some speculate shares a resemblance to Zayn Malik, who dated Perrie Edwards before their split in 2015.[27][28]

Edwards, Pinnock, Nelson, and Edwards proceed to throw away the gifts they received from their exes to the curb. The group then reunites for a group hug in a show of girl power and unity, and hold hands walking towards to pink sunset to finish. Filming took place in June 2016 whilst the girls were on their Get Weird Tour. As of 2024, it has been streamed over 482 million times on YouTube.[29][30]
