Salute is the second studio album by British girl group Little Mix, released on 8 November 2013 through Syco Music and Columbia Records. [4] The album was mostly co-written by Little Mix, who stated that they were more involved in the development of this album compared to their debut album DNA .

Contents

Musically, the album sees Little Mix approach a more R&B-influenced sound while retaining their previous pop sound of their debut album. Salute also sees the quartet experiment more with 90s production sounds, with elements of hip-hop, teen-pop, and electronic dance music influences from the 2000s. The album contains lyrics focused around themes such as girl power, mental health, self-love, breakups, insecurity, and female empowerment.

The album received generally positive reviews from critics, with some praising the group for their vocal harmonies. Salute charted in nineteen music markets, including reaching the top ten in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Ireland, and the USA. It was named as one of the best-selling girl group albums in the UK between 1994 and 2019. To promote the album, the group embarked on The Salute Tour in 2014. A planned North American leg was cancelled as the group opted instead to work on their next album, Get Weird .

Background

In an interview with Digital Spy in March 2013, Little Mix stated that they wanted their second album to have a more R&B sound. [5] Group member Jesy Nelson added: "I personally want to put a lot more dancey stuff in there. As in, one of the songs that comes on in a club that makes you want to dance. Not that David Guetta sound, but more R&B – a bit like Eve and Gwen Stefani's "Let Me Blow Ya Mind". They also revealed that they would be starting to write material for the new album in the coming months. [5] On 19 September 2013, Little Mix held a livestream to announce that they had finished recording their second album and it was going to be sent to be mixed. In the same livestream the girls announced that the first single "Move" would be premiered on radio on 23 September. They also sang an a capella version of "Little Me".

On 4 October, Little Mix uploaded a video to their official YouTube page, announcing that their second album would be called Salute and would be available for pre-order on 7 October. [6] The album was released in the UK on 11 November 2013 and released in the US on 4 February 2014. [7]
