"Confetti" is a song by British girl group Little Mix. It was released through RCA UK on 4 November 2020, as the third promotional single from their sixth studio album of the same name. The song was written by MNEK, Kamille, Maegan Cottone and TMS, and was produced by the latter. "Confetti" is a pop song with elements of R&B, pop rap and hip hop, which sees the group celebrating independence after a break-up and their individual enjoyment of life.
A partially re-recorded remix of the track featuring American rapper Saweetie was released on 30 April 2021, as the fourth and final single from the album. It was Little Mix's first single release as a trio, with the removal of former member Jesy Nelson's vocals after her departure from the group in December 2020. A music video for the remix was released on the same day as the song's release, and features UK drag queens Bimini, Tayce and A'Whora.[3] In 2022, it was cited as a Gay anthem.[4]
"Confetti" received generally positive reviews from music critics, with many praising its feel-good vibe and self-sufficient lyrics. The remix was described as an "explosive return" as this was their first release of 2021 and as a trio. The album version peaked within the top 40 of the UK Official Singles Chart at number 23, while the remix reached a new peak of number 9. The song was later certified platinum in the country by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and certified gold in Brazil. The song won "Best Music Video" at the 2021 Music Daily Awards Hungary.[5]
