LM5 is the upcoming fifth studio album by British girl group Little Mix, set to be released on 16 November 2018, by Syco Music and Columbia Records. The album's title, artwork and release date were revealed on 15 October 2018 through the group's social media.[1] The album will be available in standard, deluxe and super deluxe editions—the deluxe edition will contain four bonus tracks, while the super deluxe edition will contain the bonus tracks along with a hardback book with handwritten notes from the group.[2] The group stated that they were inspired to name the album LM5 because they "love what [their fans have] named each of our eras over the years".[1] This is based on the common practice by fans of an act of promoting a forthcoming unnamed album on social media with a hashtag stating the act's initials and album number.[3]

The album's lead single, "Woman Like Me" featuring Trinidadian-born American rapper Nicki Minaj, was released on 12 October 2018.[4] The tracks "Strip" and "Woman's World" were later mentioned in a Vice article.[5]

It was announced on November 9 that Little Mix left Syco, and they were moved to RCA Records to release the album.[6][7]
