Leigh-Anne Pinnock just dropped Friends and fans are already deep in detective mode.
The Little Mix alum’s latest single, from her upcoming debut album My Ego Told Me To, is not only catchy but laced with sharp, pointed lyrics that have listeners questioning: who is she really singing about?
From the very first lines, the song grabs attention. “I don’t want no new friends / People all pretend them are ya friends” and “Family turn enemies when I realize we not pon the same vibe” have fans pausing, replaying, and dissecting.
Social media is alive with theories. Some suggest the song is about old friendships gone sour, others hint at cryptic experiences from her Little Mix days.
Moreover, a few even jokingly speculate it could be a subtle diss to Jesy Nelson after connecting some dots.
Nelson, another former Little Mix member exited the band in 2020 and started her solo career after Pinnock’s allegedly leaked message surfaced online criticising Nelson for ‘Blackfishing.’
The timing adds even more intrigue. Dropping Friends ahead of her debut solo album makes it feel like a deliberate statement of independence and boundary-setting.
Fans are dissecting every lyric and every beat, calling the singer being in her “villain era” and “pre-plot-twist vibes.”
One thing is clear: whether personal reflection, a cryptic nod to the past, or a universal anthem about loyalty, Leigh-Anne is boldly staking her claim as a solo artist.
The 34-year-old singer's solo era is officially here and fans are captivated, curious, and eagerly waiting for the next move.
Pinnock's first solo album, My Ego Told Me To, is set to be released on Feb 20, 2026 for the fans.
