The group are known for their strong vocals and signature harmonies, as well as their representation of female empowerment and unity.
Having sold 70M records worldwide, they're now the 3rd biggest girl group of all time. Little Mix has proven multiple times that they're one of the most talented and hardworking artists in the industry. They made history in 2021 as the first female girl group to have won the Brit for 'Best Group'.
The group is currently on hiatus to focus on themselves and work on solo careers. A comeback with more music as a trio has been promised by all three of the girls for the future.

Beep beep
I'm stuck in traffic, bumper to bumper babe
My leather jacket smells like your aftershave
All I wanna do is get your hands up on my boots, hey

Too busy dreaming, of jumping on your
To get me turning good, you need to check under the hood babe

'Cause I love, love, love making love to you
But I'm stuck, stuck, stuck on the 202
Won't you help me, help me?

"Beep Beep" by Little Mix is a song about being stuck in traffic, daydreaming about the person you love, and longing for their touch. The opening lines of the song, "I'm stuck in traffic, bumper to bumper babe, my leather jacket smells like your aftershave," sets the scene of being stuck in traffic and the scent of the person they love lingers around them. The chorus, "Cause I love, love, love making love to you, but I'm stuck, stuck, stuck on the 202, won't you help me, help me? Beep beep," conveys the message that the singer is longing for their partner but their current situation is preventing them from being with them. The bridge, "I'll push that pedal 'til it's gone through the floor, I'm burning reds like I would run from the law," shows their determination to be with their lover and willingness to take risks to make it happen.
The song's upbeat tempo and catchy chorus make it a fun, danceable tune. The repetition of "beep beep" anchors the song and makes it memorable. The lyrics are relatable and convey the desperation and longing to be with someone despite obstacles.
