“Gloves Up” is the eighth track off of Little Mix’s sixth album Confetti and has similar themes to their fifth album, LM5. It references feminism and breaking down barriers and is the only song on Confetti to do so, a sharp turn from the prevalent topic of female empowerment on LM5. There is an extended boxing metaphor that is apparent on the song that imply they are willing to fight for their rights rather than stand by and do nothing. The subject matter of feminism and girl power appears throughout Little Mix’s discography
