3. thank you, next , Ariana Grande

4. Woman’s World, Little Mix
Little Mix will always be the most empowering group of girls. Including four women, this girl band produces feminist bops on every album. This song is featured on their most recent album, LM5, and includes lyrics like: “If you never shouted to be heard, you ain’t lived in a woman’s world.”
5. Scars To Your Beautiful, Alessia Cara
