繼上一張錄音室專輯《25》發行後,愛黛兒 Adele 睽違整整6年,才終於在2021年11月19日發行了第四張錄音室專輯《30》。當年的神曲〈Hello〉席捲各大排行榜仍歷歷在目,賈斯珀還覺得彷彿是昨天才剛發行一樣。
2019年,Adele結束了與前夫 Simon Konecki 三年的婚姻,兩人和平分手,斷開了長跑近10年的愛情。婚變激發 Adele 的創作靈感,將《30》專輯大部分的歌曲寫給了現年9歲的兒子 Angelo,向兒子告解自己的愧疚,Adele 也跟兒子解釋離婚的真相,其實並非父親單方的離開,而是自己所做的抉擇。

這首〈My Little Love〉也是 Adele 獻給兒子的單曲之一,向兒子闡述自己的內疚,是《30》專輯中賈斯珀認為感情最為濃厚的一首歌曲。據說兒子的 Angelo 聲音,是來自於 Adele 向其解釋離婚的原因時所錄製的。可以聽到母子兩人一來一往的對話,親情溢於言表,讓賈斯珀揪心不已。
