KATSEYE Releases Ice Spice 'Gnarly' Remix Ahead of Global EP

KATSEYE, a global girl group formed through HYBE and Geffen's The Debut: Dream Academy, has gained significant attention with their breakout single "Gnarly," which combines bold, chaotic, and unapologetic energy. The track, which charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and amassed over 100 million global streams, was recently remixed featuring rapper Ice Spice, blending her distinctive flow with the song's club-driven beat, generating mixed reactions from fans. The remix has been praised for its dynamic and rhythm-forward evolution, although some listeners found it unnecessary or disliked the collaboration. KATSEYE's diverse lineup includes members from the U.S., Switzerland, the Philippines, South Korea, and more, contributing to their unique global appeal. Their sophomore EP, BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, featuring "Gnarly," is set for release on June 27, 2025, with the group slated to perform at the Kids’ Choice Awards and holding partnerships with brands like Glossier and Urban Outfitters. The remix and original track have been highlighted by outlets as potential songs of the summer, reflecting KATSEYE's rising influence in the pop and K-pop scenes.
