KATSEYE says it’s going to be a “Gnarly” Summer, especially with Ice Spice on the new remix that dropped Friday (June 6).
“Oh my god, this song’s so lit,” KATSEYE quoted the song’s lyrics on Instagram underneath the remix’s gnarly cover art featuring an anonymous hand ready to cut into a double decker sandwich.
The six-piece girl group – featuring members Daniela, Lara, Manon, Megan, Sophia and Yoonchae – originally dropped “Gnarly” in April. The hyper-pop hit became the group’s career-first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at No. 92 last month. “Gnarly” will be featured on its sophomore EP BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, due June 27 via HYBE x Geffen.
Megan said in a recent Billboard interview that “it’s a ‘Gnarly’ Summer,” which means it’s all about “not being afraid of being cringe … letting your intrusive thoughts win,” she elaborated, while Lara chimed in to say it’s also about “being very wild — and a little bit messy.”
The 2025 Billboard 21 Under 21 honorees will perform “Gnarly” at the 2025 Kids’ Choice Awards on June 21, which will be hosted by Tyla.
For Ice Spice, the “Gnarly” remix marks the Bronx MC’s first musical release of the year following her 2024 debut album Y2K! and the deluxe edition, Y2K!: I’m Just a Girl. The 10-track LP included Hot 100-charting singles “Think U the Shit (Fart)” and “Did It First” with Central Cee. It reached No. 18 on the Billboard 200 and No. 3 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
