KATSEYE’S New Single, “Gabriela,” Is Out Now
Today, KATSEYE dropped “Gabriela,” the second single from their forthcoming EP, BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, which is set for June 27 release via HYBE x Geffen Records. “Gabriela” plays like a Gen Z “Jolene” — a side-eye warning wrapped in hip-swaying rhythms — and features the group’s first Spanish verse, which is delivered by Daniela, who is a first-generation Latina American. Andrew Watt (Lady Gaga, Jungkook) and John Ryan (Sabrina Carpenter) produced. Listen to “Gabriela” HERE.
“In the official video for “Gabriela,” which stars Jessica Alba, KATESEYE pays tribute to telenovelas, a beloved cornerstone of Latino culture.” Alba plays the high-powered CEO of Gabriela Enterprises. When she announces she’s searching for a successor to take over the reins of her company, the boardroom erupts into chaos as each member of KATSEYE tries to claw their way to the top. Directed by Andrew Thomas Huang (Björk, FKA Twigs) the video made its broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop and on the Paramount Times Square billboards. Watch the drama unfold HERE.
“Our music video for ‘Gabriela’ is vibrant, colorful, dramatic, and full of heart,” explains KATSEYE. “We leaned into the world of telenovelas because they’re iconic and over-the-top in the best possible way – from the acting to hair and wardrobe. We tried to honor that spirit while having fun with the concept. It’s all love, all homage, and definitely all drama!”
KATSEYE – comprising Daniela (Cuban/Venezuelan-American, from Atlanta, GA), Lara (Indian, from New York, NY), Manon (Ghanaian-Italian, from Zurich, Switzerland), Megan (Chinese-American, from Honolulu, HI), Sophia (Manila, Philippines), and Yoonchae (Seoul, South Korea) – will perform “Gnarly,” the EP’s first single, at the 2025 Kids Choice Awards tomorrow, June 20. “Gnarly” has already amassed over 100 million combined global streams. “There has not been a KATSEYE song like this before…It’s abrasive, camp, totally chaotic,” said The FADER, which later named the track as a contender for “song of the summer 2025.”
The group’s “Gnarly” remixes – one with Ice Spice and a second with Lara of KATSEYE, Lancey Foux, and Slush Puppy – have also won acclaim, including an appearance on Rolling Stone’sSongs You Need to Know playlist. Billboard declared, “KATSEYE Heats Up ‘Gnarly’ Summer with Ice Spice Remix.”
