Rising global girl group KATSEYE has released their latest single, “Gabriela,” a genre-blending track that leans into Latin acoustic elements.
Directed by Andrew Thomas Huang, the accompanying music video sees Jessica Alba as a powerful CEO choosing her successor in a high-drama boardroom showdown, styled as a vibrant homage to classic telenovelas. The track also features the group’s first-ever Spanish-language verse, delivered by Cuban-Venezuelan American member Daniela.
“Our music video for ‘Gabriela’ is vibrant, colorful, dramatic, and full of heart,” the group said in a statement. “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—with members Daniela, Lara, Manon, Megan, Sophia, and Yoonchae—continues their genre-defying rise after the viral success of the divisive hyperpop single “Gnarly.”
“Gabriela” and “Gnarly” arrive ahead of the group’s forthcoming EP Beautiful Chaos, due out June 27 via HYBE x Geffen Records. Beautiful Chaos will also feature contributions from pop icon Charli XCX.
