K-pop girl group BLACKSWAN has officially returned with their electrifying new single “I LIKE IT HOT”, marking a bold entrance into the summer music scene. Released on May 21 at 6 PM KST, the high-energy track is accompanied by a visually stunning music video filmed in the vibrant city of Dubai.
“I LIKE IT HOT” serves as the title track of BLACKSWAN’s third single album, which features four songs: the main track and its instrumental, along with a remix version of “Roll Up” and its instrumental counterpart. The lead single delivers an addictive beat paired with an explosive chorus, reflecting the group’s dynamic image and multicultural energy.
The music video, directed by the renowned Lee Sa-gang and her team, captures BLACKSWAN’s powerful performance against the glamorous backdrop of Dubai’s cityscape. With heat radiating from both the location and the members’ charisma, the MV perfectly complements the song’s summer anthem vibe.
This comeback features BLACKSWAN’s current lineup: Fatou (Senegal), NVee (USA), Gabi (Brazil-Germany), and Sriya (India) — continuing their mission to represent cultural diversity in the K-pop world. The group made headlines last year for being the only active K-pop act with a fully non-Korean lineup, and they’ve been breaking barriers ever since.
Ahead of the official release, BLACKSWAN premiered the song at the 2025 Hainan Water Bomb Festival, where fans got a first taste of the sizzling new track. Following the launch, international artists also showed support, including Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men, who left a “hot” emoji on BLACKSWAN’s post — signaling the group’s growing global influence.
Fans can now stream the full “I LIKE IT HOT” MV on YouTube and explore more content from the group on their official social media platforms.
