From our trainee days and pre-debut era, we would sing along to his songs, and now, it feels surreal to have collaborated with him on &#x27;TANGA.&#x27; We&#x27;ve been preparing this song and keeping it a secret since last year, and we’re so excited to finally share it with you all soon,” the group shared in a collective statement.The single &quot;centers on a love that borders on naiveté, a relatable feeling that some people go through at some point in their life. Balancing a humorous, light vibe with a sense of introspection, the song tells the all-too-familiar story of choosing to ignore the red flags in a relationship just to hold on a little longer.&quot;“When we first listened to the song, it made us feel less alone. It’s like a reminder that it’s okay to go through a phase where you feel ‘tanga’ in love, as long as you eventually find your way back. The contrast between the playful sound and the introspective lyrics makes the song even more special: it’s a journey of realizing your worth. And in the end, you see that the people who truly care for you, like your family and friends, have always been there to support you,” KAIA added about the song.The group also shared its experience collaborating with Tabudlo.“The whole process felt so organic. ...He encouraged us to be looser and freer in creating our own ad-libs and melodies. Zack also introduced us to new styles and techniques, which made the experience even more exciting. Seeing how he works and how effortlessly he brings a song to life was truly inspiring,” they said.KAIA is currently gearing up for its upcoming extended play.

According to the five-piece act, it's a dream come true to collaborate with Tabudlo.
