Atlantic Records multi-platinum singer-songwriter, KIIARA, has teamed up with DJ Martin Jensen for the Remix of her single “So Sick” ft blackbear, out today. “So Sick” arrived earlier this month with Kiiara’s debut album lil kiiwi, and received instant wide spread acclaim. Entertainment Weekly stated, “[’So Sick,’] is a bittersweet breakup song that gives the ‘Gold’ singer’s usual blend of electropop and trap a breezy twist” while Pitchfork labeled the project “a promising reintroduction that shows her emotional and melodic strengths.”

“’So Sick’ is a playful song about my relationship with blackbear back in 2016,” Kiiara says about the single. “We dated for a lil and this is a look into that. We stayed friends thru it all even tho I was blocked for a solid 2 years lolll. Bear is incredibly talented and he really brought this song to life.”
The full length project arrives on the heels of Kiiara’s impressive recent singles “I Still Do,” “Numb (feat. DeathbyRomy and PVRIS)” and “Never Let You.” “I Still Do” was met with widespread critical acclaim upon release, with Refinery 29 encouraging readers to “dance out your feelings to the tune of Kiiara’s all-too-relevant ‘I Still Do’” and MTV labeling the track “an infectious summer bop dripping with catchy vocals.” “Never Let You” followed the edgy track, garnering praise from Idolator and UPROXX, who included the song in their Best New Pop Music round-up and stated, “Kiiara has positioned herself as a strong songwriter.”
