‘Mamma Mia’—A Swagger-Filled, Addictive Title Track
The spotlight-stealer is title track “Mamma Mia”, an earworm packed with pulsing beats and izna’s newfound confidence. World-renowned producer TEDDY—known for crafting mega-hits for BLACKPINK and 2NE1—helmed the project, giving it a sleek, minimal sound with maximum groove.
