On “MORE,” KOTA! is done negotiating with half-effort. Out today, the Los Angeles pop artist’s new dance-pop single captures the moment when asking for more becomes choosing yourself, anchored by one blunt ultimatum: “I want more… or bye.”

The decision unfolds as KOTA! moves from relaxed, rap-led verses into a powerful pop chorus and a decisive bridge. The contrast allows her to be playful, vulnerable, and resolute at once, giving “MORE” emotional weight beneath its dance-pop pulse.

"'MORE' is me drawing a line. It isn't angry — it's the moment you realize your peace is worth more than someone's half-effort," KOTA! says. "I wanted it to help people realize they can have 'more'!"

Co-written and produced by Matt Attard—whose credits include work on Happy and Echo, the solo EPs by Jin of BTS—“MORE” frames KOTA!’s mix of conversational rap, full-force vocals, and girl-grunge edge in sleek pop production while keeping her personality and bite intact.

“MORE” also opens an ongoing creative collaboration between KOTA! and Attard. Two additional original songs they created together are set to follow later this year.

An official music video for “MORE” is also set to follow this summer.
