‘New DNA’ comes shortly after XG went viral in January with their dual singles ‘Shooting Star’ and ‘Left Right’. XG have since released remixes of both songs, including a rework of ‘Shooting Star’ with Rico Nasty and ‘Left Right’ with GOT7’s Jackson Wang and Ciara.
XG first debuted in March 2022 with the single ‘Tippy Toes’, and made a comeback later that year with the single ‘Mascara’. The group’s rappers then went viral on TikTok in late 2022 after the release their ‘GALZ XYPHER’ performance clip.
In an interview with NME, leader Jurin shared: “We had no idea when we were making it that so many people would react to it, so we feel very honoured.”
