Superstars AESPA and Flo Milli Join Forces on New Single 'Dirty Work'
(New York, NY) -
Global K-Pop hitmaker AESPA shows no signs of slowing down with their latest release, "Dirty
Work" (SM Entertainment / Virgin Records). Adding another dimension to the track, the group has collaborated
with rapper Flo Milli, who brings her distinctive style to a powerful remix.
Riding high off a successful year, aespa is back with "Dirty Work,"
a vibrant and captivating Synth-Pop dance track showcasing their vocal colors and cool ambitious spirit. Surpassing over 1.01
million pre-orders, "Dirty Work" offers a fresh contrast to the group's usual powerful charm, this four-song release
includes the original Korean version, an English version, an instrumental, and a hard-hitting remix featuring Flo Milli, who
blends her signature sound with the group's energetic vibe.
Flo
Milli first gained attention on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok with her 2018 single "Beef FloMix."
She later broke into the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart with "Never Lose Me" and was recognized as one of
"The 10 Hottest Female Rappers." With nearly 1 billion streams to date, she displays her signature powerful rap
style on "Dirty Work (Feat. Flo Milli)," creating a special synergy with aespa.
The music video for "Dirty Work," which was also released today, was filmed
at Hyundai Steel's Dangjin steel plant, featuring expansive storage yards and massive heavy machinery. With 225 extras, the
video delivers a gritty, industrial vibe. In it, aespa's members portray fearless resistors who tackle any "dirty work"
for their team, showcasing powerful choreography and their most striking visuals to date.
In 2024, AESPA solidified their position at the top with their first full-length album
"Armageddon," which delivered a powerful, self-empowering message: "Only I can define myself." They also
achieved their third consecutive mega hit with "Whiplash," an EDM track in the techno genre they tackled for the
first time since debut. Sweeping major awards at numerous domestic and international music ceremonies, the group reached a
new career high.

AESPA's single "Dirty Work" will also be released today as a physical album featuring the title track and
instrumental. On July 4th, a limited edition version titled "Dirty Work (Dirty Crew Ring Ver.)" will be released,
symbolizing the bond between AESPA and MY, their official fan club.
