He explains ‘I want to make music that makes you feel good and reminds you of what makes you feel good, so icy girl is a bit of an ode to that person that keeps you grounded, level headed and cool.’

That’s what this song and the aura that surrounds shy niko is all about, not taking things too seriously and seeing what happens along the way. shy niko channels this energy through a fresh, dreamy alt-pop track with a melodic flow that catches the instantaneously, with elements of R&B prevalent as well. ‘icy girl’ is an instant, multi-genre hit that isn’t just confined to one space, and is more than certain to get you moving and vibing.

Speaking more on the creation of ‘icy girl’, shy niko says:

“​​It all started with the chord progression and I knew from the very first moment I wanted to come in strong and speak directly to the listener with "ice girl, princess" almost like a "HEY YOU, I'm speaking to YOU". From there, I just wrote the rest with the chord progression looping on repeat and then ultimately built out the rest of the production. I love producing all sorts of genres, but with a song like this, it's just there to prop up the songwriting so I kept it very much in the lane of what it is, DIY pop music.”
