NMIXX Return With Pabllo Vittar for Second Collaboration After Historic São Paulo Carnival Stage

NMIXX are strengthening their global presence with a new international collaboration, teaming up once again with Brazilian pop powerhouse Pabllo Vittar for their upcoming single “TIC TIC”, set for release on February 26 at 12 PM KST. The track arrives roughly six months after their first joint project and follows a landmark performance that placed the group at the center of one of the world’s largest festivals.

A K-Pop First at Brazil’s Biggest Street Festival

The announcement comes just days after NMIXX made history as the first K-pop group to participate in the São Paulo Carnival, where they appeared as special guests at Pabllo Vittar’s massive block party.

Performing in front of an estimated two million attendees, the group delivered a high-energy set that included both the live debut of “TIC TIC” and fan-favorite tracks such as:

• “O.O”
• “DICE”
• “Love Me Like This”
• “DASH”

Their joint stage with Vittar, combined with an extended solo performance, turned the event into a three-hour showcase of their live vocals and stage power. The appearance confirmed their rapidly growing influence in Latin America and their ability to connect with audiences far beyond the traditional K-pop market.

From “MEXE” to “TIC TIC” — Expanding a Cross-Cultural Sound

NMIXX and Pabllo Vittar first collaborated in August last year with “MEXE,” a track that blended K-pop structure with Brazilian funk rhythms and Latin-style choreography. The song drew attention for its hybrid sound and global performance potential.

“TIC TIC” is expected to build on that foundation, continuing the group’s exploration of genre fusion while highlighting their strong performance identity.

A Strategic Global Move for NMIXX

This second collaboration reflects a broader trend in K-pop toward deeper regional partnerships rather than one-off global features. By returning to work with a major Latin American artist and performing directly at a local mega-event, NMIXX are positioning themselves as a group with sustained international reach.

Their São Paulo stage was not only a performance but also a symbolic moment that connected K-pop with one of the world’s most iconic cultural celebrations.

Momentum Ahead of the New Release

With the live premiere already generating buzz and the official release date approaching, “TIC TIC” is shaping up to be a key milestone in NMIXX’s global expansion.

The collaboration highlights:

• their growing popularity in Brazil and the wider Latin market
• their strength as a live performance group
• their willingness to experiment with cross-genre sounds

As the countdown to February 26 continues, NMIXX are once again proving that their international strategy is built on real stages, real audiences, and bold musical partnerships.
