"'Eiskalt'" (; ) is a song recorded by Swiss-Albanian rapper Loredana featuring Kosovo-Albanian rapper Mozzik released as the third single from her debut studio album, 'King Lori' (2019). The song was written by the aforementioned rappers, and composed and produced by German producers Macloud and Miksu.
Commercially, "Eiskalt" experienced success reaching the top ten in Austria, Germany and Switzerland, and the top forty in Albania. Due to high sales, the song was certified gold in Austria and Germany by the Verband der sterreichischen Musikwirtschaft and Bundesverband Musikindustrie, respectively.
"Eiskalt" was musically described as a split between hip-hop, trap and pop incorporating Balkan elements.
An official music video was uploaded on 1 August 2019 onto YouTube to accompany the single's release. The colorful video features Loredana and Mozzik performing to the song in a multitude of different colored scenes.
Background
Composition and reception
"Eiskalt" marks the third time that the couple has collaborated musically on a recording, following their collaborations on "Bonnie & Clyde" and "Romeo & Juliet". The song was solely written by Loredana and Mozzik and mastered by German producer Lex Barkey. 'Note: Open description for credits.' It was both composed and produced by German producers Macloud and Miksu. With a duration time of two minutes and fifty nine seconds, it is performed in the key of G major in common time with a moderate tempo of 90 beats per minute.
The Swiss magazine 'Lyrics' characterised "Eiskalt" as a typical "Loredana song" and expressed praise towards the "catchy hook, solid verses and the memorable beats". Two authors of the Swiss daily newspapers 'Blick' and 'Basler Zeitung' respectively gave the song itself generally negative reviews, criticising the provocative lyrics of "Eiskalt".
