Composition
composer and lyricist of "I'm So Hot" ('pictured' in 2013).
"I'm so Hot is an electropop song. The song was written, composed and produced by Shinsadong Tiger, while Beom x Nang received writing and composition credits. Described by Tamar Herman of 'Billboard' as a song that "jumps between melodies, throwing in jazzy brass and quirky synths over squelchy Eurodance-inspired beats."
Background and release
Momoland released their fourth extended play 'Fun to the World' with its lead single "Baam" in June 2018. Following the release of "Baam", it was announced on February 12, 2019 by MLD Entertainment that the group would be returning in March 2019 with a new album. On March 14, 2019, it was announced that members Daisy and Taeha will be taking a break due to health and personal issues and not participate for the promotions of "I'm So Hot".
"I'm So Hot" served as the first single from Momoland without members Daisy and Taeha since their 2016 debut single "Jjan! Koong! Kwang!".

Critical reception
Tssia Assis of MTV News stated the track's "brassy, over the top melody pairs well with the flashy confidence and it's the perfect score to play while taking over the stage." Amber Miley of 'The Kraze Magazine' described the song as "full brass and percussion", and that it was "reminiscent of old school burlesque show music."
