Kazakhstan in The Song 6

Kazakhstan participated in The Song 6 in Rotterdam, Netherlands with the song "On Your Mind", performed by Bota Butterfly, written by Akbota Kassymova and Nicholas Schneider. Kazakhstan hadn't competed since their poor performance in The Song 3. As a result, Kazakhstan will compete in the Pre-Qualification Round for the sixth edition of the contest.

Participation
On March 13 2023, the Kazakh broadcaster announced that they would be holding a national final to select their entry. Bota Butterfly was announced as the representative, with the national final consisting of three of her songs. Voting began later that day.

National Selection
Of the three presented entries by Bota Butterfly, the winning song was "On Your Mind". "Drop" will compete in The Song Second Chance 6. The third entry, "Somebody Else" was disqualified due to being deemed ineligible to compete. The song was originally posted without prior approval from the EBU.
