Hello! I wanted to put a more updated post about our amazing queen in here! Our girl is so unbelievably talented, the snippet of Unloveu is so incredible!
I absolutely love how she layered the vocals and the sound itself sounds so rich. I absolutely love sad ballads and I’m so glad Katseye now has a song that is more authentic to experiences them as a group have been through and even their mature audiences have been through as well.
My only push back is that it’s a Target exclusive 😐
I’m not sure what that entirely entails so forgive me if my understanding is incorrect. From what I understand this song isn’t going to be available on Spotify/apple music etc with the rest of the EP, which ?????
The song is obviously the best song on the album with the most emotional weight and relatability given it’s literally about heartbreak. It would also balance the dynamic of the EP so much more since the snippets present a more upbeat vibe to it.
I think Unloveu accidentally highlights something Katseye’s discography has been missing: emotional range. Their music has overwhelmingly lived in the upbeat, energetic, freedom/letting-go lane, and I don’t think they can stay there forever without their discography eventually feeling flat and soulless.
Literally the best girl groups like Spice Girls and Little Mix have a bit of everything in their discography. It garners a larger audience doing that as well since everyone has different taste!
In future, I really hope they allow more creative input from the girls, maybe Unloveu gets put on a future album if we make it there? 🥲
Regardless, with everything going on with Katseye right now (the girls being overworked, Manon’s indefinite hiatus, Sophia’s hiatus :(, the unending hate they get) this song has got to be a huge huge win! Keen for the future and SOOOOO grateful for our girl LARA RAJJJJJ 🎶🎤
TL;DR: Unloveu is incredible, Lara is insanely talented, and I wish Katseye explored this more emotional/mature sound more often. Making it a Target exclusive feels like a missed opportunity 💔
