In this episode, Chris and Chantel Nicole go track by track through "Beautiful Chaos", the second EP from global girl group KATSEYE. With members handpicked through Dream Academy and trained under K-pop standards, expectations are high. The talent? Undeniable. The music? Well…We break down the production, vocals, lyrics, and group identity, and ask: is this project doing justice to the girls’ potential? Or does it feel like a missed opportunity for something truly fresh?
