KATSEYE are back with their brand new EP, WILD, released via HYBE x Geffen Records.
Following the “beautiful chaos” of their previous chapter, the group shifts its focus toward something “more euphoric and untamed.” As a result, the project showcases a more open and uninhibited side of the group.
The five-track EP marks a new era for the global girl group, shaped by their two-year journey of growth, transformation, and evolution. It features the previously released singles “PINKY UP” and “Animal.”
Additionally, the release also arrives with the Target-exclusive bonus track “Unloveu,” which was co-written and co-produced by member Lara Raj, alongside Amy Allen and Ross Golan.
The EP’s release is accompanied by the project’s focus track “Hootie Frutti,” along with a music video heavily inspired by Britney Spears’ early-2000s hit “I’m a Slave 4 U.”
The project arrives alongside the theatrical release of the group’s concert documentary, KATSEYE: WILD HEARTS. The film serves as a “love letter to the EYEKONS who helped build this movement,” featuring never-before-seen footage and interviews with the members.
The release comes after Sophia Laforteza stepped away from group activities and began a temporary hiatus to focus on her mental health and well-being. She is the second member to take a hiatus, following Manon Bannerman, who stepped away from group activities in February.
