DESEO

DESEO

The social media star delivers as a femme-forward reggaetonera. Marked by tens of millions of online followers, Katteyes’ social media stardom undoubtedly set the stage for her subsequent rise in the music world. Yet with the release of her debut album DESEO, the Chilean artist accomplishes more than just another successful new product rollout, revealing instead a powerfully cohesive and oh-so-poppy expression of her evident creativity. The singles leading up to this moment, including such candy-coated perreo fare as “PONTE PONTE” and the SINAKA-aided “ALO,” hinted strongly at the immensely satisfying and eminently danceable project she would soon share with her fans. Whether employing an atmospheric touch on “TRIAL” or going noticeably harder for “AJÁ,” her brand of femme-forward reggaetón carries on a tradition for her home country and the genre at large. Produced by Big One, clubby hybrid “LONELY” links her with established Argentine star Maria Becerra, while fellow Chilean Kidd Voodoo proves a fitting duet partner for “PONTE LOKITA.”
