In the volatile world of pop music, reinvention is often a high-stakes gamble. But for the Los Angeles-based girl group Girlset, a massive shift in identity has become the catalyst for their most authentic chapter yet. Formerly known as VCHA, the group is entering a new era defined by a fresh name, a smaller lineup, and a hunt for a unique sonic identity.
In a recent Girlset “Little Miss” interview, members Camila, Lexi, Kendall, and Savanna opened up about their journey from reality TV hopefuls to a cohesive musical unit determined to do things their way.
From VCHA to Girlset: A Necessary Evolution
The road to becoming Girlset was paved with significant changes. The group originally formed via A2K (“America to Korea”), a reality competition led by JYP Entertainment and Republic Records, and was signed to JYP America. However, after over a year as VCHA, the act was relaunched in 2025 as Girlset following an internal shake-up.
This transition saw the departure of two original members. KG left in December 2024 following a lawsuit claiming “abuse and mistreatment,” which was eventually settled with a mutually agreed upon parting of ways. Kaylee followed suit, departing in June. Now down to four members from the original six, the group is focused on their future.
The Success of “Little Miss” and the Y2K Vibe
The group’s latest single, “Little Miss,” along with the track “Commas,” leans heavily into 2000s pop and R&B. The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, validating the group’s instincts.
“Really happy that everyone likes it as much as we do,” Savanna said regarding the fan response. Camila added that the group had held onto the song for a long time, eager to release it because they knew it fit their style perfectly.
According to Kendall, the song represents a specific moment in their artistic development. “I feel like over the time that we’ve spent away, we were able to work on so many different types of songs that it’s able to identify now where we are… That’s why we really felt that ‘Little Miss’ was a good song that represented us leaning more into the 2000s R&B,” she explained.
A Quest for Sonic Identity
While “Little Miss” defines their current moment, Girlset is eager to explore beyond the Y2K nostalgia. They are actively searching for a sound that is uniquely their own.
“There are definitely some core things about our music that will define us as a group musically while moving through different genres,” Kendall told The Hollywood Reporter.
Savanna teased that the group has been writing extensively over the past year and a half. “In the future, you can definitely expect similar sounds, but different [ones] as well. We definitely want to explore other genres,” she noted. Camila echoed this sentiment, stating that their new recordings have already evolved past “Little Miss”.
Chemistry and Authenticity in the New Era
Navigating the industry as a quartet has strengthened the bond between the members. Lexi described the creative process as effortless, noting that they have adapted to one another so well that they often share the same vision instantly. “To be more involved in the process, and have input, and create more ideas for what we thought of for ourselves is honestly a lot of fun,” Lexi shared.
For Camila, the priority is ensuring the group shines as a whole while allowing individual personalities to come through. But above all, the brand of Girlset is built on authenticity.
“We want our fans to feel connected with who we really are,” Camila said. “We want to build a really safe space… and become the best version of ourselves”.
As they continue to write and record, the Girlset “Little Miss” interview highlights a group that is not just surviving a rebrand, but thriving within it.
