Send Mary and Kelsey a Message!
In this episode, Mary and Kelsey celebrate the anniversary of Backstreet Boys’ 2007 album Unbreakable. This track-by-track listening party celebrates one of the Boys’ most underrated eras: post–boy band frenzy, pre–Sphere/Millennium 2.0 TikTok dominance. From the soaring harmonies of “Inconsolable” to the criminally underrated pop banger “Something That I Already Know,” this episode revisits every beat, bridge, and beautiful BSB harmony that made Unbreakable such a confident comeback in their first album sans Kevin Richardson.
