EKIP has made it official: the group is welcoming two new vocalists, Emmynix and D-Singer, and they’re gearing up to drop a brand new album.
The announcement came through a slick promotional video called “The Intro,” which dropped on their official channels. Instead of a simple reveal, the group went for a full cinematic treatment that feels more like a short film than your average teaser.
In the video, a woman shows up to talk to Shabba, the group’s leader, basically begging him to get back in the game. Shabba isn’t quick to say yes. He’s still carrying the weight from losing two key members, Steev Khé and D-Perfect, who are portrayed in the clip as fallen soldiers. You can feel the hesitation. He’s done with the drama and ready to stay on the sidelines.
Then the tone shifts. She shows him the new guys Emmynix and D-Singer and something clicks. Seeing fresh talent ready to step up changes his mind. By the end, Shabba is back on board, fired up to rebuild the team and move forward.
It’s a smart way to frame the changes. EKIP leaned hard into military imagery to show the internal shake-up: losing soldiers, recruiting new ones, and getting the unit back to full strength. The whole thing positions this moment as a real reset for the band, not just a lineup tweak.
Beyond the new faces, the biggest takeaway is the confirmation of a new album on the way. After all the ups and downs, EKIP clearly wants to return to the konpa scene with renewed energy and a fresh sound. Fans have been waiting for this kind of momentum, and the group seems determined to deliver.
