DEAN and FKJ may have just produced the most ethereal record of the year.
Today (November 27), the K-R&B icon took to Instagram to tease a possible collaboration with platinum-selling electro-funk artist and producer FKJ. In this cryptic post, the artists pose alongside a piano in dim candlelight, hinting at a potential musical tie-up with a caption reads, “November 29 at 1 p.m. with [FKJ].”
This would mark DEAN’s latest collaboration, after recently teaming up with fellow Korean act BIBI for her single “Burn.” In 2023, the Korean R&B star made his highly anticipated return to music with “DIE 4 YOU.” The feature explores a darker sound to the singer-songwriter, as the moody downbeat tone highlights his electro-R&B production in a different angle.
On FKJ’s side, this potential partnership would also be his first musical drop since the release of his album V I N C E N T in 2022. As both artists explore a similar kind of genre-defying production, the potential of their joint work could lead to one of the most exciting experimental releases to come out this year.
In anticipation of DEAN and FKJ’s possible collaboration, listen to “DIE 4 YOU” here:
