Simon D and E-Sens of Supreme Team have finally made their way back to their fans after two years with the long-awaited release of duo’s latest EP album, “Thanks 4 the Wait.”
This is the first release that the two have put out as a team since they suspended their group’s activities after member E-Sens was charged with marijuana use in 2011.
Released Tuesday, “Thanks 4 the Wait” features two singles: title track “Geudaero Isseododwae” and “Eat It.” The album’s title track is a mid-tempo smooth rap/R&B-style song that was composed by rapper Crush, who is also featured in the song. “Eat It,” on the other hand, is upbeat, bass-heavy hardcore hip-hop composed by Korean hip-hop legend Tiger JK.
The members of Supreme Team unveiled their newest singles over the weekend during the Amoebahood Concert, which featured performances by artists of the Amoebaculture agency including Dynamic Duo, Primary, Rhythm Power and Zion.T. At the concert, Simon D and E-Sens expressed their about their return as a duo and thanked the fans for their patience.
Supreme Team debuted in 2009 with the album “Supreme Team Guide to Excellent Adventure” and the duo’s hit title track, “Supermagic.” That same year, the duo received the Rookie of the Year award at the Mnet Asian Music Awards, launching their career as a popular hip-hop team following in the footsteps of fellow label mates and rap duo sensations Gaeko and Choiza of Dynamic Duo.
