Epik High to return with a new single ‘Face ID’

Hip-hop trio Epik High is set to drop its new single “Face ID” on Oct. 25, ahead of the release of its 10th full-length album in 2022, according to the group’s agency Hours Entertainment.

“Face ID” is the group’s first new song in four months after “Rain Song,” in June. The track will be a pre-release single from the upcoming album “Epik High Is Here Part 2.”

The other tracks are scheduled to be released next year.

Epik High’s last album, “Epik High Is Here Part 1,” was released in January and the title track “Rosario,” featuring artists CL and Zico, reached the Top 10 on US and South Korean music streaming platforms. 

The group members Tablo, Mithra and DJ Tukutz released the poster for the upcoming album via Instagram, hinting at live concerts in Seoul and a North America tour.

According to its music label, Epik High will hold concerts from Dec. 17 to 19 at Seoul Olympic Park in Songpa-gu, southern Seoul.

The trio’s last offline concert was in 2019 while an online concert took place in June.

Tickets for the upcoming concert will be available starting Oct. 21 through Interpark Ticket.
