Flo Rida unveils new K-pop collab featuring ENHYPEN’s Heeseung, Jake, and Paul Russell
Flo Rida has sparked a social media frenzy with the announcement of his upcoming single, 'Confessions,' featuring K-Pop stars ENHYPEN’s Heeseung and Jake, alongside rapper Paul Russell.
The two-time Grammy winner revealed the collaboration on Instagram on Tuesday, marking his first major release since his 2012 album 'Wild Ones.'
While the announcement excited long-time fans, younger audiences unfamiliar with Flo Rida expressed confusion, claiming they hadn’t heard any of his hits. Fans of the rapper were quick to defend his legacy, reminding skeptics of his numerous chart-topping tracks and global success. With over 80 million records sold and multiple RIAA-certified platinum hits, Flo Rida remains one of music’s best-selling artists.
The K-Pop stars featured in 'Confessions' are Heeseung and Jake, members of ENHYPEN, a leading fourth-generation K-Pop group. Before debuting with ENHYPEN in 2020, the two gained attention through the survival show I-LAND. Since their debut, ENHYPEN has achieved global stardom, with their albums, including 'ROMANCE: UNTOLD,' breaking records and topping charts worldwide. The group’s success earned them three prestigious trophies at the 39th Golden Disc Awards in 2024.
Set to release this Friday, January 10, 'Confessions' is already generating significant buzz, blending Flo Rida’s legacy with ENHYPEN’s rising influence in global music. Fans of both artists eagerly await the track, anticipating a unique collaboration that bridges pop and hip-hop genres.
