We welcome the opportunity to work with such wonderful musicians. “The marketing potential is outstanding because Stil K-Dans is a group of extraordinary young professionals whose only goals are to satisfy their deserving fans and quench the thirst of Konpa Lovers everywhere”. Said Cheyna Pierre, founder of B.E.
The new album will be reminiscent of the band’s unique sound that helped shape “La Nouvelle Generation” of Konpa Music in the late 90s, when the band was simply known as K-Dans. Due out this summer, “Bèl Ekip” will compromise 12 songs, including the previously released single “Foli” and the live version of “Tèt Kole Je Fèmen”. This Bèl Ekip has just started warming up.
The recently released single “Foli” caught a lot of attention and it definitively has many people asking the question: “Ak kiyès Stil K-Dans ap pale?” It is a sign of great things to come as the Band aims to not only meet, but exceed all expectations.
To that end, Stil K-Dans has been working diligently and the band is currently putting the finishing touches on Bèl Ekip, its long awaited Studio Album.
In a recent conversation with charismatic and soulful Lead singer Jude Jean, an unmatched yet humble talent told us with pride and confidence: “We have made some great improvements in our team and we guarantee our fans’ satisfaction”. As Stil-Kdans continues on its path of providing its fans and all music lovers with Bon Konpa, we simply request that you show up at the next events. Stil-KDans will take care of the rest.
