Starship Entertainment introduced KiiiKiii with the surprise release of “I Do Me” music video on February 16. The song will be officially released on all music platforms on February 24. It will serve as a pre-debut and pre-release single from their upcoming EP “Uncut Gem”. The music video reached the top of YouTube’s trending videos in Korea within just 12 hours of its release.
KiiiKiii is gearing up to release their debut EP, “Uncut Gem”, on March 24, 2025. Fans will have four unique physical album versions to choose from: Groundwork, Digging, Uncut, and Gem.
“Uncut Gem” contains 4 tracks including “I Do Me”, “Groundwork”, “There They Go”, “One Off”, and “BTG”.
On another note, Starship Entertainment is home to many popular idol groups, non-idol artists, and soloists. They manage groups like IVE, MONSTA X, WJSN, CRAVITY, K.Will, and more. Since IVE achieved unprecedented success, K-pop fans have similar expectations from KiiiKiii. It is expected that they will replicate the success of IVE and receive recognition at the global stage.
Meanwhile, mark your calendars for March 24 when KiiiKiii will drop their debut mini-album “Uncut Gem”.
