Most Badass Asian ‘Want’ to take over ‘2018’ with third mini album

EK, BOLA, and NEAL, the Korean hiphop scene’s hottest trio, return with the mini album ‘2018’ and the music video of its track ‘Want’.

MBA Crew released their first single in 2015. Last year, they dropped their first mini album ‘Most Badass Asian‘ under STONESHIP. Shortly after, the single ‘Racism‘ and another mini album, ‘YF‘, followed.

EK, BOLA, and NEAL make a strong comeback in ‘2018‘ with their new EP. MBA is becoming the new voice of Korean hiphop and 2017 was the year they started making their mark.
