‘See Us Rise – And Win’ is the bold and deeply personal new deluxe EP from French Cameroonian artist, producer, and visionary storyteller James BKS.
A creative force whose sound bridges France, Cameroon, and the United States, James BKS has carved out his own lane in global music.
Drawing from his Bikutsi heritage and his background as the son of legendary saxophonist Manu Dibango, he blends West African rhythms, chant-driven hooks, and modern hip-hop into a cinematic style that is both intimate and massive.
Having crafted hits for Snoop Dogg, Akon, and other global stars, James now stands firmly in his own spotlight crafting music charged with purpose, identity, and emotional honesty.
‘See Us Rise – And Win’ expands his 2025 EP ‘See Us Rise’, adding four new tracks that reflect vulnerability, heritage, and growth.
This deluxe edition is born from a turning point in James’s life the moment he stopped creating for approval and chose instead to create for connection.
Each track unpacks victories, doubts, friendships, temptation, and healing with unfiltered clarity.
One of the standout records is the ‘Milly Vanity – Remix’, featuring Fab Morvan, the original Milli Vanilli member.
Written after James watched the 2023 Paramount Plus documentary about the duo, the song reframes their painful legacy into one of redemption.
With Fab Morvan himself joining the remix, the track becomes a powerful story of truth, accountability, lost innocence, and the courage to rise after public downfall.
James transforms a saga once defined by scandal into a message about reclaiming identity and standing tall again.
Across the EP, James BKS invites listeners into a space of reflection, rhythm, and resilience an open table where masks fall and healing begins.
‘See Us Rise – And Win’ isn’t just a project; it’s a call to rise together, to tell the truth, and to win with authenticity.
