Ukrainian producer Yuri Nikitin has officially confirmed work on the return of two cult musical projects — "NikitA" and "NeAngely". This became known from the program "Slava+", materials of which were published by RBC-Ukraine. The producer did not hide that the process has already been launched, however, the details of the future composition of the collectives remain under a veil of mystery.
"NikitA": almost ready project and intrigue with Dasha Astafieva
According to Nikitin, the "NikitA" project is at the stage of final assembly. The producer stated that the group is "almost formed" and will soon appear before the public in an updated format. Fans are waiting for a surprise, but Nikitin himself refuses to reveal the names of the new members for now.
Particular interest among fans is aroused by the question of the return of former soloist Daria Astafieva. In response to a direct request regarding her possible participation in the revived lineup, the producer did not give a clear answer, leaving the intrigue intentionally unsolved. "You will be pleasantly surprised," he promised, without going into details.
"NeAngely": casting instead of returning legends
The situation with the other legendary duo, "NeAngely", is developing according to a different scenario. Yuri Nikitin admitted that in the near future the team plans to hold a large-scale casting to find new members. The reason lies in the position of former soloists Slava Kaminska and Victoria Semyukha, who at the moment do not express a desire to resume joint work.
Despite the fact that the voices of Kaminska and Semyukha are considered unique, the producer is convinced that the future of the group should not depend exclusively on former stars. "The group 'NeAngely' is returning, but we are opening a casting," explained Nikitin, emphasizing the desire to return the brand to Ukrainian show business and give it a new life.
The era of hits: from provocations to romantic ballads
The return of these projects is an attempt to revive the two most successful musical phenomena of the Ukrainian pop scene of the 2000s and 2010s. "NikitA" won the audience with bold stage images and provocative clips, which instantly soared in the charts. Their international recognition and the popularity of their videos made them a symbol of the era.
"NeAngely", in turn, conquered listeners with powerful vocal data and romantic compositions. Songs like "Yura, Forgive Me" and "Roman" gathered millions of views and sounded on leading radio stations for years. The collective actively toured the world, gathering full houses, and now their legacy is ready to receive a continuation in a new lineup.
