Information
EE JUMP was a J-Pop duo made up of Sonim and Goto Yuuki (Goto Maki's younger brother). Like the units of Hello! Project, EE JUMP was produced by Tsunku. The unit's first two singles, "LOVE IS ENERGY!" and "HELLO! Atarashii Watashi", were moderately successful, charting at #18 and #17, respectively, but their third single "Ottototto Natsu da ze!" was a smash hit outselling their first two singles combined.
The quirky, eclectic style of "Ottototto Natsu da ze!" was carried through to their fourth single "Ikina Rhythm!", but during a release event event for the single in August 2001 Goto fought with the group's manager and checked out of his hotel without permission. He was put on hiatus and remained under house arrest until January 2002. During this time Sonim released a single as EE JUMP featuring Sonim. After apologizing for his misbehavior Goto rejoined the unit and they released another single. They recorded an album scheduled for release in May 2002, but when photos of the then-15-year-old Goto in a cabaret were published in the tabloid magazine FRIDAY, the album was canceled and the unit disbanded. The unreleased album tracks were leaked online and three of them were eventually rerecorded as coupling tracks on Sonim's first, second, and fourth solo singles, with Tsunku replacing Goto's vocals.
