I was ready to disregard the sounds of Toronto’s young hip-hop duo Candy Coated Killahz, with song titles like “Booty Bounce” and “It Factor,” but their blended electro-pop dance beats, fresh attitude, and hip-hop bounce made me change my mind. Female producer/MC Tosha Dash, and her rhyming partner-in-crime Icon the Anomali, make up the duo’s flavorful sound and dance club energy. Both youngsters seem to ooze an uncanny combination of stylized innocence, and maturity beyond their years. I recommend listening to their “Rich Kids” song, chock full of catchy lyrics, and layered textures that make you want to bust a move.

The two released a 6-song sampler called Bloodsugar: The Mixtape this past August, and will release their debut full-length, It Factor this coming March. My booty is a bouncin’, and I predict many more will join in the beat come this Spring. Check out these youthful urban mavens, and all their neon on their MySpace page.
