Kandi Girlz Q & A

kandi Girlz 4.jpgThe Kandi Girlz are a St. Louis trio consisting of Diamond Thompson, 15, Sade Thompson, 14, and Brittany Thompson, 18. Diamond is a sophomore at Parkwary North High School, where Sade is a freshman, Brittany graduated in 2010 and is now a freshman at Forrest Park College. At 10, Diamond joined a group named BeBe’s Kids, but left the group due to personal reasons. Nonetheless, the talent, and outgoing, energetic personalities these girls acquire led their mother to take their career seriously and Kandi Girlz officially became a group in 2008.  They released their first song in 2009 and it received a lot of attention via YouTube. Their song was in such heavy demand that it caught the attention of DJ Sno who validated the talent these young ladies have by producing their second single Make Em Clap that was released earlier this year. Since then,  the Kandi Girlz single Make Em Clap has been receiving heavy radio play and they have been performing shows all over St. Louis.
