Who Is iCandy, and Why Is Her Single Viral On TikTok?
Written by SOURCE on May 9, 2023
Dance challenges are still one of the most entertaining trends on TikTok. A current frontrunner is the “Keep Dat N***a” challenge.
Unlike some of the other challenges on the app, the dance, which was born of iCandy’s single of the same name, will take a lot more patience and a few rehearsals. But judging by the hundreds of thousands of videos already uploaded to TikTok, it’s a lot of fun and worth the effort.
Although the challenge became popular in 2023, the song was actually released on Nov. 24, 2022. And if the beat sounds a little familiar, it’s because iCandy samples KC & the Sunshine Band’s 1975 single “Boogie Shoes.”
As the dance challenge continues to grow in popularity, take a second to get up to speed on what the dance entails and who the artist is behind the viral song below.
