Kalisway’s Sugar: A Sweet Treat with a Hint of Mischief

Kalisway’s latest track, Sugar, has all the makings of a feel-good anthem—funky basslines, groovy rhythms, and a vibe that instantly lifts your spirits. But don’t be fooled by its playful exterior.

There’s a bit more going on beneath the surface, a subtle twist that adds a touch of mischief to this sugary tune.

The moment the bass kicks in, you’re drawn into a danceable groove that feels as effortless as it is infectious.

It’s the kind of beat that gets your head nodding before you even realise it.

But then Kalisway’s vocals slide in, and there’s a glimmer of something more.

She’s singing about sugar, sure, but with a wink that suggests she knows it’s not all sweetness and light.

As she sings, “Sugar don’t taste that bad to me,” you can almost hear the grin in her voice.

It’s a playful dare, a knowing nod to the fact that sometimes the things that taste the sweetest come with a little bit of risk.

Her delivery is smooth, but there’s a syncopated rhythm to it that keeps you on your toes, hinting that there’s more to this track than meets the ear.

The instrumentation keeps the energy up—funky guitar riffs, layered synths, and drums that keep everything moving along at just the right pace.

But there’s a subtle tension woven into the mix, a hint of something lurking beneath the groove.

It’s that slight edge that makes Sugar more than just a catchy tune; it’s a song with a little bit of bite.

Kalisway delivers more than just a fun, danceable track—she adds a complexity that makes Sugar memorable, showing that sweetness with an edge often leaves the strongest impression.

Sugar isn’t just a single; it’s the lead track from Kalisway’s freshly dropped album, A Kid From Toronto.

The song perfectly encapsulates her magnetic charm and distinct sound, blending retro-futurist gogo funk with a splash of bubblegum R&B.

It’s a classic sound with a modern twist that only Kalisway can pull off so effortlessly.

And let’s be honest, if you’re the kind of person who’s still got Candy by Cameo on your playlist, Sugar will be right up your alley—it’s like a cheeky wink to the past, wrapped in a groove you won’t be able to resist.

Kalisway has crafted a tune that’s as enjoyable as it is intriguing, making it hard to resist hitting replay.

Kalisway Sugar Lyrics

Verse 1
Sugar doesn’t have any good thing to make it last
Well, that’s what mama thinks
Rotten out my teeth and make me get away from class
Well, that’s what daddy thinks
But, you
Seem to taste like candy to my dreams
Whatever that that means
If you want me oh, so bad
Fulfill my fantasy

Chorus
You taste like sugar
Pretty baby
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me
Whatever it is, you know that it’s sweet
Yeah
Yeah
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me

Verse 2
Sugar is the only thing that really makes me smile
It feels that way, uh
Sometimes I know that it might not bring me presents
It might bring me coal
Cause you
Seem to taste like candy to my dreams
Whatever that that means
If you want me oh, so bad
Fulfill my fantasy

Chorus
You taste like sugar
Pretty baby
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me
Whatever it is, you know that it’s sweet
Yeah
Yeah
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me
You taste like sugar
Pretty baby
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me
Whatever it is, you know that it’s sweet
Yeah
Yeah
Sugar don’t taste that bad to me
