CANDI STATON

Candi as a diminutive of… Canzetta… In any case, our Canzetta started with gospel with great success, spent years and years trying to achieve mainstream success, which she would only reach with disco, with “Young hearts run free”.

Another notable success from 1977 was “Victim”. Having no other hits, she left disco to return to soul, with better success, but the breakthrough with two million records sold came in 1992 with “You got the love”—well done, our Canzetta!
