Los Angeles-based Latina girl group Sweet Taboo recently released their single “Lil Bit” as well as the accompanying visual and we can’t get enough of it!
Consisting of singers Jen Torrejon, Sami Ramos and rapper IC Bre, the trio, who made their debut in 2019, are leaving their mark on the industry and making it known that they are here to stay.
Having amassed millions of views on TikTok and having their content shared by the likes of DJ Khaled, Kehlani, and more, “Lil Bit” highlights Sweet Taboo’s growth as a group and introduces their revamped signature sound.
“We wrote this song in the middle of quarantine and wanted to create something that brings a lil bit of confidence, a lil bit of body positivity, and a lil bit of Latin spice. It’s been so amazing seeing our fans show love for the single and dancing to it on TikTok,” the band tells Celeb Secrets exclusively.
“We have so many favorite, fun moments from the music video shoot – but our ACTUAL favorite moment happened after the shoot. Our director, V, showed our video to Bruno Mars and he said it was dope!”
