Listening to Kaya Hoax, you'll find yourself nodding along with a mix of mischief and passive outrage. Her music, urgent and festive, sits between hip hop and experimental pop, drawing from UK grime, dancehall, and punk. With magnetic percussion, raw synthesizers, and booming 808s, she delivers verses that swing between fierce independence and total vulnerability. After standout performances in Quebec, including a memorable show at POP Montreal, she released her debut EP Baby Gear in May 2024, featuring hyperactive hooks, captivating bass lines, and earworm melodies.
