The Vistoso Bosses Are Completely Boss

You can pretty much gather that if an artist’s press materials cite “’80s freestyle, Miami bass, R&B and British indie pop” in as their influences, I’m going to give whatever they have to offer a listen, since, well, those are pretty much my influences, too (although maybe swap in Greg Dulli for Miami bass—they’re kind of the same, right?). Such is the case with the Vistoso Bosses, an Atlanta teen duo (Taylor Parker is 17; Kelci Ferguson, 16) that’s being shepherded by the same guy who brought Soulja Boy into the Internet’s consciousness. (Maybe this is penance?) The Bosses’ debut single is the absolutely irresistible “Delirious,” which reminds me of a schoolgirl-crush rewrite of Kandi’s featherweight kiss-off “Don’t Think I’m Not,” complete with nervously plucked guitar and all. Embed after the jump.

It’s as if someone out there was just in the mood to design a song for me, you know?
