Kim is of Italian and Puerto Rican descent. She is a big fan of French cheese and wine.
During the late 1990s, she was headed in a singer-songwriter direction and was recruited by Sarah McLachlan to appear in the final installment of her Lilith Fair women tour festival in 1999.
She is married to Derek Axelrod.
Career beginning
During the early 2000s, Sozzi released an album and several singles as a pop-rock performer. Eventually, some of these singles were remixed by New York City dance producers, and the songs crossed over into the New York dance and club scene, where they became hits. She also found success in the European club scene with these dance mixes. Because Sozzi was difficult to pronounce in some foreign dialects, Kim went by the name of STYLES for the European market.
MYNT
In 2004, while still trying to make a name for herself in America as a mainstream pop singer, the New York based dance duo, MYNT, sought Sozzi to sing vocals on a track that they were producing and planning to release as their debut single, a camped up cover of Mantronik's house classic "How Did You Know". Sozzi agreed to sing vocals on the track, which was credited to "Mynt featuring Kim Sozzi", and eventually decided to join Mynt as a permanent member when the song found heavy success in American clubs and even on popular New York City radio stations such as KTU and Z100. The song eventually peaked at #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. It stayed at #1 on the airplay chart at KTU for over 14 weeks. The song was the second most played song on KTU in 2004. She released another single with Mynt titled "Back In Love". She has since left the group and has signed to Ultra records as Kim Sozzi.
Solo
Kim released her second single, "Stay", in early 2005. It caught on across the country rather than mainly only in the New York area, a first for a Sozzi single.
Her single "Alone" received heavy rotation on Sirius Satellite Radio's dance station (The Beat) after being released in March 2006. The song is a cover version of the Heart classic. Kim's brand of Dance-pop is sleek and firecely catchy. It strongly ignores any rap influence. Kim's new single "Break Up", the (Cascada Mix) won the battle of The Fresh Beats on KTU on September 1, where it received 75% of the vote.
Kim's vocals and sound have been compared to that of 90s Canadian dance icon Emjay.
Next up for Kim is a smash duet with the "bad boy of dance", Lucas Prata. It is a remake of the Human League's "Don't You Want Me". The duo premiered the track at Mirage on Long Island on New Years Eve and it is expected to be included on the upcoming Kim Sozzi Ultra Records release.

Kim Sozzi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The way I love my man
And only you knows what to do
When I need a hand
You're the only one who stays the night
You're my cradle and my spoon
You're the man, the man in the moon
When I'm with you
Stars shine through
Fill me with romance
Each night is new
You know it too
When we begin to dance
You're the only chance I know is right
You're my cradle and my spoon
You're the man, the man in the moon
Come through my window
I never say no
And if you want to
Oh my man, my man in the moon
My man in the moon
You're the only chance I know is right
You're my cradle and my spoon
You're the man, the man in the
You're the man, the man in the
You're the man, the man in the moon
You're the man, my man in the moon
The lyrics to Kim Sozzi's song "Man in the Moon" touch on the theme of a deep and intensely personal connection between two people, as described through the lens of a metaphorical representation of the moon as a romantic partner. The singer speaks directly to the moon as though it were a person, conveying a sense of comfort and security in its presence. She acknowledges that only the moon can truly understand the depth of her feelings for her man, and that only it knows how to provide the support and tenderness she needs. The moon is described as both a cradle and a spoon, evoking images of warmth and protection, while the act of dancing with the moon fills the singer with romance and joy.
Throughout the song, the singer repeats the refrain that the man in the moon is the only chance she knows is right, emphasizing the importance and singularity of this connection. The final lines of the song suggest that the moon is not just a symbol of the singer's romantic partner, but has taken on a life of its own. "Come through my window, I never say no," she sings, indicating that the moon has agency and can choose to join her whenever it wants. This last line hints at a world where magical and fantastical things are possible, where even the moon can be a companion and lover.
