It has been a moment since we last checked in on Justina Valentine, but we were floored when Strawberry Soda crossed our desk. The thick, bass synths immediately draw in fans, while Valentine’s vocals refresh the time-tried approach of performers like Trina and Lil Kim. The unity of Justina’s bars and the hypnotic backing beat separates this cut from the rest of songs charting on the Billboard rap parts. The presence of a bit of mid-1990s Compton at points during Valentine’s latest is the cherry on top of this sundae. Watch the video for Strawberry Soda below and let us know what you think.

We have covered Justina Valentine a few times in the past, taking a look at her JUST,  Deep End and The Real Justina.
