Sometimes when you hear a song for the first time, you just know. That was the case with Toronto based, Bahama-raised artist Justina JL’s debut single “Truesay.” There is something special about Justina JL that feels like the beginning of something important. Justina JL is an upcoming R&B singer from the Bahamas, who now resides in Toronto, Canada. The song is complemented by a feature from Yung Tory, a rising rap star who comes on the track with swagger.
Produced by Ante O’Connor and Sspiketrap, engineered at Abstract Studios by Derek (Megaman) Kavanagh and Ante O’Connor. “Truesay” captures the essence Justina JL is going for with this mid-tempo, R&B song with island vibes. “Truesay” is the first single from Justina JL’s upcoming EP that speaks about having fun in the club, and turning up but most importantly, being a boss chick that knows what she’s after. “Truesay” depicts a short story of meeting in the club, and Justina JL describes herself as being the bod gyal you see with her friends, enjoying the night.
You can’t just step to her in any way and when you do, make sure to come correct. “Bod gyal nuh play number two” so if you’re looking for her, you’ve found the one. “Truesay” is most heard in Toronto slang however, is a term that originates from the Caribbean, meaning that you’re speaking truth or in agreeance with what’s being said. “Truesay, I don’t business what you say”. The pair complement each other on the track and have had undeniable chemistry since meeting. You can prepare to hear more collaborations with Justina JL and Yung Tory in the near future.
