Toronto-based singer-songwriter Rosina B. Solomon returns with “Girl Code,” a chill, reggae and R&B-tinged track featuring Jamaican artist Spliffon. Blending smooth grooves, subtle reggaeton influences, and Solomon’s signature soulful vocals, “Girl Code” is an effortlessly cool reflection on friendship, love, and the choices that come with growing up.
“I was in uni seeing a lot of toxic situations and things I knew I didn’t want to go through, but I wanted the end result of having fun and having someone,” says Solomon. “The song is about how people put romantic love before their friends and priorities—and how I promised myself I wouldn’t be like that, but when I finally got into their position, I kind of understood. Romantic love is a strong feeling, and you can’t really substitute it with anything else.”
Written during the pandemic, “Girl Code” evolved from a jam session that fused reggae and reggaeton vibes – “melding a few different cultures together,” Solomon explains. The result is a laid-back yet emotionally rich groove that captures her genre-blending artistry and global sensibility.
An emerging voice in Toronto’s R&B and neo-soul scene, Rosina B. Solomon has earned recognition from CBC Radio’s Marvin’s Room and In the Key of C for her debut project Intro, which showcased her warm tones and Ethiopian-influenced sound. With “Girl Code,” Solomon continues to expand her sonic palette while giving fans a taste of what’s to come on her forthcoming second EP.
"Girl Code" (feat. Spliffon) is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit her website here.
