Pa Salieu and Byron Messia shake s**t up in “Soda.”

Pa Salieu, the Gambian hip-hop artist by way of the UK, has crafted a unique space in the music world. Known for his commanding mic presence, he consistently delivers animated and engaging verses that captivate listeners. He also confidently tackles a wide range of beats, never backing down from a challenge. Recently, Pa returned to the music scene with a new album titled Afrikan Alien. One of the standout tracks from it is “Soda.”

On “Soda,” Pa Salieu teams up with Byron Messia to deliver a track full of swagger and grit. Throughout it, they reflect on their remarkable rise from the trenches to paradise. As an African listener, I couldn’t help but smile at the pride and strength in their words.

What makes “Soda” particularly intriguing is its heavy dance vibe. The track features a rhythmic, percussive instrumental with a tropical flair and an infectious groove. Byron Messia adds a gentle yet intoxicating touch with his smooth vocal performance, while Pa Salieu balances it with powerful raps that underscore his confident narrative. Together, they deliver performances that leap off the track and command attention.
