Claudia Valentina drops “Candy,” a fierce, brooding anthem inspired by Kelis’ “Milkshake.” Watch the bold video now.
Pop disruptor Claudia Valentina has released “Candy,” a daring new single that reshapes Kelis’ “Milkshake” into a slow-burning, alt-pop anthem packed with attitude. Out now via Electric Feel, the track is a confident exploration of power, pleasure, and transformation.
“Candy” keeps the flirtation of the original hook but wraps it in brooding beats and edgy vocal flair. “I like to release music the same way I make it, what I feel like at the time ‘cause a bad bitch can be many things in one day and ‘Candy’ is like a taste of that other side. Ear candy moments, ‘cause boring pop gives me the ick,” says Claudia.
The music video for “Candy” expands her artistic world even further. With a visual mood board years in the making, Claudia leads a pack of fierce women through an open field and down a rugged road in a scene that fuses style, speed, and subversion. “The video for ‘Candy’ I’ve had on my mood board for around 6 years, and for it to finally come to life feels super exciting,” she notes.
The track follows a string of standout singles—“Cry Them Dry,” “When I’m High,” and “Diamonds On My Teeth”—all expected to feature on Claudia’s upcoming EP. With “Candy,” she pushes her creative boundaries even further, offering fans a taste of what’s next in her ever-evolving artistry.
