Valentine is a genre-fluid recording artist, singer- songwriter, rapper, performer, mixed martial artist and actor whose work bridges musical innovation, live performance and elite athletic discipline. Renowned for his commanding stage presence and stylistic versatility, he moves seamlessly between Drum & Bass, UK Garage, Dance, Hip-Hop, R&B, Country and Soul, positioning himself as a contemporary artist with both creative depth and commercial resonance.

With nearly a decade of professional experience across multiple sectors of the entertainment industry, Valentine has cultivated a distinctive artistic identity grounded in authenticity, adaptability and performance excellence. His former catalogue had amassed millions of streams across major digital platforms, while his live performance résumé includes supporting internationally acclaimed, Grammy Award-winning artists and writing for the United Nations in support of the Global Sustainable Development Goals, reinforcing his reputation as a dynamic and compelling live act.

Valentine’s artistic foundation began in theatre, where early stage roles shaped his expressive performance style and instinct for storytelling. He then expanded into short film and screen acting, bringing the same emotional intensity and range that define his music and live performances. This cross-disciplinary approach continues to inform his evolving creative vision, allowing him to connect with audiences through a powerful synthesis of sound, narrative and presence.

Valentine also established himself as a formidable up and coming mixed martial artist, maintaining an unbeaten record and developing a flow-state precision across MMA, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Muay Thai and K1. His debut bout at London’s iconic O2 Arena earned both Fight of the Night and Submission of the Night honours, culminating in a professional contract offer. However, his trajectory in combat sports was abruptly halted following a serious road traffic accident, forcing him to prioritise recovery and long-term health before any potential return to competition, thus leading him into the start of his professional music career.

Collaborating initially with his brother and a close friend, Valentine gained early radio support through BBC Introducing with a garage remix of Baby Cakes. As his collaborators moved on to other priorities, he continued independently, later signing his first management deal under the moniker Valentine B. During this period, his catalogue surpassed one million streams and he began building a strong grassroots following across his home county of Kent.

After realising the deal he had once entered in hope to transform his life ultimately ended in heartbreak and uncertainty and baring a heavy struggle with it, at a time that coincided in personal struggle and homlessness and having his catalgoue sent into the abyss, V stepped away from music to focus on his mental, physical and emotional health. Four Years Later he has re-emerged with renewed clarity and purpose under the definitive name Valentine. A reference to his birth on Valentine’s Day. Since his return, he has garnered support from influential figures across the UK music landscape, including Professor Green, DJ Ironik, Ayo Beatz, Soft Play and more, signalling his re-establishment as a rising creative force.
