Valee

Valee, a rapper, singer, and songwriter known for his unique trap sound, officially launched his career in 2015 with his first song, ‘Cash Don’t Bend,’ a collaboration with Ty Money. This marked the beginning of a prolific independent period that saw the release of five projects: ’12:12′ (2015), ‘1:11’ (2016), ‘2:22′ (2016), ’12:12 Again’ (2016), and ‘1988’ (2017), solidifying his underground presence. His distinctive style and growing body of work caught the attention of Pusha T, then president of Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music label, leading to his signing with G.O.O.D.

After parting ways with G.O.O.D. Music in 2019, Valee continued his prolific output as an independent artist, releasing the surprise EP ‘Runnin’ Rich’ the same year, which featured collaborations with G Herbo, King Louie, and Vic Mensa, demonstrating his continued influence and peer respect. During this period, he also expanded his collaborative efforts, working with notable artists such as DRAM, Matt Ox, and Lil Yachty, and made a distinct appearance on YG’s critically acclaimed album ‘4Real 4Real’. Maintaining his distinctive presence in the music landscape, Valee released ‘VACABULAREE’ in 2022, further showcasing his unique sound and lyrical prowess.

He continued to cement his collaborative artistry in 2023 with ‘Virtuoso,’ a joint project alongside acclaimed producer Harry Fraud, and followed with ‘VALEEDATION,’ in collaboration with MVW, both projects highlighting his ongoing evolution and diverse artistic partnerships within the industry.
