The Dominican-born, New York City-raised singer and songwriter is one of those artists who during isolation managed to finalise the production of his upcoming EP, titled Pajaro Malo, out December 1st, as well as shooting the accompanying set of visuals with photographer Brian Vu for its first single, the ZorenLo-produced Solo.
Valentin is a Latinx queer artist who was born in the Dominican Republic and raised in Washington Heights, New York City. It’s this multicultural background and the exposure to New York’s rich and creative underground scene that result in his music successfully taking us on a journey through a variety of different genres, from dembow to pop to techno. He first burst into the scene back in 2017 with his single and video for No Mas, which saw him deconstructing masculinity and making it his own.
