PinkPantheress

PinkPantheress, the stage name of Victoria Beverley Walker, is a British singer-songwriter and record producer whose compact, sample-driven pop songs have brought R&B, drum and bass, UK garage, house and alternative pop into close contact. Her productions often draw on music from the 1990s and 2000s, paired with stream-of-consciousness lyrics and a light vocal delivery. She made history as the youngest person and first woman to receive the Brit Award for British Producer of the Year.

Born in Bath, Somerset, she was raised in Kent and began making music while attending university in London in 2021. Working with GarageBand, she posted songs to SoundCloud and TikTok, where tracks including “Break It Off” found an audience. She subsequently signed with Parlophone and Elektra Records and released her debut mixtape, To Hell with It, later that year.

Her early singles established her as a fast-rising voice in British pop. “Just for Me” and “Pain” reached the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart in 2022, while “Boy’s a Liar” reached number two. A remix, “Boy’s a Liar Pt. 2,” featuring Ice Spice, became a major international hit, peaking at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100.

PinkPantheress released her debut studio album, Heaven Knows, in 2023. The album charted in ten countries and included “Nice to Meet You,” a collaboration with Central Cee that reached the UK top 20. Her second mixtape, Fancy That, followed in 2025 and reached number three on the UK Albums Chart. Its singles “Tonight” and “Stateside” entered the UK top 40, while “Illegal” became her second US chart entry. The “Stateside + Zara Larsson” remix with Zara Larsson gave her a second US top-ten hit and her first number one on the Billboard Global 200.
