Updated: Wikipedia source
Victoria Beverley Walker (born 19 April 2001), known professionally as PinkPantheress, is a British singer-songwriter and record producer. She is known for her diaristic lyrics and eclectic mix of genres including alternative pop, drum and bass and UK garage, often sampling music from the 1990s and 2000s. She was named Producer of the Year by Billboard Women in Music in 2024, and received accolades such as nominations for three Brit Awards and two Grammy Awards. Born in Bath, Somerset, and raised in Kent, PinkPantheress began her musical career in 2021 while attending university in London, where she produced songs using GarageBand and posted them on SoundCloud and TikTok. Several of them, including "Break It Off", became popular on TikTok, and she signed to Parlophone and Elektra Records and released her debut mixtape To Hell with It later that year. She won BBC's Sound of 2022 poll after the singles "Just for Me" and "Pain" peaked in the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart. Her 2022 single "Boy's a Liar" reached number two in the UK. PinkPantheress's debut studio album, Heaven Knows (2023), spawned the UK top-20 song "Nice to Meet You" and the remix single "Boy's a Liar Pt. 2" with American rapper Ice Spice, which peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. Heaven Knows was accompanied by her headlining Capable of Love Tour the following year. Her second mixtape, Fancy That (2025), earned two Grammy nominations and spawned the UK top-40 singles "Tonight" and "Illegal".
