Luke Valentine

Luke Valentine is part of a new wave of R&B artists reshaping the late-night side of the genre. At 24, he’s been developing his sound since 2019, building a style rooted in dark R&B while blending it with alternative textures and modern R&B influences. His music sits in that space where intimacy, tension, and vulnerability meet — slow-burning records that feel cinematic, sensual, and built for the quiet hours. Influenced by artists like Brent Faiyaz, Chase Shakur, Odeal, and 6LACK, Luke leans into moody production, smooth vocals, and emotionally direct songwriting. His records often explore modern relationships, late-night connections, and the blurred lines between romance, desire, and detachment. Part of a new generation redefining what R&B can sound like today, Luke represents the darker, more atmospheric edge of the genre — the kind of music that turns the late hours into a soundtrack.
