Kenyan-American artist Vallerie Muthoni is set to release her much-anticipated EP, Vision 2020, on September 20, 2024. The project, her third EP, promises to cement her status as a genre-fluid superstar on the brink of global stardom.
Vision 2020 is an eight-track exploration of self-realization, growth, manifestation, love, and lust, all viewed through the clear lens of Vallerie’s unique perspective.
Drawing from her experiences during the transformative post-COVID period from 2020 to 2024, the EP captures the essence of her journey as both an artist and a young African woman navigating a rapidly changing world.
“Vision 2020 is more than just music; it’s a manifestation of my journey over the past five years,” says Vallerie Muthoni. “It’s an expression of the growth, love, and self-realization that have shaped who I am today. I wanted to create something that resonates with people on a deep level, something that’s as reflective as it is uplifting.”
The EP includes previously released singles such as ‘Dolla Signs,’ a hip-hop anthem for aspiring billionaires, and ‘SEXY,’ which has already amassed over 870,000 views on YouTube. The Afro-pop lovers’ anthem ‘Say Something’ featuring Bien-Aime Alusa of Sauti Sol, further showcases Vallerie’s ability to seamlessly blend genres, infusing Afro-pop with rap and alternative R&B.
In addition to her musical prowess, Vallerie is a multi-faceted creative force who has shared stages with global sensations such as Burna Boy, Nasty C, Sauti Sol, and Lady Leshurr. Her directorial and stylistic contributions to her own music videos, such as the viral hit ‘SEXY,’ demonstrate her visionary approach to her artistry.
Notably, her creative talents have also earned her prestigious sync placements and features in high-profile campaigns, such as Pharrell’s OTHERtone produced podcast and a L’Oréal East Africa digital campaign.
With Vision 2020, Vallerie Muthoni takes listeners on an intimate journey, blending her storytelling skills with powerful visuals and genre-fluid sounds that defy categorization. This project is not just a reflection of her past experiences but a bold declaration of her future as a global music icon.
As the world eagerly awaits the release of Vision 2020, Vallerie Muthoni stands poised to not only capture the hearts of fans but also to redefine what it means to be a global superstar in the 21st century. With her undeniable talent, charisma, and creative vision, Vallerie is on the brink of achieving the kind of global stardom that only a few can dream of.
