Jaye Valentine

Jaye's 20 minute set at the Taste of Soul Music & Food Festival in Atlanta, Georgia was breathtaking! Between the energetic choreography, background dancers, amazing live vocals, and THREE (yes THREE) outfit changes, there was never a dull moment. And some sort of way a sexy, half naked cowboy was also thrown in the mix. You had to be there! Jaye's performance was sponsored by the ever-so-dope MakinItMag team who continue to provide awesome opportunities for the independent artist.

Earlier in the year, Jaye was spotlighted in the 'Thought-provokers' series of 'Voyage Houston' - a trendy online magazine that highlights the best of Houston. The article provided Jaye with the opportunity to tell her unique story and offer words of wisdom to those aspiring to travel a similar journey. Stay tuned as we hear rumors of Jaye collaborating with some music powerhouses and getting back in the lab to work on her next project. We can't wait to see what's next for this talented songstress!

Jaye Valentine just wrapped up her tour for America's most beloved department store, Macy's. The tour, powered by Radar Live, spanned Washington DC, Philadelphia and Boston. The show also featured two time Grammy nominated artist Keri Hilson, singer Sam Tsui and pop duo Heffron Drive. Jaye debuted her new single, 'O Holy Night' produced by multi-platinum and Grammy nominated producer D. Bottz and is available on iTunes, Tidal and most popular music platforms. What a way to kick off the holiday season!

'Sunday in Houston' is a comedy film about a Mississippi native Dre (Kalum Johnson) who visits the Clutch City and gets into trouble with his cousin Tray (Cedric “ESG” Hill). The movie highlights Houston culture with special appearances from Houston icons and celebrities including Mike D, Lil' Keke, K-Rino, rising star Jaye Valentine and many more. Directed by Squrilla Montana, the movie premiered in the River Oaks theater on the 'Screwston' holiday of June 27 and is slated for DVD release in 2019.

The Houston Rising Star Awards is a black history initiative honoring African Americans in TV, film and radio. Jaye Valentine opened the show with footage on lynching in America and how "Strange Fruit", originally sang by Billie Holiday, turned the horror into a symbol of hope. Jaye sang the powerful tune, but in true Jaye fashion, ended on a high note with "Best Part" by Daniel Caesar and H.E.R. Award recipients included Rudy Rush (Chapelle Show, Comedy Central) and Amir Diamond (93.7 The Beat Houston).

We have heard Houston's Jaye Valentine belt out that she is every woman with her single, "Alter Ego". We then watched as the songstress empowered women to be initiators with her R&B / Pop hit "This Night Only". Now the singer is revealing a more vulnerable side with the release of her third single and associated visual from her EP SPECTRUM entitled, "Won't Ya Bae". The song is a plea for Jaye's leading man to do more than tell her he loves her, but to prove his commitment through action.
