Victoria Beverley Walker (born 18 April 2001), known professionally as PinkPantheress, is an English singer, songwriter, and record producer. Her songs, which are frequently short in length and include samples of music from the 1990s and 2000s, span a number of genres, including alt-pop, bedroom pop, drum and bass, and 2-step garage. She has been nominated for three Brit Awards and was named Producer of the Year by Billboard Women in Music in 2024.
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, while its 2023 remix with American rapper Ice Spice peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2023, PinkPantheress released her debut album Heaven Knows, which was accompanied by her headlining Capable of Love Tour the following year.
Early life
Victoria Beverley Walker[1] was born on 18 April 2001[2] in Bath, Somerset,[3] to a KenyanLuo mother from Kisumu,[4] who works as a carer, and an English father, who works as a statistics professor.[5][6] She has one older brother, who works as an audio engineer. When she was five years old, her family moved from Bath to Canterbury, Kent, where she grew up.[7] Her father moved to the United States to work at a university in Austin, Texas when she was 12 years old, while she and her mother stayed in England.[8]
Walker took piano lessons as a child, and, at age 12, sang "Stand by Me" by Ben E. King at a school talent show. When she was 14 years old, she became the lead singer in a rock band, which covered songs by My Chemical Romance, Paramore, and Green Day, and performed with them for the first time at a school fête.[5][7][9]
Walker started writing music in high school to help a friend before eventually writing music on her own.[3] At age 17, she began using GarageBand to produce instrumentals for her friend, fellow singer Mazz, and she later used GarageBand to record many of her early songs while lying down in her university hall late at night.[10][12][13] She started uploading original songs of hers to SoundCloud as PinkPantheress, where they received little attention. After a video posted to her personal TikTok account in December 2020 received over 500,000 likes, she posted a snippet of her song "Just a Waste", which used the instrumental from Michael Jackson's song "Off the Wall", as PinkPantheress later that month in the hopes of reaching a wider audience; the snippet soon went viral on the platform.[6][9][14]
Two of PinkPantheress's songs, the Adam F-sampling "Break It Off" and the Sweet Female Attitude-sampling "Pain", went viral on TikTok in early 2021, with the latter peaking at number 35 on the UK Singles Chart in August of that year.[10][15][16] She was signed to Parlophone in April 2021. In June 2021, she was featured on GoldLink's song "Evian" from his studio album Haram! and signed to Elektra Records.[17][18][19] After a snippet of her song "Just for Me", produced by Mura Masa, gained attention on TikTok, she released it in August 2021, along with a music video co-directed by her and released the following month.[20] On the UK Singles Chart, it peaked at number 27, making it her highest entry on the UK Singles Chart at the time.[21][22] It earned PinkPantheress nominations for an iHeartRadio Music Award, an Ivor Novello Award, and two NME Awards.[23][24][25] In early October 2021, she announced the release date and title of her debut mixtape, To Hell with It, which was released on 15 October 2021 through Parlophone and Elektra Records and debuted at number 20 on the UK Albums Chart.[26][27] The mixtape was preceded by "Pain", "Break It Off", and "Just for Me" as singles, as well as "Passion", released in July 2021, and "I Must Apologise", released in October 2021.[28][29][30] PinkPantheress performed live for the first time in October and November 2021 in London.[31][32]
In October 2023, PinkPantheress announced her debut album, Heaven Knows, which was released on 10 November 2023.[61] The lead single from the album, "Mosquito", was released on 29 September, followed by the second single "Capable of Love" on 12 October.[62] That same month, she announced the Capable of Love Tour for the United Kingdom and Europe, spanning from February–April 2024,[63][64] with North American dates added later on in November. The North American leg was produced by Live Nation.[65][66] She performed as an opener on Olivia Rodrigo's Guts World Tour in the summer of 2024 until announcing the cancellation of all of her remaining live performances in August of that year, citing health reasons.[67][68]
PinkPantheress's music has been described as pop,[74]bedroom pop,[75][28]dance,[29]alt-pop,[76][77]drum and bass,[19]2-step,[78]jungle, and hyperpop,[10] and often uses samples of other songs, such as dance music from the 1990s and 2000s and jungle, funk, UK garage, and pop songs.[71][79][80] PinkPantheress uses topline writing to write her songs, which are frequently self-produced and short in length.[17][81] She has described her own music as alt-pop and "a form of D'n'B that's acceptable to listen to at home",[8] and has stated that she writes "sadder", "dark" lyrics to "appeal to the youth",[82] often to contrast them with her "happy instrumentals".[83] PinkPantheress has said that her lyrics are usually not based on personal experiences, stating, "A lot of it just comes because I really like storytelling."[9]
NPR's Vanessa Handy called breakbeat loops a "signature of [PinkPantheress's] work",[84] while Kieran Press-Reynolds of Insider also wrote that her songs regularly have "fast-paced breakbeats" and "ASMR-like refrains".[85]Rolling Stone's Keegan Brady described PinkPantheress's music as "alt-girl rap" and wrote that she uses "confessional, almost treacly rap-singing" and "dated production technology" in her songs which "tap[s] into a deeply nostalgic sound that conjures the height of Nineties U.K. culture".[80]DIY's Georgia Evans called her "DIY aesthetic that started as GarageBand experimentation" a signature of her music.[70]
The Guardian's Michael Cragg described PinkPantheress's vocals as "sweet but unsettling",[74] while Jon Caramanica of The New York Times wrote that she "sounds like she's flirting and aching all at once."[86] Cat Zhang of Pitchfork called PinkPantheress's voice "angelic", "girlish", and "slight" and wrote that she was "one of the rare TikTok artists whose internet fame seems proportional to their potential".[79] Felicity Martin of Dazed called her lyrics "sad" and "wistful".[12] Writing for Nylon, Steffanee Wang called her music "a collage of sounds that fell [sic] simultaneously dated and contemporary", adding that listening to it "feels like being on the internet before social media was a thing".[87]Insider's Kieran Press-Reynolds wrote that PinkPantheress gave up-tempo electronic music genres like drum and bass an "introspective, romantic bedroom sound" with her "hushed" vocals.[85]
Personal life
Walker has discussed experiencing body dysmorphia from a young age.[45] She also suffers from gradual hearing loss from exposure to loud music and microphone feedback. She reported being 80% deaf in her right ear in 2022.[43][88] Walker revealed her medical condition while appearing on The Louis Theroux Podcast. Walker's hearing has been altered: "[V]oices now sound mostly like bass ... due to the damage."[89] She states that the damage began with early noticeable signs of tinnitus, or the sensation of ringing sounds in the ear.[89] As a producer, Walker is not stopped by the condition, though it has made her role as someone who listens to and crafts sound-as-music more difficult. "To state the obvious, making music has gotten harder ... But I honestly did all my mourning already."[43]

Proof in set theory An illustration of Cantor's diagonal argument (in base 2) for the existence of uncountable sets. The sequence at the bottom cannot occur anywhere in the enumeration of sequences above. An infinite set may have the same cardinality as a proper subset of itself, as the depicted bijection f(x)=2x from the natural to the even numbers demonstrates. Nevertheless, infinite sets of different cardinalities exist, as Cantor's diagonal argument shows. Cantor's diagonal argument (amon...
