Bedroom pop singer-songwriter Valley Sixteen embraces themes of love, loss and self-discovery, and for YVNG & FREE, our our celebration of South Africa's most exciting next-gen artists, she’s put together hits from a collection of artists who match her energy—including Mpho.wav, Sun-El Musician, Karyendasoul, Bakai, Citizen Deep, Kasango and more. “I’ve had the privilege of working with most of the artists on my playlist in person, and hearing their stories and how they've built themselves from the ground up is incredibly inspiring,” Valley Sixteen tells Apple Music. “They embody the spirit that I believe the artists of tomorrow need, the drive to achieve more with their God-given talent, while trusting the process and believing in themselves above all. They spread that message to everyone who listens, with the hope of continuing to inspire the next generation of artists.”
