Expression Over Reaction: Vince & The Valholla Empire and Miami-Based Rapper Stide Prince Share a New Collaboration
There is a particular kind of strength that doesn’t announce itself. It lives in the pause before the response, in the breath taken instead of the word hurled. Temperature, the new single from rotating collective Vince & The Valholla Empire featuring Haitian-American rapper Stide Prince, is a study in exactly that kind of strength. It is dark, deliberate, and quietly devastating: a piece of music that sounds less like a statement and more like a reckoning.
The track arrives courtesy of Valholla Records, the Miami-founded independent label and creative force that has been operating on its own terms since 2005. This latest release is the product of a deliberate intention from label chairman and lead producer Vince Valholla, who has made South Florida collaboration a guiding principle of his work this year. Stide Prince, a Miami rapper shaped by the city’s raw underbelly and its relentless creative energy, was a natural choice: an artist who built his name through battle circuits and street performances before sharing stages with Pusha T, Nas, Fabolous, and The Diplomats.
“I wanted to make sure I made it a point to collaborate with as many artists from South Florida as possible this year. I’ve always wanted to work with Stide Prince... He delivered something perfect for the mood of it.” -Vince Valholla, Chairman & CEO, Valholla Worldwide
The production, co-crafted by Vince and frequent collaborator Chris Angel, does the rare thing that great dark hip-hop instrumentation can: it creates a space where confession feels inevitable. The beat doesn’t push. It holds. It is the kind of sonic environment that rewards a certain kind of lyricist, someone who understands that restraint, deployed correctly, hits harder than fury.

I wanted to make sure I made it a point to collaborate with as many artists from South Florida as possible this year. I’ve always wanted to work with Stide Prince and I send him a beat that Chris Angel and I produced. He delivered something perfect for the mood of it everyone involved can’t wait to share this one.
It’s called ‘Temperature’ and it drops at midnight. Vince & The Valholla Empire + Stide Prince.

Kirby Maurier’s “Da Lick,” featuring J Nics, was a standout track on her debut EP, Class of ‘96, released on February 14, 2012. The accompanying music video follows Kirby as she plans a high-stakes heist.
The video was shot and co-directed by Vince Valholla, who has lensed many music videos throughout his career, often uncredited.
Class of ‘96 features creative flips of rap songs originally released in 1996. The project was loved by listeners all over the world, boasting over 250,000 downloads in its first week.
Some songs ask for another chance. “Luh” doesn’t. Las Vegas-born singer-songwriter Natalie Kalei arrives on her latest release not with a plea, but with a declaration. One born from the wreckage of toxic cycles and the hard-earned clarity that comes after.
Produced by frequent collaborators The Track Burnaz, “Luh” also reunites Natalie with Vince & The Valholla Empire for their second collaboration together.

Artists have more leverage today than at any other time in history. Our company saw this coming in 2015 when we shifted to offering distribution and label services.
Today, all three major labels offer these same services through companies they’ve acquired, giving artists more choices than ever to get their music onto global platforms.
We anticipated this trend as well. In 2023, we evolved our business model to what we call “Label is the Artist.” The philosophy behind this change is simple: it allows us to collaborate with a wide range of talent on singles, projects, or full-length albums without strings attached.
Expect to see new collaborations throughout the year as we expand this vision for the future of Valholla.
