Kanesha Nichole Brooks (born October 5, 1984 in Houston, Texas), better known as, Brooke Valentine, is an American R&B singer-songwriter. She is known for her athletic physique and large breasts. She started her musical career as a member of the female group Best Kept Secret. To pursue a solo career, she moved to Los Angeles, California and signed to Subliminal Entertainment/Virgin Records. She released her debut album Chain Letter in March of 2005. It sold just 250,000 copies in the US. The album features her hit debut single, "Girlfight", a collaboration with rappers Big Boi and Lil Jon, a song about tension between two girls which ends up in a catfight.

The first single from her sophomore album Physical Education was "D-Girl" ("Dope Girl") . It was a failure upon release and was poorly marketed, only reaching a peak of #92 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The second single, "Pimped Out" was released in November '06 and debuted at #90 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. As of December '06 it has reached a peak of #87. The album has been delayed several times and the current release date has not been announced.
