I’m over the moon to share that I’m on the cover of Monaco Muse this December! Honestly, I feel so blessed and honored. This marks my sixth cover in just four months, and I can’t believe how fast this whirlwind journey has unfolded.
For me, it’s always been about staying true to my craft—whether I’m in the studio recording, scoring a film, or pouring my heart into a publication. It’s all about making something meaningful and connecting with people. Being featured on a magazine like Monaco Muse is just one of those surreal moments that reminds me why I love what I do.
Kaylene Peoples Cover Story Monaco Muse December 2024
This past year has been nothing short of incredible. From producing my upcoming album Romantic Bossa-Nova 2 to diving into the exciting spy-jazz vibes of Doppelganger, I’ve been lucky to collaborate with some truly amazing talents. And now, seeing my work highlighted on this cover feels like the perfect way to end 2024.
“As a creative force, Kaylene Peoples is driven by a deep connection to the emotional core of music. From her early days as a ghostwriter for television to her current status as a global jazz icon, her journey is a testament to resilience, passion, and reinvention.” —Monaco Muse
I’m also thrilled to share that on November 10th, I was honored with two major awards at the 2024 Olympia Arts Awards. Receiving these accolades, along with medals and certificates signed by the State Legislature, was a monumental moment in my career.
Thank you to Monaco Muse for this feature and for celebrating my artistic journey. I’m so grateful to everyone who has supported me along the way—it’s been a dream year, and I’m looking forward to everything the new year will bring!

Well, needless to say, I’m thrilled. It’s been an incredible few months of recognition. Starting in August 2024, I’ve been cover story for several publications, and now, in October, Cosmopolitan UAE reached out to do a story on my career journey. The article covers everything—from my music to publishing and filmmaking, as well as my upcoming projects. It’s such an honor to be on their cover.
As for recent projects, I just released Vampire Odyssey, my neoclassical album, which has been a significant milestone. And as always, there’s more in the works. A friend recently reminded me that I’ve been juggling multi-disciplines at a high level my entire life. I’ve been so immersed in doing what I love, I never stopped to think about how it looks from the outside. While I’ve been told more than once that I’m “doing too much,” I’ve never dropped a ball. Sure, I’ve faced my share of setbacks—who hasn’t? But those challenges make us stronger. If everything were easy, we wouldn’t have the drive to improve.
“Kaylene Peoples is a powerhouse in the worlds of music, film, and publishing. With a career that spans multiple decades, Peoples has not only garnered attention for her extraordinary talent but also her ability to innovate across several creative industries. From being an award-winning jazz and Bossa-nova artist to a filmmaker and publisher, Kaylene Peoples is, in every sense, a Renaissance woman who thrives in creativity and versatility.”

But back to Cosmo! Their feature dives into my multifaceted career, and it’s exciting to see how it all comes together in one narrative. I’ve always believed in following my passions without letting others’ opinions hold me back. And this cover story feels like a reflection of that journey.
