Where is mali music singer from

Also, transitioning from one side of the game to the other side of the game, in which one side seems to be all about souls and the other side seems to be all about the money. It showed me there was an in-between thing and that it was content that was made for companies and then it was content that was made for success or for the people and to identify the difference.

Bussing Heads! I was so moved by the progression of the beat and just doubled and tripled up on the notes. My goal was to be very vulnerable on the song, with it still being tasteful and swaggy. I attacked the song with a certain type of confidence by saying this jams and it does.

You already know what that line is about! We all get pulled left from the mission in life. Not literally but whatever the distraction is, you have to cut it out of your life. I was envisioning myself or whatever my issue was. That line was pretty much telling myself, man cut it. Go back to talking to God, do whatever you have to do to get back to the mission.

In a sense, I was cutting my hurt out, the one thing that was holding me back. So, I ultimately had to kill myself and the hurt I was holding on to, in order to let go. As an artist your responsibility is to convey a story through your artistry and impact others.

With the loss of the late great Kobe Bryant and seeing how impactful his life and his legacy has had on the world how has this affected and made an impact on you in ways of wanting to be a better artist? As a journalist it's been interesting that when I've talked to great musicians, quite often they're aware that their music comes from outside of themselves, but if they're not Christians, they can't define what that is. Does Mali Music think that it's interesting that this is out there for musicians?

Whether it's through my eyes, ears, smelling or even tasting something, the inspiration is given and the concept is built. I was walking down the street and I almost stepped on something that was moving real slow. It looked like a little black thing that was moving around. When I got closer, I saw that it was a caterpillar covered in ants.

They were transporting it somewhere. That killed me! It was powerful. The caterpillar was a million times the size of one of them, but all of them were lugging that badboy down the sidewalk. That inspired me and I started thinking.

I saw how small iniquity is, with a little choice here and a little choice there. Next thing you know, it overtakes you. I heard the song 'Slow Fade' by Casting Crowns. I wrote a song from that. That's how it happens - there's a little portal you can go into, so when you're not with God you get the same inspiration.

The portal opens up but you might not be able to get out of it. That's how a lot of guys lose their minds. Same thing with actors and people who can play other things. They take it in and can go into that world, even never having been there, and respond and act like that. I don't have to be in the situation. I could hear someone's testimony, think on it long enough, and I'll almost have to convince myself that I'm not in that condition, so I can write from that heart.

What about having a life as a regular person? Is it possible for Mali Music to have conversations with people where he's not talking about music? It's either got to be really deep, as far as God or something intellectual, or it's got to be about football or music. I hang out with my band members. They are my best friends. But a lot of my friends from school are my football family. In the gig, it's amazing to see the vibe that he creates. It seems that there are plenty of people who have imported the album already and know the words as Mali Music takes time to use his songs to bring some funky grooves and then suddenly he's brought the audience to a place of intimate worship.

In an effort to ensure music lovers did not have to dig in their crates to find quality songs, he created a sound that brought the same level of substance, while adding a whole new modern feel. When he decided to switch over to mainstream, he was met with backlash from his Christian following, but he wholeheartedly believes it was something God called him to do. Follow Us. Skip to content.
