Malik Rose

Hailing from Marrero, Louisiana, Malik Rose was raised in a single mother household. With his mother always away at work, he became a free-thinker and independent person at a very young age. Channeling his thoughts to paper, he became interested in how certain rappers put their words together and painted a vivid picture. Artist such as Biggie, Jay-Z and J. Cole, were major influences for him throughout his teenage years. He appeared on his first song “New Day” during the Summer of 2015 but it wasn’t until 2016 that he began taking rap seriously. He debuted his first mixtape entitled “Detox” on September 13, 2017 which received great reviews and showed his great potential early on. Malik Rose accumulated a local buzz after dropping the video to his song False Profit ( J. Cole remix) which led to radio play for his song Fly Away, international performances, etc. He released his second project Imagine Forever shortly after relocating to Los Angeles, CA in July 2018. This project showed much growth in his skill, overall sound, and versatility. Tracks like Passion and Smoking Session gained major stream over the next several months, while working quietly and going to school full time. Malik resurfaced with a new song entitled Star in May 2019 which was featured on several major playlist, including press from The Source magazine.
