Artist: Mali Music Album: Mali Is... (2014) Though his background is in gospel, Mali Music is not here to preach. The 26-year-old singer (born Kortney Jamaal Pollard) piqued the interest of his longtime followers when he announced that his third LP, Mali Is..., would be secular project. The result: A wholesome listen thats heavy on food for thought and seasoned with a pinches of the good word. Mali is here to provide you with the messages and melodies to get you through this thing called life, which he constantly reminds you is golden (see the nod to optimists on the lead single, Beautiful). Mali Musics goal is to encourage listeners with biblical perspectives: Live righteously, have faith, love others as God loves us and love yourself. He wisely turns cameos away on Mali Is..., keeping his own soulfully textured voice and spiritual raps at the center. Mali has a versatile delivery. As the themes of the album may be consistent, the production isn’t—and that’s a good thing. He takes us on a ride as his handpicked instrumentals show that even though he was raised in the church, hes heavily inspired by other genres. He taps into ‘70’s soul, modern R&B, reggae.
