We had the good fortune of connecting with Malik Corleone and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Malik, what role has risk played in your life or career?
Risk equals reward. Those who play it safe don’t experience all the benefits of life. You have to take risks to be successful, especially when chasing dreams. Taking risks got me to where I am today and I still have to take more risks if I want to continue elevating.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I believe my vision, work ethic, and creativity/versatility separates me from a lot of people. I’m proud of the obstacles I was able to overcome on my journey, most of them I went through alone. Success or chasing a dream is never easy. There are a lot of sleepless nights, foggy days, mental hurdles, doubt, lack there of, the list goes on. The key is staying on your path and believing in yourself and following through. I learned patience, resilience, and sacrifice is necessary when you trying to beat the odds. I am a global recording artist (Google me). My brand is authentic, relatable, and consistent. My music is real, pain driven but inspiring and versatile. Check out my latest single releases, “LSU”, “GO!”, and “SOLO”, on all streaming platforms.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
ATL got hella good food spots. I would definitely take them to Backyard Grill on Cascade, Peach Cobbler Cafe, The Bando Wings, etc. Prolly take them to Magic City or Blue Flame too they got good food.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
God, my family, fans, all my supporters, and even the doubters get credit for where I am today.
