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

Hi Malcotelli, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
Simple answer. I am an artist at heart. A composer, arranger, producer, a writer, a vocalist and musician. My story is complex and took a bunch of twists and turns to get here but who’s isn’t? That’s life. Now it’s just about stepping into my purpose.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I make my own stuff… everything… my own beats ( which really deserves credit if I say so my self. ) and I am super passionate and energetic in the booth and it resonates in all my songs. As for my beat making ability, as much of everything in life is fueled by ego. Think Kanye West, Travis Scott and Michael Jackson all in one… the best way to describe my attitude and approach to how I make music and just my creative process in general.

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.
Well I’m from south Florida via Senegal, West Africa so it really depends on where I am. If we in WPB we getting hooks and if we in DK we getting Mawa’s… these are all good places btw lol. We got a really big monument in DK and we got the hard rock down in south Florida.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Well this journey started with my parents… but I definitely have to shout out FTB Bran, Junior Millus, Beezy, Hustle on the track, Taog and President Jacc. Not to mention Roxy from Bleachhouse Studio’s. I could go on and on but many people in some way have helped, assisted or influenced me.
