Malik Yusef – The Matte Blaque Experience Episode 1: The Ballad Of An American Dope Boy: White Horse (Album Download).
Malik Yusef drops his new album called The Matte Blaque Experience Episode 1. Malik is an American spoken word artist, poet, musician, film producer and actor whom the rap community might recognize from his Grammy Award winning productions, in addition to his intimate friendship with Kanye West.
Now, Malik is ready to show the world he’s a recording artist first, above all else.
Arriving at A List & Co. for his Netflix filming concert and
documentary/album listening, Malik proudly repped his brand new, all-white Yeezy’s on his feet, sneakers that Ye had just gifted him via snail mail.
AllHipHop caught up with Malik Yusef to discuss his current projects and his time with Ye, including the rapper’s recent appearance on “Saturday Night Live.”
People are always online saying, “Malik, he just around Kanye ‘cause he a dope dealer. ‘Cause he had the money to put on Kanye, he a gangsta,” and all that s##t. I’m like, “I am an artist too.”
That’s why I’m not just on these records just because I was around, I really contribute. Melodically, from a production standpoint, from a lyrical standpoint, I really contribute to these projects. I also inspired the conversations to elevate the topics that we talk about. I’m not just some dude hanging around.
The creative process for me is just being around the best creators possible. Them bringing out the best of me and me bringing out the best in them. It’s a war to get to the beautiful stuff. It’s not easy.
